RTA sofa beds are becoming more popular than ever, and this is clearly due to the ever-increasing quality of some manufacturers. The cheap old sofa beds of yesteryear have now been replaced with a new ready-to-assemble option: RTA custom-made sofa beds. Only a couple of manufacturers offer them, but they are worth a look. Here are ten reasons to consider one of these new couches, as well as why they’re better than previous options on the RTA market:
1. RTA market sofa beds fit anywhere. Traditional sleepers are bulky, heavy, and impossible to move. RTA sofa beds fit easily into the tightest of spaces and can easily fit through a narrow doorway or stairwell.
2. RTA couches are sturdy if you buy the custom made versions. Not all RTA couches are made the same. The new ones are made with solid oak frames and are as sturdy as any other type of sleeper. The cheap ones are made with very cheap materials and are obviously substandard.
3. Custom sofas are made in the USA Cheap RTA sofas are made overseas in most cases and are plain in nature. Assembly line furniture cannot compare to having your bed handcrafted to order.
4. Ready-to-assemble sofas offer air cushions. Have you ever slept on a traditional sofa that has a metal bar that digs into your back all night? Wouldn’t you rather sleep on an airbed? These sleepers offer an air cushion that is assembled and set up in minutes.
5. Custom-made sofa beds can be assembled in minutes without the need for tools. Traditional RTA couches are a headache to assemble and require the use of a tool that will drive you crazy: the hex tool. Custom-made sleepers are assembled without tools and can be done in minutes, with no effort required.
6. Custom sleepers look amazing when not in use. The bed is certainly an important part of a sofa bed, but so is the sofa. After all, you don’t want to have a sofa that looks like it came out of the garage when the bed isn’t in use. Custom options are very attractive and can be just as good as showroom furniture.
7. Sofa beds give you options for company or sleepovers. Many people put sofa beds in their bedrooms and others have put them in their living rooms. Regardless, they give you a great option to turn to when you have guests over. They’re also wonderful for your teens when they have friends over for sleepovers.
8. RTA sofa beds can be custom made. What used to be cut and dried with RTA makers is no longer the case. You can use your own materials or select from literally thousands of style, color and fabric combinations. You are no longer limited to four base colors and one style.
9. Custom sofa beds are more durable. If you plan to use your sofa bed, you don’t want to go for the cheap sofas on the market. Instead, you should go for the custom RTA options. The structures, as well as the sofas themselves, are assembled with the best quality and functionality.
10. Custom sofa beds aren’t terribly expensive. Even if you upgrade and buy the well-made sofas on the RTA market, you’ll still see a lot of savings compared to standard sofa beds on the furniture market. Saving money is always good when the product is of this quality.
