It's not often we admire the looks of an apartment-sized sleeper sofa, but we have to hand it to Grandin Road for the Davenport, which stands out for its good price ($899) and its contemporary looks -- an anomaly in a catalogue of otherwise more transitional and traditional furniture.
Davenport's footprint is the same as any other smallish sofa and it unfolds into a full size queen bed. If you have long-term houseguests who like to snuggle this might not be the solution for you, because there's a furrow down the middle of the bed where the un-fold happens. On the other hand, the furrow could help keep the peace between houseguests who weren't planning on sharing a bed.
$899 in persimmon or buff, from Grandin Road.

I found THE most comfortable couch/sleeper. It seemed to have no compromises, no bar in the back, no crack down middle, no small sizing. - by far the plushest mattress between looking at everything from a cheap IKEA (under $500)to a mid-range futon/click-clack (decent considerations starting @ $500) to the top of the line AU sleeper (just over $2000). - It's only down side was the the styling was in the process of being updated to a cleaner more contemporary look, (sample had a big "bubba" look)and they were adding a loveseat for small rooms. They called it a Sofa Bedder and the new design is due out this spring and hitting under $900- by far the most comfy for the $$ I found. - The same guys also had a "Murphy Chest" which was like a Murphy Bed but more portable for Apartments. Very cool design but I needed a sofa.
They gave me a link to youtube of the loveseat with no sound
