1. Burrow Shift Sleeper Sofa

Burrow is a direct-to-consumer furniture brand that makes modular sofas that fit in smaller spaces. Their sleeper sectional couch with recliner and pull out bed has a soft jersey cover that is low to the ground, with wooden feet that are round. The chaise can be lifted to reveal a sleeping area with a comfortable mattress and storage compartments for bedding. This model comes in several color choices and can be paired with other seating options for a customizable look. It's simple to order and usually will arrive in a week or less, which is much quicker than other furniture companies we've tested.

It is necessary to remove the back cushions and tuck in the mattress however there aren't any other complicated steps. The sleeper pullout sofa sleeper also has an USB port for charging electronics and a pocket to store pillows or blankets. The arm cushions can be used as normal pillows. They can be covered with a pillowcase and removed to allow room for guests.

The most appealing aspect of the Burrow Shift is that it doesn't require a boxspring or foundation, making it smaller and easy to move into new homes or apartments than most other sleeper couches.

While there are other sofa-in-a-box brands to choose from, we like Burrow because they're geared towards speedy delivery and ease of use. The Shift Sofa comes in several boxes, all labeled and easily carried up the steps by an average-sized adult. It's also a better choice for renters because there's no additional cost for white glove delivery and assembly that isn't provided by other furniture-in-a-box companies.

Its low profile may not be as comfy for taller people, but it's a great choice for small spaces and those who are just starting out in the apartment market who require a sofa that is elegant and practical. The solid, kiln-dried wood frame is sturdy and the queen-sized pull-out bed offers plenty of room for guests. The only downside is that you'll need to be careful when making the bed, since the mattress sits right next to the chaise and it's easy to stub your toe.
