1. Burrow Shift Sleeper Sofa
Burrow is an online furniture brand that designs modular sofas to fit smaller spaces. The sleeper sectional is upholstered in a cozy jersey material and is placed low on the ground. It also has round wood feet. The chaise can be lifted to reveal a sleeping area with a comfy foam mattress as well as storage sections for bedding. The model is available in a variety of color choices and can be combined with other seating options for an individual style. It’s easy to purchase and usually arrives within a week or less and is significantly more quickly than other furniture manufacturers we’ve tested.
Some sofa beds require an enormous amount of effort to put together. The Shift is easy to assemble and transforms from a couch to bed in a matter of 1-2 steps. The only thing that is difficult is to remove the back cushions, tuck the mattress in and replace them. The sleeper sofa also has an USB plug to charge electronic devices and a pocket to store pillows or blankets. The arm cushions can double as normal pillows that can be removed and encased in a pillowcase, making it easy to change out to guests.
The best part about the Burrow Shift is that it doesn’t require a boxspring or foundation, which makes it smaller and easier to move into new apartments or homes than other sleeper couches. The company claims they’ve reengineered their pieces to “split apart into smaller, reusable boxes” and that their modular design can be adapted to families as they move from a sectional with storage chaise and pull out to loveseat over time.

While there are other couch-in-a-box brands to choose from, we prefer Burrow because they’re geared towards speedy delivery and ease of use. The Shift Sofa is delivered in multiple boxes, each labeled and easily carried up the stairs by an average-sized adult. It’s also a better choice for renters due to the fact that there’s no extra cost for delivery and assembly with white gloves, which isn’t offered by other furniture-in a-box companies.
