Sofa Bed VS Futon
Some choices can be pretty hard. Even though choosing between two different pieces of furniture can’t exactly be termed as a hard or difficult decision, there can be a certain level of dilemma involved in the process. A common choice furniture buyers usually have to make is between a futon and a sofa bed. The team at Foam World has listed the pros and cons of both below to make your choice easier. Enjoy!

Sofa beds fit in seamlessly with your interior and are usually considered more visually or aesthetically appealing than futons. |
Pros
Futons usually come in more different mattress sizes compared to a sofa bed. Futons are usually lighter than sofa beds. This allows them to be moved around with greater ease. In most cases, futons are more budget friendly when compared to sofa beds. That is to say, futons are usually cheaper than sofa beds. |
| Cons
Sofa beds come in fewer mattress sizes compared to futons. Sofa beds are usually heavier than futons and are therefore less mobile in comparison. Sofa beds are more expensive compared to futons. |
Cons
