Description
Jay-Be Elegance 2 seater sofa bed with mattress built in
The Jay-Be Elegance is a 2 seater sofa bed with a 195 x 120cm deep sprung mattress built in, behind high, angled arms. It is 174cm wide, opens to a bed the width of a UK small double, is made to order in the UK in 26 fabrics, costs £1,996.99 and is delivered free to mainland England and Wales.
The Elegance is the tailored one of Jay-Be’s range: its arms are tall (74cm) and flare out slightly towards the top, so it looks crisp and upright in a modern living room, study or spare room. Because it is a sofa bed with a mattress rather than a click clack, your guests sleep on a real sprung mattress, not on the seat cushions. The bed unfolds forward on a steel frame and the cushions stay on the sofa.
Will it fit my room?
The sofa needs 174 x 100cm of floor and stands 88cm high (74cm at the arm). Opened, it is 215cm from the back of the sofa to the foot of the bed, so allow a clear run of about 2.3m from the wall. If you need more seats, see the Elegance 3 seater sofa bed; for a smaller footprint, the Elegance snuggler sofa bed opens to a single bed.

The mattress: what you are actually sleeping on
Jay-Be’s deep e-Sprung mattress is built in layers: a viscose-enriched cover, wool comfort layers on both sides, breathable e-Fibre support layers, high-density e-Fibre and an e-Spring core in the middle. The sleeping area is 195 x 120cm, the width of a UK small double (120 x 190cm) and 5cm longer, so a small double fitted sheet is the one to buy. Jay-Be states the mattress is 100% recyclable at the end of its life.
The mattress stays on the frame when the bed is folded away, and the seat and back cushions stay on the sofa, so there is nothing to lift off and find a home for.

A 195 x 120cm bed, the width of a UK small double and 5cm longer. The top of the mattress sits 55cm off the floor.
How much room do I need to open it?
The sofa is 174cm wide and 100cm deep. Opened, it is 215cm from the back of the sofa to the foot of the bed, so plan for about 2.3m from the wall.
Do I have to take the cushions off to open it?
