If You Are Having Trouble Getting Furniture Into Your Basement - Have You Tried Futons?
You’re in your dark, gloomy basement, changing out some laundry and seeing the wide open area that is around you. It would be great if you could bring some furniture down here and some carpet and drywall. The stairs coming down make it impossible to get a sofa down here and you walk back upstairs and close the door. What if there was a way to get furniture down there that would be quality and would also give you control over the fabric look of your furniture?

There’s that jagged winding stairway that curves
around to the floor of the basement. You’re pretty sure in the history of your
home no furniture has ever been placed in it. It’s dark, gloomy and other than
the washer and dryer you have no reason for being in your basement. One day
your friend comes over and says, “wouldn’t it be great if you could turn this
basement into a family room?? An idea begins.
The first problem isn’t remodeling the room. You figure with the right drywall,
some carpet and padding and some paint this room can come to life. No, the real
problem is how on Earth are you getting furniture into this basement? Sounds
tough doesn’t it. A stairway that is going to prevent any type of turning or
twisting of furniture to get it down there. Here’s an idea for you, how about
futon furniture?
Futon furniture incorporates the idea of a frame that comes in individual
components. You’ve got two side arms, two rails and a seat rack and back rack.
These six components have a very narrow profile by themselves. How does this
help you? Easy, you can take each piece of futon one by one into the basement
and assemble the futon frame there.
Simple? Oh yes. Futon furniture goes where other furniture can’t and is
probably the reason why futons are so popular. Besides the frame you have a
mattress which is separate. The innerspring futon mattresses fold up lengthwise
in half that allows them to be maneuvered into most spots. However , if you’ve
got a really tight spot then perhaps a cotton and foam mattress is the way to
go. These are much easier to twist and turn into any space.
You’re not stuck with just one look either. Futon furniture has available for
it what are called futon covers. These coverings usually just zip on over the
mattress. A great selection of prints and solid colors are sure to help you
find exactly the right mix for your home décor.
So next time you’re thinking of converting your basement into a family room and
are stuck on ideas for furniture. Consider futon frames. These are easy to get
into any space. They come in a wide variety of styles and don’t forget about
the great selection of prints and solid futon coverings that can be purchased
to create your own look.
