Furniture transformer for small. Big problems of small apartments

Transforming beds are gaining more and more popularity. Such furniture allows you to significantly save the space of a small-sized apartment without compromising the functionality of the room and not using additional pieces of furniture.

Features and Benefits

A transforming bed requires the most careful attitude towards itself, mainly due to a regularly operating lifting mechanism, which can break down due to its poor quality or from the fact that it has been treated carelessly. Therefore, it is important to think through all these points even before purchasing such an unusual piece of furniture. The main advantage of such furniture is that it can be used everywhere: in a large bedroom, a classic wardrobe bed can be decorated with a print or a mirrored panel, it will neatly fit into the room, providing maximum free space.

Chest of drawers are especially in demand in small apartments and studios. There is a large selection of models for children's rooms, from cots for the little ones with changing tables and convenient drawers to bunk beds for schoolchildren. Small transformers in the form of poufs, chairs and benches are used in offices where it may be necessary to stay to work overnight.

Varieties

Manufacturers offer the following variations of transforming beds:

Vertical design- "adult" double wardrobe-bed-transformer, the headboard of which is fixed against the wall, and the main part is placed at its entire height. The horizontal bed is designed to be used as a single bed, side-mounted to the wall. The advantage of the horizontal model is that the wall space remains unoccupied and pictures or shelves for books can be placed on it, in addition, when unfolded, it looks less cumbersome and takes up little space.

All transforming beds, based on their design features, can be divided into vertical and horizontal.

Convertible bed with roll-out berth- this is one of the simplest models: a spare bed is built into another. With its help, you can optimize the space, and the ability to organize a second bed will be available at any time.

Lifting folding convertible bed can be disguised as other furniture in the apartment, for example, by mounting it in a closet or wall. A pneumatic-based mechanism lifts it up and puts it in a specially designated place. Most often this is an adult double bed, but there are also similar models designed specifically for children. The mechanism itself is quite simple to use, and a school-age child will cope with it without difficulty.

Chest of drawers bed popular in studios or one-room apartments, ideal for single people who do not need to purchase an extra bed... With the help of a soft mechanical drive, it is pulled out of a special box, which in the daytime looks just like an ordinary chest of drawers. There is also the simplest folding model of such a bed, when it is simply removed into the box using a simple lifting mechanism.

One of the most interesting and eye-catching models is pouf bed... It is deservedly called the most modern clamshell in the world. When folded, it looks like a soft ottoman, the dimensions of which are very compact. But if you lift the lid, inside is the most common metal structure on legs with a comfortable mattress that slides out vertically. The model can be easily transformed back: you just need to fold it like a regular folding bed and put it inside the pouf.

Banquet bed It differs from the transformer pouf in even smaller dimensions, as well as the ability to organize two or three seats in any conditions in case of their shortage. When these three places are folded together, they can be used as a comfortable folding bed. Another difference from a pouf of a similar design is that in the first case, the folding bed is removed directly into the pouf, and in the case of a banquet bed, its complete transformation takes place.

Chair-bed is a modern modification of a folding chair, well known to the Russian consumer. The folding mechanism helps to push the bed on the metal frame forward. There are also very comfortable and pleasant to the touch types of such a chair with a frameless design: the soft mattress simply folds up or down, and the whole composition looks like a small soft chair without legs.

Bed with convertible headboard provides an opportunity to set the headboard in a position more comfortable for a person. You can raise this part of the bed so that it turns into a comfortable support for the back: in this position it is very good to read books or watch TV, while relaxing at home with variety and maximum comfort.

Bench bed made of wood or metal, but the best option is a wooden bench, which is a simple retractable structure that can be folded forward or on the principle of a sofa-book. The option is well suited for a summer residence. The main thing is that a good orthopedic mattress is always at hand: it will help organize an extra bed as best as possible.

For a schoolchild, one of the best options would be a children's transforming bed., in which two objects change places day and night: in the daytime, the bed rises up, and the table moves down. There is enough space under the table to store small items or toys. The advantage of this design is that order will always be maintained in the child's room and there will be enough free space for games.

Bunk bed-transformer will be a great option for two children in a family. This is a complex design solution that includes not only the sleeping places themselves. It is easy to imagine such a bed with bedside tables and shelves, which, thanks to a carefully thought-out composition, harmoniously fit into the overall picture.

The distance between the lower and upper tiers can be small, so if the berths are assembled, they will take up a minimum amount of space. Also, bunk beds for children can be folding. A pendulum bed for small children is the best way to rock a child without additional psychological costs. It is equipped with a pendulum-like mechanism that sets the crib in motion. The smart crib sways, rotates, and the baby falls asleep much faster.

Materials (edit)

First of all, when choosing, you should always pay attention to the quality of the materials from which the transforming bed is made. If the load is calculated incorrectly, then, together with "budget" types of materials, any model of this type can very quickly fail. In this case, you should not give preference to the usual Chipboard... It is better to opt for more durable models made of MDF, and if possible, then purchase a product made of natural wood. Two-thirds of the full load of such beds falls on its legs, so their optimal shape is the letter "G" or in the form of a wide board, which is capable of carrying a support.

Many people want to immediately purchase a transforming bed with a mattress in the complete set. Since the structures themselves are distinguished by a certain specificity and a great variety, it is not possible to complete each of them with a mattress: the bed moves daily, changing its location, and the mattress can simply fall, even if it is fixed with something.

It is not recommended to take the currently fashionable "ecological mattresses" for transformers: they are filled with coconut shavings, which, due to their weight, will create unnecessary additional stress on the bed mechanism. If manufacturing firms equip their beds with mattresses, then, as a rule, only from latex: they are orthopedic, do not deform (which is very important, provided the bed is constantly moving) and, most importantly, lightweight, which does not burden the mechanism.

Transforming bed frames are made from solid wood, often in combination with a strong metal alloy. There are also lighter beds on a metal frame, which facilitates their transformation both manually and using any lifting mechanism. Of course, the frame of the combined structure is both stronger and more aesthetically pleasing, but it requires more advanced bed raising and lowering mechanics that can support the weight of both wood and metal.

Portable models in the form of ottomans, benches or armchairs have flexible but durable metal frames.

Popular colors and examples in the interior

A wardrobe-transformer bed in white, beige or ivory, despite its large size, will look very delicate and create a feeling of airiness and lightness of the space for relaxation, despite the massiveness of such a structure. These color schemes are especially good when it comes to a separate bedroom.

One and a half double bed-transformer in wenge and dark blue color will look good in the interior of a studio apartment or living room combined with a bedroom. When folded, it will not differ from another piece of furniture (wardrobe or chest of drawers), and the dense and rich colors of this range will give the space an indescribable feeling of home comfort. Wenge of various shades is also preferable if it is planned to install a transformer of any design in a country house or in a country house.

In lime or honey color, you can arrange a two-story transforming bed for school-age children or a bed for a teenage girl.

Of course, a built-in transforming bed should not always be perceived as the only choice in those conditions when the living space is small. In the living room, this solution can be a great extra bed.

For example, there is a variety that camouflages well, being combined with a sofa. We are talking about a vertical folding structure made in the same color and style with the central part of the sofa, which can be placed in a special niche next to the wardrobe. When folded, the ensemble looks natural and cozy.

If there is a desire and opportunity, then the transformer sleeping place can be arranged so that when folded it will completely merge with the surrounding environment and will be completely invisible. Designers use photo wallpapers, prints of various colors and qualities, which blend in with the main part of the furniture present in the living room.

Transformer 3 in 1 (wardrobe-sofa bed)- a convenient and functional classic version. When folded, it looks like a wardrobe with a sofa in the middle, and when unfolded it is a large double bed, the legs of which, when folded, turn into a hinged shelf. For a small living room, there is nothing better than a horizontal sofa bed built into a plasterboard niche. This extra bed can also be perfectly camouflaged by using the top of the niche as a shelf for souvenirs.

One of the most popular options for a bedroom is a convertible wardrobe. It is perfect for those who wish to sleep on an extra large bed and still save space in the room. Clothes and bed linen are placed in the closet, and due to the fact that the bed folds upstairs in the daytime, the bedroom will always look neat and harmonious.

Review of the best manufacturers

The most demanded manufacturers on the market are:

The leaders in terms of the production of vertically folding transforming beds are two well-known companies from Italy - Colombo 907 and Clei. They produce durable and safe transforming mechanisms. One of the most popular models of Italian designers is a modular transforming bed: sofa-table-wardrobe-bed.
American firm Resource Furniture developed the concept of a spatial solution, which has become a kind and very convenient know-how: one object that occupies the minimum space in the room can serve as a bed with shelves, as well as a work, dining and even coffee table.

German company Belitec is an innovator and developer of models with a transformable base with electric drive and massage. This mechanism is unique in that it can be activated by simply pressing a button. Of course, the price of a product with such a control system will be an order of magnitude higher, but it can justify itself many times over.
Of the German manufacturers, it is worth noting the company Geuther, who have made additional innovations in children's transformers, improving them with a spacious box for things and an additional place to sleep.

The bed is equipped with a special lifting mechanism that lifts it to the ceiling during the day, and during sleep it can be lowered down to any desired height.
Convertible sofas are also regularly updated in all sorts of ways. Firm HeyTeam created a model called "Multiplo", which is a modular system consisting of different blocks and can perfectly fit into any interior solution. This company creates multi-modular models of transformers 3 in 1, 6 in 1, 7 in 1 and even 8 in 1.

Italian manufacturers Calligaris and Colombo at the present stage, not only the well-known wardrobes-beds of the classic vertical pattern are made, but they can also boast of novelties in the form of wardrobes-beds with a rotation mechanism.
Of the Russian manufacturers, two companies can be noted that deserve attention: these are "Metra" and "Narnia"... They produce transformers with sturdy steel frames and good quality mechanisms. The products are cheaper than those of foreign colleagues, and these companies are located in Lyubertsy and Kaliningrad.

Review # 1: Maxim Petrov

I live in the suburbs and on weekends my son often comes to visit. He studies and lives in the city. My house does not allow me to equip a separate room for him, so I decided to buy this bed. Double room with built-in shelves for things. Now my son can stay with me as a guest. This is the best solution for a small living space.

Review # 2: Kovrova Zinaida

I saw a photo of such a closet at one mother's school. I told my daughter. It turned out that such rational furniture cannot be found in our stores. And we began to ask where who had seen this. And then the teacher said that you can buy this on the Internet. The daughter was delighted and ordered. But now my grandson is even more happy. He immediately had his own wardrobe, and a desk, and a sleeping place, and
a corner in a one-room apartment where you can play without disturbing anyone! How we like this wardrobe bed! I advise everyone: take a closer look! Take a closer look and buy it!

Review # 3: Lisa Lunarko

Recently stumbled upon an amazing bunk bed that folds into a closet. I was very surprised, I was eager to buy, because I live with my younger brother. By itself, it is very compact and convenient. We have a small room, so it fits perfectly when assembled and laid. The mount does not hold together, does not stagger, a very strong frame. Great thing.

Review # 4: Evgeniya Kudinova

A friend advised me to get this transforming bed. For a long time I complained to him that I could not find the right furniture for the style. And he was right, it was she who won my love. My bedroom is not too small, but with a bed in it, there are too few free corners. And since I want more free space, I was looking for a bed that would at least visually look miniature. But, fortunately for me, my friend was also involved in the selection of furniture for me. And I found it. Thank you very much, I am very happy with my new bed.

Review # 5: Alexey Belorukov

He moved from his parents to a rented apartment. Since there was no point in renting a large apartment alone, I found a one-room apartment. But then I realized how difficult it is to reasonably equip an apartment so that there is still free space. So I opted for this bed model. I did not purchase a wardrobe, since the built-in shelves in the bed structure are quite spacious. I recommend it to everyone!

Review # 6: Andrey Volkov

I rent an apartment, and since several people very often want to move into a single room, I decided to replace the old bed with two small ones. And that was the right decision. The residents are grateful and I am very happy with my decision. Since my friends moved into the apartment, they were just looking for an apartment for two. Now I'm looking for a wardrobe bed in my room, I managed to appreciate all the practicality, according to friends' reviews.

Review # 7: Petrova Marina Ivanovna

Thank you very much to everyone who helped us with the purchase of such wonderful furniture! And they chose the color we needed for the home furniture, and made the stiffness with the lamellas as requested. Golden people! Nice furniture! Our height allowed, so we also attached a mezzanine on top and a mezzanine. Not furniture, but one pleasure! Thanks again to everyone!

Due to its compactness, practicality, folding mechanism, the transformer bed for a small apartment allows you to save space, make the room brighter and more neat.

At the same time, space is freed up and a free space appears for storing toys, clothes, books, equipment.

Advantages and disadvantages

Whether it is a bed, a sofa or a crib, like any furniture, transforming models have numerous advantages, for which connoisseurs of rationality have fallen in love, because small apartments are in dire need of the correct use of every centimeter. So, the advantages of transformer beds include indicators:

a cot and a transformer playpen can be transformed into a chest of drawers, a desk, a play area - this helps to create additional space for storing things and games;
a simple mechanism, it will not take more than a minute to fold and disassemble the sleeping bed. Convenience is provided by a mechanism presented in the form of springs, belts, an electric drive and accessories;
a variety of sizes, which allows you to choose the right model for both a child and an adult;
saving useful space, because when assembled, the transformer is cabinet furniture, and when unfolded it transforms into a sleeping place equipped with an orthopedic mattress;
affordable cost, any family with an average income can afford a transformer;
possibility of location in corner areas.

Such transformer designs are used in cases where it is not possible to arrange a separate full bedroom or for studio apartments that do not differ in a large area.

But do not forget about the shortcomings and possible problems that the owners of transforming furniture will have to face:

due to the constant unfolding, the bed wears out quickly. The lifting mechanism suffers most quickly because of this; due to improper use, it can quickly fail. It is important to pay attention to the quality of purchased furniture, manufacturer and materials;
High cost, since such designs cost decent money;
This model is not suitable for elderly people, since the constant assembly and disassembly of such a bed quickly tires;
To install the transformer bed, you will need an unoccupied main wall, since only it can withstand heavy loads.

Varieties

Conventionally, all types of beds with a folding and folding mechanism can be divided into several types:

a sofa, which, when unfolded, turns into a full-fledged comfortable sleeping bed, this is the most common option. The sofa is affordable and easy to use;
vertical or horizontal reclining structures, presented in the form of beds of wardrobes, tables, chests of drawers, walls and other interior items. It can also be a sofa;
swing-out - innovative and most expensive models that allow the most productive use of living space;
bed wardrobes - on the upper tier there is a practical sleeping place, and at the bottom there is a spacious wardrobe;
bed tables - at the top there is a sleeping place, at the bottom - a workplace;
roll-out systems - when folded they take up little space and are quite compact, but with the onset of night with the help of a roll-out mechanism they are transformed into a large double bed;
folding systems can be easily integrated into any cabinet furniture and take up little space.

Sofa beds

It is this type of transformable furniture, such as a sofa, that can most often be found in one-room apartments, dormitories. Their low price, the uniqueness of the design allows almost everyone to make such a profitable purchase.

Their assortment is not limited to a banal sofa with a book, in furniture stores you can also find a sofa with a pull-out mechanism, when the sleeping place is compactly hidden in a niche along with metal legs, as shown in the photo. In addition, you can find the following options for bed sofas: with an accordion system, with an adjustable backrest, unfolding models, pull-out, roll-out, recliners, a sofa with a modular system, and so on.

Bed sofas can differ in the type of mechanism:

folding (book, click-gag) - the place to sleep is increased by lowering the back to the level of the seat;
unfolding (accordion) - the mechanism works according to the principle of an accordion;
retractable (eurobook, roll-out) - to expand the structure, it is enough to roll out the base, and lower the back to the vacant space.

Vertical extension

Often, a transformer bed with a vertical folding mechanism is presented in the form of a double bed, which saves at least 3 square meters of living space. Minimalist architects managed to create a perfect structure, which is assembled cabinet furniture, as shown in the photo.

The system works due to a spring or pneumatic lifting mechanism, while the berth is hidden away in a special box, which harmoniously complements the appearance of the structure. In this case, the lower part of the bed can be supplemented with other decorative elements, for example, a mirror or miniature shelves, as shown in the photo.

The most common are beds with a gas lift system, when the side panels of furniture are complemented by book shelves and mezzanines for storing bed linen. Also, there are often models that transform into a desk or wardrobe in compact sizes, which are ideal for a miniature children's room.

Horizontal roll-out

This option will look good in a children's room or a guest room in a miniature apartment. This mechanism is even more compact than the vertical one. At the same time, the fastening of the berth is securely screwed to another element of the existing furniture - a wardrobe, a table, a wall, a photo.

The anchorages are often located on the longer side of the bed, reducing stress and allowing the use of cheaper and less powerful mechanisms. Such designs can be found in furniture for children: bunk beds or so-called loft beds.

Modern models are represented by original control carried out remotely through the remote control or by pressing a special button. Thanks to the ease of use, the child can unfold and fold his bed himself.

With rotating or pivoting mechanism

Such furniture will become a real decoration of the house, but it should be understood that much more space will be required for its location than for the previous options. A swivel or swivel bed is a luxurious and aristocratic interior element for a spacious apartment or a country house, as shown in the selection of photos.

The fastening principle is not much different from horizontal beds, furniture becomes the basis - bookcases, wall bars with niches and so on. And the control is carried out exclusively remotely, therefore, when creating such models, strong metal alloys are used for the fastening system.

Built in wardrobe and table

Compact and practical beds that can be removed into the closet will become a real boon for a small room, for example, a miniature living room or bedroom. Various modifications allow you to choose the furniture option that is most suitable for the quadrature and style: one and double, for children, with a vertical and horizontal mechanism.

Bed cabinets may differ in the folding mechanism:

folding - pneumatic springs are responsible for lowering the structure to a horizontal position;
swing-out - swivel joints facilitate operation.

Folding

Swing-out

The bed table is suitable for small children's rooms, the photo shows that with the help of a convenient mechanism in the daytime it is a desk for games, study, drawing, and at night the bed table turns into a sleeping place for the baby.

Thanks to the hinged mechanism, the structure can be easily folded and unfolded. As for the table, it can be mounted both longitudinally and transversely. There are also lifting mechanisms when the berth rises, freeing up space for a folding or portable table.

What material to choose

When choosing transforming furniture, you should pay special attention to the materials from which the bed frame is made. Among the offered assortment you can find models made of the following materials:

noble wood species.

Chipboard beds are a budget option that everyone can afford. If we talk about quality, then such a material is unable to withstand the daily load exerted on it for a long time, therefore, the operational periods of transformer beds made of chipboard are limited to 2-3 years.

MDF transformers are more durable, models from this raw material can be found in the model range of domestic and foreign manufacturers, and their operational life will be at least 5 years. The beds of their solid natural wood will last the longest, but at the same time you need to understand that the weight of the product will be much greater. Therefore, the preparation of the surface where the system will be mounted must be approached thoroughly so that it can withstand the permissible load.

An equally important point is the emphasis on the metal from which the fastening system, lifting mechanisms and legs are made. Heavy metal alloys do not deform and are able to withstand a lot of weight, they should be preferred when choosing a transformer for your home, photo.

Dimensions (edit)

The dimensional grid of the transforming models is not much different from the standard ones and fully complies with the requirements of GOST. The transformer can be provided for children from 0 to 10 years old and has its own sizes.

The lineup for adults can be roughly divided into three types: single, one-and-a-half and double. Single beds produced by domestic manufacturers can vary in width from 70 to 90 cm.While imported brands offer more spacious options for one berth, the width of which is 90-100 cm.The length of the bed is 1.9-2 meters ... This option is perfect for teens and low-weight adults.

One-and-a-half transformer beds are larger and provide freedom of sleep for one person, but for two there will not be enough space. The standard width is up to 1.4 meters, and the length is 1.9-2 m.A truly royal option for a bedroom will be a double bed, whose dimensions are 1.4x2 meters and 1.6x2 m.But among modern models, you can also find specimens, width which will be 170 cm, which is not very practical for transformers, because you should not forget about the load on the wall.

Which mechanism is more reliable

The main element of any transformer bed is the lifting mechanism, the reliability of which ensures the durability of the product. Today there are several types of such mechanisms:

spring;
gas lift;
with counterweight.

Gaslift

Manual

Spring loaded

If we compare the spring model and the gas lift, then the second option is the best, which can work up to 90 thousand cycles. The problem with the spring mechanism is that the springs can become loose over time. Because of this, such mechanisms work up to 20 thousand cycles.
