In a studio flat, the choice depends on daily routines and how you use the room. A sofa bed gives one area two functions but needs converting. A separate bed permanently occupies its footprint without requiring nightly unfolding.
Draw two complete room layouts
In the first plan, place a bed and seating; in the second, draw the sofa both closed and open. Check access to the wardrobe, window and desk in each. The decision becomes clearer when you also account for furniture that must move and bedding storage, rather than sofa width alone.
A practical check before choosing
- Note how often you need the room for visitors or daytime work.
- Mark where the coffee table and sofa cushions will go overnight.
- Consider whether every regular user can comfortably operate the sofa.

A common buying question
Does a sofa bed always save space?
It can free floor space during the day, but at night it needs its full open footprint. The benefit depends on the layout and your willingness to rearrange the room.
