Varieties of mechanisms

The transforming furniture is equipped with swing-out mechanisms, each of which has its own disadvantages and advantages:

• Retractable mechanism. Differs in ease of management and safety. In models with such a device, there is usually a place for placing bed linen.
• Folding mechanism. It is dangerous that during transformation it can fall or pinch an arm or leg. Beds fixed to the wall are very space-saving when assembled and allow you to place built-in shelves above them.

In addition, the folding mechanisms can be gas-lift or spring-loaded. Spring loaders are considered more durable and reliable due to their simplicity. There is practically nothing to break in the spring. But some effort is needed to transform such devices, so it is not recommended for older people to purchase models with a spring device.

Gas-lift devices are not as reliable, but when correct operation will last long enough. Furniture with this mechanism unfolds without effort. The only drawback of a gas lift is that furniture with it is much more expensive.

Which of the described types of transformers to choose depends only on the preferences of the owner of the apartment and the possibility of accommodation. But there are some nuances to dwell on:

• Frame material. Transformers are made with a frame made of MDF, chipboard, wood or metal. Lately gained particular popularity metal constructions, distinguished by their reliability and durability. Wood is an environmentally friendly material that is not inferior in strength to metal. But chipboard and MDF are unreliable, it is better to refuse this option.

• The quality of the mattress. Usually the mattress comes in one set with furniture, but does not always meet the requirements of the buyer. If it is possible to purchase a mattress separately, you need to clarify its dimensions. They need to fit the size of the bed. Special attention should be given to children's mattresses, the child's posture will depend on the correct position in a dream. The best fillers mattresses are considered coconut fiber or latex foam.

• The size of the furniture. The length of the berth should correspond to the height of the person and have a margin of fifteen centimeters. To determine a comfortable width, you need to lie down and put your hands behind your head. If the elbows fit within the dimensions of the berth, it fits.

• Safety and structural strength. These parameters are especially important for a bed in a nursery.
