Unfortunately, today the most common material in furniture production is chipboard plates... Of course, if you look at the advertisements of manufacturers, then the material is stronger than chipboard, it simply does not exist in nature, which does not cause much confidence. If you want your transformer to serve you for many years, you should choose a bed with a metal or wooden frame.

Problem small apartments and functional, folding furniture is not new. Simple transformers have been found in almost every apartment since the Soviet era. For example, a sofa bed, an armchair bed, a book table. Transformer bed for small apartment the most relevant topic, because it is the sleeping place in terms of dimensions that takes up the most space in the room.

Convertible furniture options

With the advent of new materials and mechanisms, folding models have acquired greater functionality and reliability. Winch mechanisms gave way to hydraulic and pneumatic ones. Improved and lightened spring mechanisms used to transform sofas. Lightweight composite materials for load-bearing structures are distinguished by increased reliability.

In addition, in dynamic time, the idea of transforming space by using design techniques in demand. In recent furniture exhibitions, awards have been given to designers who have developed transforming furniture for a miniature apartment. What are the main options offered by furniture designers and designers?

Wardrobe bed transformer

The most common option is a transformer bed wardrobe, photos of such models are often found in various furniture magazines. Quite simple options are horizontal or vertical mounting sleeping place against the wall of the cabinet. In the upright position, the bed is fastened by one sidewall in width. In the horizontal position for the base - along the length of the berth. If necessary, the bed is raised hydraulically and turns into one of the cabinet walls. For decoration, use shelves, a mirror, decorative panels... Visually, it looks like a cabinet or a wall.

For rest or sleep, the berth is lowered, fixed on folding legs and a horizontal bed is obtained, convenient for good rest. Additionally, in the configuration of such walls there are niches for linen, straps fixing the bed and mattress, lighting. It's so versatile small-sized option which is suitable for living room, small bedroom and nursery.

Sofa bed wall

This option is optimal for a small living room. Suitable in case relatives or guests have arrived, and you need an extra bed, or if the apartment is completely miniature. The combination is as follows - wardrobe bed sofa transformer. In a stationary state, we see a wall or a wardrobe, along which a corner sofa is located. This is a typical living room setting. A niche with a sleeping place is mounted behind the back of the sofa, adjacent to the wall. If necessary, this part of the sofa can be transformed into a bed.

There are options when there can be an additional soft element for a sofa in the wall or a complete frame for a bed with a mattress, which is lowered and fixed using folding legs. This is how transforming sofa beds for a small apartment function.

Models for nursery and office

One of convenient options- sofa-table-bed for a nursery or a mini-cabinet, suitable for rooms where you need to combine working area for classes and a sleeping place. The principle of operation is similar to combining a bed with a wardrobe. In this case, folded, with back side bed, a structure is attached, which turns into a work table.

Transformer bed for small room with a table is convenient for a nursery, a bedroom and a small one-room apartment, such as "living room".

The children's room more than others needs to optimize the space, especially if there are two in one room, sometimes more children. To solve this problem, there are systems that provide transformers for two berths - starting from simple models, with retractable niches with a mattress from under the bed, ending with more complex ones with two bunk beds.

In the first case, it is enough to use traditional furniture materials: wood, chipboard, MDF. In the second case, all frame elements must be made of strong composite materials but light enough. The design principle is that a similar second one is located above the lower niche. It is also attached to the wall when folded.

When preparing a place to rest, two structures are laid out. The upper berth is fixed and connected to the lower one using frame elements. Additionally, a ladder is mounted so that you can get to the second tier. When assembled, we see a cabinet, at the bottom of which there is workplace for classes. The first and second options allow you to significantly expand functionality rooms.

Transformer sofa model

The 3 in 1 convertible sofa bed is another solution for apartments with limited space. When folded, it is a regular sofa with a soft back made of furniture cushions. The sides consist of a rigid frame, often covered with artificial leather. They have swivel mechanisms which allow them to rotate 180 degrees.

Also, the sidewalls are interconnected by a furniture board, which is not visible when folded. The furniture plate will later become the surface of the table, it is hidden behind furniture cushions. There is a niche at the bottom of the sofa where there is an additional soft part.

Transformation options are three in one:

Folded state. A full-fledged comfortable sofa with leather sides and soft furniture cushions.

Bed. A niche is being pulled out. With the help of the dolphin mechanism and a tension loop, the second half of the soft part is removed. As a result, we get a spacious sleeping place, that is, a bed.

Sofa table. The pillows are removed, and a rigid structure is raised along the axis of the attachment. Recall, it consists of sidewalls, which are interconnected by a table top. We get a full table. The side sections of the sofa serve as the fixing support. The dimensions of the table allow not only using it for work, but also as a dining table(length 1.9 m, width 0.7 m).

All three transformation options make it possible to get a full and functional sofa, bed, table. These are the most popular solutions for transforming furniture systems with fairly simple mechanisms.

Modern tendencies

It has already been noted that transforming furniture has become fashion trend... There are objective conditions for this. Real estate is expensive. At the beginning of the start of a career, many have to be content with small apartments. The desire to make such spaces functional, interesting and non-standard pushes designers around the world to search for new solutions.

The main problem of budget housing is the lack of free space... For this reason, many are forced to give up, using uncomfortable narrow ones. It turns out that there is a simple and original solution- transformer bed. For a small apartment, this is - the best way... What are, what to be guided by when buying and how much such models cost - in this material.

Thanks to such furniture, even a small room can easily accommodate a double bed.

it is better to dwell on a model without springs, it is not known how the springs will behave in a vertical arrangement;

you should not buy a mattress filled with coke shavings, it is very heavy, this will create an additional load on the mechanism and require a lot of effort during the folding process;
the best choice for a transformer bed is a light latex mattress, it has good orthopedic properties and at the same time retains its shape for a long time.

Varieties of transformation mechanisms

The most important part of such a bed is the transformation mechanism. There are three types of mechanisms:

spring;
gas lift;
counterweight.

Each of them has its own working resource. The gas lift is guaranteed to work ninety thousand times.

For your information! It is better if the gas lift is filled with nitrogen rather than air. With such a filling, corrosion of parts will not form.

The spring design will last only twenty thousand cycles. Springs tend to stretch and lose their elasticity. But they are much cheaper than a gas lift.

The most durable of the presented mechanisms is the counterweight one. Its only drawback is the need to allocate space to accommodate the counterweight. Such devices are rarely found on the market, they are usually used in hand-made models.

Useful advice! When choosing furniture with a dual purpose, it is better to choose a model with a metal frame.

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. My 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

Review # 4: Evgeniya Kudinova

A friend advised me to get this transforming bed. I AM for a long time 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 filming alone big apartment, found odnushka. 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

Now I'm looking for a wardrobe bed in my room, I managed to appreciate all the practicality, according to friends' reviews.

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.

Outcomes

A transforming bed for a small apartment is an excellent opportunity to use space rationally. A wide range of models allows you to choose furniture that matches the size and design. When buying, you should pay attention to the quality folding mechanism and the compliance of the bed with physiological parameters.
