Just because you live in a small space doesn’t mean you can’t have people stay over—and, no, you don’t have to subject them to a blow-up mattress. A sofa bed will make company feel right at home, without taking up any extra room during the daytime. Even once your visitors are gone, you’ll be happy you made the purchase—it makes for an epic movie night setup. That being said, when you’re working with tight quarters, you don’t necessarily have the luxury of lounging around on an 85-inch-plus couch. From streamlined trundles to convertible loveseats, we scoured the web for the best sleeper sofas for small spaces. Discover our 13 favorites, below.

Like a blow-up mattress, this sofa bed is a one-person operation. Unlike a blow-up mattress, your guests won’t sink to the floor in the middle of the night only to wake up with a backache. Another plus: The armrests act as a footboard and headboard once unfolded.
