Some living spaces may not be suited for a classic sleeping arrangement. As enticing as a cushy, memory foam king-sized bed sounds, urban studios and tiny homes can’t quite accommodate pieces that large. Luckily, convertible beds are way more sophisticated these days and are built to last, too. Thanks to some unique advancements, these snoozing spaces can also be much more useful than setting up a daybed

You see, many convertible beds these days are made for more than just tucking away and will work to fit your lifestyle. Some are able to convert into a desk or table. Some are sofas that break out into bunk beds. Some are couches and chairs that can spread out on a whim to provide ample sleeping space for several houseguests. And while these options might be a bit on the spendier side, these beds make living much more efficient and look way cooler than pulling out just a typical Murphy bed when your friends stop by for a visit. Ready to try one for yourself? Check out 10 of our favorite convertible beds below!
