Direct Answer
The most practical sofa-cum-bed for Indian guest rooms: a 3-seater that converts to a double bed (180-190 cm when extended, 130-140 cm width) with pull-out or fold-flat mechanism. Quality requires: firm foam (35+ kg/m3) that functions as both comfortable seating and adequate sleeping surface, smooth conversion mechanism rated for daily operation, and washable cushion covers for guest hygiene. For infrequent guests (monthly), a quality sofa-cum-bed provides better space efficiency than maintaining a separate guest bedroom.
Understanding this is critical for Indian furniture buyers. Conditions in Indian homes including seasonal humidity variation, multi-generational use, Indian cooking proximity, and the 15-20 year ownership horizon all factor into furniture decisions differently than in European or American contexts.
