in this video, i explain why the koala sofa bed made the most sense for my new studio apartment compared to a traditional bed/sleeping on the floor. living in a smaller space forces you to get creative and look for items that have a multi-functional purpose. let me know your thoughts in the comments!

    Very helpful. Our issue is that the doorway into the room is so constricted that we couldn't possibly get a regular sleeper sofa in. We bought a small loveseat that came in pieces but we really wanted a sleeper sofa. This looks like the answer for us. Thanks!

    Thank you so much! I have been trying to find a quality, comfortable solution for having overnight guests in my small apartment. Very helpful.

    I also just moved to Seattle to a smaller space and bought this exact same couch!! I was looking for a review before I bought it but there isn't an unsponsored one to be found... until now:) It truly is a great sofa bed AND couch. I've had two guests sleep on it, and I slept on it for a few nights. It's also great for simply sitting on and watching TV. I'm glad you mentioned the crease - I'm a back sleeper so it did cause some discomfort for me, but I'm actually short enough to where I can lay sideways and avoid the crease all together if I so choose. Definitely something to think about for other people buying tho. Overall this was a great video and I'm glad there's finally a real review of the koala on the internet cause it truly is a great pick!

    Would still be on the lookout for mold if you live in an area that gets humid in the summer- since you're directly on the floor.

    This was a great, informative video. Thank you so much!
  • @Susan_McG
    Appreciate this honest, thorough review!

    Nice review. Hope you’re enjoying Seattle (my hometown) I bet it was a bit of culture shock compared to St Louis

    cant wait to see how your gonna minimasign your apt!

    Does it sleep warm or hot? Foam tends to be warmer and i prefer to sleep on a cooler surface and with fan on.

    Dope sofa man! Looks pretty comfy and makes it seem like you have a bunch of room when it's in its couch form
  • hey! very informative video! could you please comment if the sofa is comfortable to sleep on a regular basis? We intend to buy one but use it for regular sleeping purposes. is the mattress holding its shape ?

    as you age if you spend a lot of time on your feet, you will grow to appreciate your feet hanging off the bed for strengthening / not putting pressure on your ankles.

    Enjoyed seeing your hairy legs and backside view. Otherwise, I don't have anything constructive or complimentary to ssy about your video or the subject matter. Hopefully, your move to Seattle will turn out to be a happy and successful decision. Be well! P.S. The YouTube algorithm goddess is a cruel mistress.
