Hello, Stepan!
When purchasing, you need to obtain information about the permissible load on the mechanism. These data are indicated in the model description, otherwise check with the seller. Ask what is the maximum weight the sofa you like can withstand. In addition, it matters whether the furniture will be used daily or is a guest option. Important characteristics when choosing a durable sofa are a strong frame, stable, non-wobbly legs and a reliable transformation mechanism.
Choosing a mechanism for transforming upholstered furniture
- The roll-out mechanism is considered one of the most reliable and durable. It is designed for numerous transformations and is suitable for everyday use. It is easy to unfold and put away. There is a special belt loop hidden under the seat; by pulling it, you will force the front part to move forward and the back to take its place. Models equipped with this mechanism usually have a spacious and flat sleeping surface. When folded, they take up little space. This sofa can be installed close to the wall.
- “Tick-tock” is an improved and modernized “Eurobook”. The sofa mechanism extends the seat and reclines the backrest. An improvement on the previous mechanism consists of mechanically lifting the seat above the floor as a result of transforming the sofa.
- “Click-clack” - sofas with this transformation mechanism are distinguished by the absence of cracks and depressions in the sleeping area. In addition, they are more comfortable due to the possibility of choosing positions: “lying”, “half-sitting” or “sitting”.
- It may be worth considering the option of a corner sofa - the mechanism of such furniture is little involved, and since this part is one of the most vulnerable, a static sofa is more durable.
Spring blocks and heavy weight
For a heavy person, the correct choice of spring blocks is also important. In this case, “Bonnel” is recommended - in these blocks the radius of support of the spring coil is consistently reduced. As a result, the spring is easily compressed at the beginning of the load, and becomes tighter as the load increases. If you weigh more than 110 kg, you should carefully consider this option. Consider the disadvantage of this type of springs - they are interconnected. As a result, when you press on one spring, you also affect the others. Therefore, this type of spring blocks does not adapt well to the shape of the human body. An independent bloc does not have these shortcomings. But it is not suitable if the load on the furniture is above 110 kg.
How soft should your sofa be?
For a sleeping place you need to choose a harder surface. The high density of polyurethane foam makes the surface of the sleeping area more elastic, which means it can withstand more weight. Compared to the spring design, PPU provides a more rigid surface.
As for durability, both options are encouraging. High-quality polyurethane foam is designed for a long service life. Spring units are also quite durable if they are relatively expensive. The flooring of a good sofa should last at least 5 years. Its durability is affected by the quality of materials and operating conditions.
And finally, pay attention to the fittings - a reliable sofa should have metal fasteners, plugs, supports, springs and buttons. Avoid plastic parts.
Best regards, Galina.
There are sofas in every home. Some use them as additional seating when guests gather, others buy sofas so that they have something to relax and sleep on. Therefore, in addition to appearance, it is necessary to determine in advance their type of construction, dimensions, and materials of manufacture.
Among the huge selection of sofas, the most popular and widespread are folding models - books. They are distinguished by functionality, aesthetics, ease of use and high technical characteristics.
How much does a sofa weigh on average?
An approximate estimate of the weight of your favorite furniture will help you avoid such situations. There is no universal calculation formula, but by looking closely at the sofa you can get your bearings with an accuracy of up to a couple of kilograms. It is enough to pay attention to the following parameters:
- dimensions;
- frame material;
- upholstery;
- mattress design.
Based on the listed features, it is already possible to make a rough estimate.
Book
A classic sofa of this design is distinguished by spacious drawers, high build quality and decent weight, which ranges from 75-110 kg.
A larger number is typical for three-seat furniture upholstered in heavy material, the frame of which is made of solid wood. Modern mattresses are relatively light, but if we are talking about the old “spring”, then the lion’s share of the total mass falls on it.
The book can weigh less due to the use of lighter materials. A frame made of pine or chipboard, minimal structural reinforcement and a foam mattress on a fiberboard backing are not especially durable, but the weight of such products can even fall below the 75 kg bar.
Angular
The corner sofa has a more complex frame and, therefore, a decent weight of 100-160 kg.
As with a book, the higher quality the materials, the heavier the furniture. The heaviest structures are those with a built-in transformation mechanism. The easiest options are kitchen ones, unable to be transformed, made from cheap materials.
Ottoman
A small, cozy sofa without unnecessary problems. The ottoman weighs about 40-50 kg. And if the movers try to convince you that this is not true, just turn the sofa on its side and show its design. Well, 4 legs, 4 load-bearing bars and several reinforcing bars cannot pull any more. Even in combination with fiberboard sheets, upholstery and foam rubber.

Dimensions
The size of the kitchen sofa is selected to accommodate up to several people sitting on it. If there are more guests, the rest will use stools or upholstered chairs. Typical sizes of sofas are from 110 to 180 cm, if the kitchen is small. To free up additional space, the backrests are not attached to the seats, but are placed close to the wall. If the standard sizes in furniture stores do not suit you, then order an individual sofa.
The design of the kitchen corner sofa is such that its corner part, on average, occupies no more than one square meter. Its angular back contains something like a shelf without sides, where behind the back of the person sitting in this place you can place, for example, a vase of flowers or a stack of magazines.
The main parts of most small corner sofas, located on opposite sides of the corner part that connects these fragments into a single whole, range in length from 120 to 160 cm. The height of the corner sofa is no more than 90 cm, the total length of the sofa (along the back) is no more than 3 m. The width of the seats is 45-60 cm, the seat height of a person on such a sofa is 45-55 cm.
What does it affect?
A piece of furniture on which a person constantly sits or lies affects the quality of his life. Both health and comfort depend on this. That is why it is important to choose a standard height option that will be orthopedic optimal. At least if you plan to use such furniture often.
Parameters of the back of the sofa from the floor
Health and height
The ergonomics of a sitting posture is what determines life expectancy for a person now. If the distance from the floor to the sofa seat is lower or higher than the standard, blood flow is disrupted. Somewhere there is compression of arteries and veins.
As a result, the supply of blood and oxygen to all organs deteriorates.
This leads to the following:
- Deterioration of vision and hearing.
- Deterioration of the heart and blood vessels.
- To the occurrence of problems with the musculoskeletal system.
Armrests and backrest
Also, an ill-chosen sofa indirectly affects the entire body. Over time, both health and psychological state worsen. And many do not understand why this happens. Of course, this furniture itself does not cause depression, but it can easily end up becoming one of its causes.
Comfort and height
Unfortunately, the most convenient height from the floor option is unlikely to be good for health. Most people prefer soft and relatively low furniture. And the optimal options are medium hardness, which creates a right angle at the knees due to the height standard. Harder pieces of furniture will cause too much psychological discomfort, and this is also not good.
Corner sofa
Over time, a person will get used to it. Thanks to the right angle in the knees, blood circulation will be extremely fast and easy. But even in this case, it is important to get up and move sometimes, otherwise there will still be stagnation of blood. It is better to initially choose furniture of the correct height, which will help maintain health in the future.
The design and principle of operation of the sofa folding mechanism Book
The sofa with a book mechanism is designed as simply as possible. The design is based on a lever and a plate. The elements are assembled for fixation on both components of the sofa. The lever design determines the type of sofa.
There are 3 types:
- version with flat cheeks - without shelf. The design provides lower seat support;
- mechanism with a shelf - here an additional corner appears to support the seat, but the folding mechanism still provides only 2 positions;
- “Click-clack”: the design of the levers involves 3 fastenings, which is an additional bonus.
All types of fasteners are very easy to repair and replace.
The sofa is designed like this: the seat rises to a horizontal position. Press the seat down until you hear a characteristic click; this blocks the locking mechanism. The seat also lowers to a horizontal position. A horizontal backrest takes up space, so the sofa cannot be placed next to a wall or must be moved back before unfolding. This is a design flaw.
Furniture is folded in the same way. Raise the seat again until you hear a click, and then lower the seat to its normal position. In this case, the back should rise and take a vertical position.
Based on the number of positions, there are 2 types:
- regular book - occupy only 2 positions;
- "Click-gag" is an improved version. Accepts 3 positions: in addition to “sitting” and “lying” there is a “half-sitting” position.
The advantage of any option is a spacious drawer for linen. Not only bedding is stored here, but also blankets, pillows and a duvet.
The folding mechanism is very simple and reliable. Malfunctions are rare and can be easily fixed manually.
The guide bar rivets break more often. The bolts holding the lever and plate together wear out or break. In this case, a gap appears, due to which the mechanism begins to malfunction and the design becomes more complicated. The rivet is drilled out and replaced with a new one or simply replaced with a bolt and nut of the appropriate size.
Another disadvantage of the device is the lever. When too much pressure is applied, it bends, making transformation impossible or difficult. This happens if the fittings are installed too loosely and do not correspond to the weight of the sofa and the intended load. The same breakdown is possible with too sudden movements when folding and unfolding the sofa.
To extend the “life” of the sofa, it is recommended to periodically lubricate the transformation mechanism with machine oil and clean it of accumulated dust and dirt.

Kinds
Book sofas have several popular configuration options. They can be classified according to the type of design, content, and the presence of additional elements. All options are worth considering in more detail.
With and without armrests
Models with armrests are considered classic. The side elements act as supports, providing comfort during sleep and rest. These sofa models are chosen for small children, in the living room or guest room. The armrests can be completely hard or supplemented with soft upholstery. Sometimes they can transform by changing the angle of inclination - this universal option is called click-clack.
The armrests used in the design of the sofa can be made of wood. This support has high strength, hardness, can withstand significant loads, and is easy to clean. The wide base can act as a shelf for a laptop, a tray of tea or a favorite book.
Book sofas without armrests are considered a more modern design option. They are more compact than classic ones and are easier to place in limited spaces. Such models of upholstered furniture look stylish, have good ergonomics, and allow you to install other interior items close to the sofa: a cabinet, a coffee table, a pouf.
With linen box and without storage system
The design of the sofa-book provides opportunities for placing bedding and other useful things at its base. The linen box inside can be in 1 or several copies, sometimes it is divided into sections and blocks inside. In most cases, it can only be accessed when the seat is raised.
With different types of filling
There are 3 main categories of fillers used in the construction of book sofas.
- Spring (dependent). This can be a classic “Bonnel” block or a “snake” block, in which all the elements are connected to each other. This base is quite elastic and dense, providing the sofa with a long service life. Orthopedic properties are low.
- Springless. They have an elastic filler made of polyurethane foam or latex and provide a very high density. The absence of springs allows these sofas to be used in children's rooms. The only drawback of a springless base is the gradual deformation of the material under load.
- With independent spring block. Orthopedic structures of this type evenly distribute the load over the surface. The base is well suited for use by people suffering from back pain. Such sofas are more expensive, but are the most comfortable while sleeping.
Straight
A classic sofa book usually has exactly this configuration. The direct arrangement allows for ease of use of the piece of furniture in both folded and transformed positions. It is worth considering that this particular format is suitable for small spaces. In a spacious room, straight book sofas are arranged in pairs - symmetrically, creating original interior compositions.
Angular
This type of sofa has an additional side module that resembles a couch. Only the main part remains foldable. Book sofas with a corner design are distinguished by their design; they are often used for zoning rooms. Furniture of this type can also be placed along the wall, increasing the number of available seats and without cluttering the space.

How to measure the standard height of a sofa from the floor
To determine the exact dimensions of the product you like, measurements must be taken directly from the floor. The beginning of the ruler or tape measure must be pressed to the floor surface next to the furniture, holding the measuring tool strictly perpendicular. Measure to the top edge of the seat if you are measuring the seating area, or to the top edge of the backrest if you need to determine the overall height. If the backrest includes pillows, then measurements need to be taken to their top.
Important! However, the armrests are measured from the top of the seat, from the middle of its depth - where it is pressed down the most
What else is important to consider when choosing
Of course, height is not the only parameter worth considering. There are a number of other fundamental points. If left unattended, over time the furniture will no longer be comfortable and may be harmful to health.
Office sofa option
Also worth considering:
- degree of softness;
- environmentally friendly upholstery;
- proportions in length and width.
It is important to understand that a comfortable sofa does not mean harmless. Because of its physiology, humans do best sitting on relatively hard surfaces. The same goes for lying down. This is why furniture that is too soft is harmful. It leads to an increase in hemorrhoids, stagnation of blood flow, diseases of the spine and the musculoskeletal system as a whole.
Universal option
Cheap products often have dubious upholstery. Such materials are sometimes toxic. In addition, they wear out quickly. But with good fabric upholstery, not everything is smooth either.
Professionals in the field of microbiology believe that the fabric on furniture sooner or later harbors many pathogenic microorganisms, including fungi. So the best option is a good leatherette.
The ratio of the width and length of the used part of the sofa directly affects safety. Especially if they are lying on the furniture or, especially, sleeping. The sofa should not be too narrow.
Dimensions of a corner sofa in centimeters
It should not be too short in relation to a person’s height, otherwise spinal diseases will arise over time. Including scoliosis. The risk of rheumatoid arthritis and other joint diseases increases.
From a design point of view, the sofa plays one of the key roles in the interior. Simply because it is very large and often larger than a closet. Especially if it is a sleeping option.
And therefore there are a lot of requirements for the sofa. Sometimes it’s better not to put anything on it, and sometimes it’s better to carefully place several pillows that match both in style and shade.
In the country
Often they use pillows with different shades and even a different color from the sofa. But this requires good taste and the ability to see the big picture. Even if all the elements of the composition are in harmony with each other, they can sometimes come into color conflict with the surrounding space.
How to choose product dimensions
Wood crown: sizes and types of attachments, application features
When choosing the size of a sofa, be judicious. You need to be based on:
- room possibilities;
- interior design;
- the required capacity of the sofa.
The optimal increase for a sofa for each family member is 70 cm when disassembled, 50 when assembled.
In fact, there is hardly enough space on it, so be more wasteful: it is better to buy additional modules or use more spacious models.
In a large family, three-seater corner sofas, one-and-a-half-size fold-out products, etc. are needed. The optimal increase for a sofa for each family member is 70 cm when disassembled, 50 when assembled. Based on this calculation, you can accommodate three people in a double version with a length of about 200 cm. In fact, there is hardly enough space on it, so be more wasteful: it is better to buy additional modules or use more spacious models.

Tips for choosing a sofa for sleeping
Here are a few tips that you should definitely take into account if you are planning to purchase a sleeper option:
- if you like the option, study the reviews, if possible, sit or lie down on a similar model, it is important that you feel comfortable;
- pay attention to the quality of the frame and the reliability of the assembly;
- try to unfold and fold the product - this should not require excessive effort;
- take all measurements in the room in advance;
- Pay attention to various functional additions in the form of drawers for linen or shelves for books.
And don’t hesitate to consult a specialist. A good store will always be happy to help you make the right choice.
Formula method for determining height, growth formula
In children from 1 month to 6 months, normal growth is very easy and simple to determine.
3 M + PP, where M is the number of months of a child’s life, PP is height at birth.
If the child is from 7 months to 12 months , then you can use the formula:
M + 64, where M is the number of months of the child’s life.
Normally, a child’s weight may differ by 2 cm, plus or minus, from the indicated values. That is, to the obtained figures ± 2 cm.
For children older than 2 years to 8 years, the following formula is used to determine height in centimeters.
7 x L + 74, where L is the number of years of the child’s life.
Normally, a child’s weight may differ by 3 cm, plus or minus, from the indicated values. That is, to the obtained figures ± 3 cm.
For children over 9 years old to 16 years old, the following formula is used to determine height in centimeters.
5 x L + 90, where L is the number of years of the child’s life.
Normally, a child’s weight may differ by 4 cm, plus or minus, from the indicated values. That is, to the obtained figures ± 4 cm.
Using the formulas provided by Sarklinik, it is easy to calculate the normal weight and height of any child at any age, but if it is difficult for you to do this yourself, we will help you. Below are examples of calculations for children of different ages, normal height and weight (mass) (table).

Can be used as a bed
It is difficult to sleep on such a sofa, if its longest part is less than 1.9 m, without placing a pair of stools or a chair under the feet of the person going to bed. The ideal solution would be a kitchen sofa corner made in the form of a transformer.
Its modular design with lifts allows you to turn it into a universal lounger that can be used in any room. This design is an ideal minimalist option for kitchen-living rooms: there is no need for a regular sofa bed used in the bedroom.
The typical dimensions of a transforming corner with the function of a double bed are 2x1.5 m, which allows two guests to comfortably spend the night if the apartment is small and one-room. This corner combines three useful functions at once, including storage. There are corners that come complete with additional seat-stands that resemble something between a stool and a pouf. These elements extend the sleeping place (or both sleeping places, if the sofa corner is folding) by 50-60 cm.
“Eurobook”, or a folding sofa, which, if necessary, turns into a double bed in the likeness of ordinary sofas for the bedroom - a smaller version of the latter. One of the berths serves as a backrest for those sitting during the day.
Accessories
One of the most common accessories for a Eurobook sofa is a protective cover. As a rule, it is used for those models that are covered with easily soiled materials (suede). The described accessory will be very useful in a house where there are small children. It will protect your furniture from liquids spilled on it or from paints and other writing materials. There are many varieties of these accessories - their choice depends on the situation in which they will be used. To add some bright colors to your room, you can choose a bright accessory in the form of pillows for your sofa.
It is important that their color matches the color of other objects in the room.
Review Reviews
Buyers, as a rule, are satisfied with their purchase. The described furniture is very comfortable and practical, as indicated by positive reviews. Most often, consumers note:
- ease and convenience of unfolding , thanks to this you can quickly and effortlessly prepare a sleeping place;
- spacious compartments for linen accessories, which can accommodate not only everyday items, but also where you can put spare sets of linen, pillows, and blankets.
Negative reviews are usually associated with cheap sofas of poor quality and unreliable construction.
You can see what the sofa is and how it is disassembled in the video below.
