A sleeper sofa replaces a guest bed in rooms that serve double duty -- but the mattress mechanism and depth of the frame determine whether it actually works as either a comfortable sofa or a comfortable bed. Our sleeper sofa collection includes queen and full innerspring and memory foam mattress options in fabric and leather. Read our guide to choosing a sleeper sofa for mattress quality comparisons and frame depth requirements.

A sleeper sofa is one of the more practical investments in a guest room or studio apartment -- it handles everyday seating and converts to a full sleeping surface when you need it, without requiring a dedicated guest room.

We carry sleeper sofas in twin, full, and queen sizes, with mattress options ranging from standard innerspring to memory foam pull-outs. Sizes run from apartment-scale 80-inch loveseats with twin beds to full-size 92-inch sofas with queen beds.

What to Know Before You Buy a Sleeper Sofa

  • Mattress type matters: The standard mattress in most sleeper sofas is a 3.5-inch innerspring. Memory foam upgrades (5 to 6 inches) sleep noticeably better for frequent guests but add cost. If your guests use it more than a few nights a month, upgrade the mattress
  • Weight: Sleeper sofas are significantly heavier than regular sofas -- typically 180 to 280 pounds. Factor this into delivery and room placement decisions
  • Mechanism clearance: The fold-out mechanism requires 60 to 72 inches of clearance in front of the sofa. Measure from the sofa to the nearest wall or coffee table to ensure the bed can fully extend
  • Daily use vs occasional: If the sleeper will be used as the primary sofa daily and a bed occasionally, prioritize the cushion quality and frame. If it'll mostly be a bed with occasional sofa use, prioritize the mattress
