I'd like to buy a sofabed from argos but....

Options
I haven't sat or layed on it so I dont know if i really want it. I am looking at the Jennifer Leather 2 seater and wondered if anyone has this and could advise me on their purchase. Pro's and con's would be appreciated.

Has anyone ordered a sofabed from argos without trying it and what was your experience? Thanks.

I have looked at other places but I am really restricted by my measurements. Its taken me ages to find this one.:D

    You can try this: Nabru.co.uk

    I've got a sofa bed from them and it's wonderful. You pick your modules, arm rests (if you want them), fabric and colour. You can use the program on the website so it'll show you the size. The sofa is very comfy and because the cushions are on top of mdf board they will never sag! I bought mine 4 years ago and it's just as good now as it was when new. It comes flat pack, so no worries of getting it through doors. I did pay a bit extra for the chap who delivered it to put it together for me (around £40).

    I have no affiliations with this company, I'm just a very happy customer :)
  • Hi there I bought my sofas from Argos, however my mum gave me some useful information at the time. Homebase and Argos furniture is made by the same company. My boyfriend and me then found our nearest Homebase that had a furniture showroom and went and tested out the sofas there.
    You can do this on the Homebase website in the store locater and select furniture showrooms.

    BTW the sofa bed your looking at is actually cheaper at Homebase at the moment:money:

    Bad experience with Argos sofa delivery though and had to wait 6 weeks when they originally said 4 weeks (they did want to extend it even longer!) We didn't have any sofas at the time though so was more an inconvenience. :cool:

    If your gonna get a sofa bed I would advise a metal frame one, the other ones tend to go out of shape if you actually sleep on them.
  • Thanks guys great advice, off to look homebase now.
  • Maybe check it out in Homebase and then order through Argos before 6 November using the £100 discount code on Argos home page. Also don't forget Quidco at 6%.

    You can always send it back to argos if you didnt like it, or try and see if there are any reviews of the one you want on line.
  • I have bought a sofa from argos and to be honest I was not impressed.

    I have just got a sofa from a company called nabru. I was recommend by a friend to use this company, the sofa is only 2 weeks old but I already love it! :)
