Using your furniture
The sleeping function is not recommended to be used as the everyday solution. It is only an additional function for your corner sofa bed and should be used only occasionally.
With majority of models we recommend to place your sofa next to the wall, as sometimes it needs additional support due to the way how the sleeping function is installed.

As one of the UK's few specialist sofa retailers, the Sofa Bargain selection process is strongly oriented toward quality and durability as well as value. Before allowing supply of a piece of upholstery from any manufacturer, our buying team not only inspect and assess the factory but also check the method of manufacture of every model and design produced.
Upholstery and sofas in particular are hand made products and as such variation and inconsistencies are common. It is normal to have up to 10cm size difference depending on which part it is set. For this reason Sofa Bargain take great care in supplier choice, working with only factories where quality standards are process driven and maintainable.
This means that when a model is on display in the store, we are supremely confident in it's intrinsic quality.
To represent our own confidence in our products and in addition to your statutory rights as a UK consumer we include our own 1 years warranty, free-of-charge with your new furniture.
Every structural component of your new sofas and chairs is covered comprehensively by our 1 year warranty.
Specifically all framework, joints, springs and suspension system are warranted for a period of one year.
Excluding normal fair wear and tear and all covering fabrics, leather and fillings, this means that should any structural component of your furniture fail during normal use it will be repaired free-of-charge by Sofa Bargain for a period of 1 year (subject to our terms and conditions).
As with any warranty or protection, in offering this service we assume proper care of your furniture by reference to your care instructions, normal use in a domestic environment and no abuse from pets, children or any other source.
In case of a fault with a product we strongly recommend to NOT conduct any repairs by customers. If such repair happens (not authorised), the warranty will be automatically voided. Sofa Bargain follows a process to make sure that the quality of our service remains on a high level.
