Sectional Sofa Beds: Soffie's L-Shaped and U-Shaped Options Explained

Sectional Sofa Beds: Soffie's L-Shaped and U-Shaped Options Explained

A sectional is the piece everyone gravitates to on movie night. There is a corner to curl into, room to stretch out, and space for the whole group.

A sectional sofa bed adds one more job. When someone stays over, part of it opens into a proper bed, so the room that hosts the evening can also host the night. Soffie makes them in both of its collections.

Quick Answer

Soffie makes sectional sofa beds in both Nest Atelier and Loop Studio. There are L-shaped 3 seat and 4 seat models, with the corner on the left or the right, and a U-shaped sofa bed. Every one opens to a sleeping surface 147 cm deep and includes built-in storage.

Key Takeaways

  • Soffie's sectional sofa beds come in three shapes: a 3 seat L, a 4 seat L and a U.
  • Each shape is available in Nest Atelier and Loop Studio, with or without a matching pouf.
  • The L-shaped models can be ordered with the corner on the left or the right.
  • Every sectional sofa bed opens to a sleeping surface 147 cm deep and has a storage compartment for bedding.
  • The modules arrive in boxes, the largest about 80 lbs, and assemble without tools.

The Sectional Sofa Bed Range

On Soffie product pages, a sectional sofa bed, sometimes called a corner sofa bed, is the Sofabed & Storage type paired with a sectional layout. The range has three shapes.

  • The 3 seat sectional sofa bed, a compact L with a short return, suited to a condo or a smaller living room.
  • The 4 seat sectional sofa bed, a longer L for a family room or an open plan space.
  • The U-shaped sofa bed, with a return on each side, for large rooms and big gatherings.

Each comes in Nest Atelier, with its rounded arms, and Loop Studio, with its squared arms. You can add a pouf to any of them. The full range sits in Soffie's sectionals collection.

Sectional Sofa Bed Dimensions

These are the closed dimensions shown on each product page. Width is the long side, and depth is the length of the return.

Model Width Depth Height
Nest Sectional Sofa Bed, 3 seat 305 cm 205 cm 87 cm
Loop Sectional Sofa Bed, 3 seat 300 cm 200 cm 87 cm
Nest Sectional Sofa Bed, 4 seat 395 cm 285 cm 87 cm
Loop Sectional Sofa Bed, 4 seat 390 cm 280 cm 87 cm
Nest U-Shaped Sofa Bed 380 cm 285 cm 87 cm
Loop U-Shaped Sofa Bed 380 cm 280 cm 87 cm

Seat height is 45 cm and seat depth is 60 cm across the range, the same as Soffie's straight sofas. The Nest versions run about 5 cm larger on most measurements and have fuller, rounded arms.

How Big the Bed Is When Open

The bed opens from the long side of the sectional, and the corner stays in place as seating. Every sectional sofa bed opens to a sleeping surface 147 cm deep.

The dimensions diagrams also show how long the opening side is. It measures 180 cm on both 3 seat models, 295 cm on the Nest 4 seat and 290 cm on the Loop 4 seat. Those runs are measured from the corner to the outside of the arm, so the sleeping area itself is a little shorter.

The U-shaped sofa bed also opens to 147 cm deep, from the centre section between its two returns. Check the diagram for your chosen model before you order, especially if the bed will be used often.

Choosing the Corner Side

The 3 seat and 4 seat sofa beds are each offered with the corner on the left or the right. You make that choice in the configuration options on the product page.

The easiest way to get it right is to look at the product image for the layout you select. Match it to a quick sketch of your room. Put the corner where you want it and the long side facing the television or the window.

Remember that the bed opens from the long side. Plan that side of the room so a coffee table can move aside easily. Opening the bed takes up far more floor than the closed 103 cm depth.

L-Shaped or U-Shaped?

An L-shaped sofa bed tucks into the corner of a room and leaves the other sides open. The 3 seat model works in many condo living rooms, while the 4 seat model suits a larger room or an open plan layout.

The U-shaped sofa bed wraps around a space on three sides. At 380 cm wide with returns up to 285 cm, it needs a generous room, and it rewards you with seating for a crowd.

One trade-off applies to both. A sectional is planned around a corner, so it depends on the room having one. If you move often or your next home may be laid out differently, a straight Soffie sofa bed is a flexible place to start, and its modular design lets you add or rearrange pieces later.

Getting a Sectional Into Your Home

A large sofa bed sounds hard to deliver, but Soffie sectionals arrive as separate modules in boxes. According to the Soffie FAQ, the largest box weighs about 80 lbs and measures 36.3 × 40 × 25 inches.

Delivery is to your building entrance, so plan how the boxes will get upstairs or inside. Once they are in, the modules connect without tools.

Measure the narrowest point on the way in, such as a doorway, a stair turn or an elevator. For condos and older houses, the Toronto sofa buying guide walks through each of those checks.

Storage and Materials

Like every Soffie sofa bed, each sectional includes a hidden compartment for bedding, 23 cm high. For packing and care tips, see the article on sofa beds with storage.

The frame is solid beech, the cushions use 32 DNS high-density foam, and the covers are removable and washable. Each piece is designed in Canada and made in Europe.

What a Sectional Sofa Bed Costs

Regular prices start at $4,374.90 for the 3 seat sectional sofa beds and reach $9,124.90 for the U-shaped sofa bed with pouf. Nest and Loop are priced the same, and Soffie often runs promotions on top of these figures.

Colour, pouf and promotions all affect the total, and every price is in Canadian dollars. Check the product page once your selections are made.

Live With It Before You Decide

A sectional sofa bed is a big purchase. That is why the 40-day home trial matters here: you can host a guest before you commit. The 5-year warranty covers eligible manufacturing defects, and shipping is free to most of Canada.

Free fabric swatches let you judge each colour at home. You can also sit on a Soffie at one of its try spots.

A sectional sofa bed gives you the corner seat, the long stretch and the guest bed in one piece. Pick the shape your room can hold, choose your corner, and the modules go together without tools.
