Great sofa for chilling on and turns into a decent bed that you could happily have friends come over and sleep on. I sleep on it very often it's so comfortable. I do recommend to use a matress topper as well for long durations to make it feel more like a traditional matress and you can't feel the different sections as much when laying down. Show details

Love it. Easy to put together. Well packaged and each package not too heavy. Sofa bed has been used by Christmas guests and they both had good sleeps and were even contemplating getting their own for their visitors Show details

Super easy to assemble. Recommended 2 person set up but I set it up solo and it was easy. Very comfy and the seats are nice and deep.

Love the 1.5 seater! Plenty of space to curl up and read a book. Its very soft and comfortable as both a bed and chair and is easy to pull out the bed mattress. I have purchased several koala items and have been impressed by the quality and functionality. Show details

Who knew a sofa bed could be this good? It’s both stylish and impressively comfortable! The seamless bed setup is incredibly practical, and there was a period where we genuinely preferred it over our main bed! Show details

Absolutely in love with our Cushy Sofa Bed. It’s a beautiful colour and comfy as both bed and sofa. It has given me our spare room back to be used as both my office and guest room. Can’t recommend enough ! Show details

My partner and I have had this Koala Sofa bed for about 2 weeks now and love it! The assembly was super easy to follow and so quick and it’s comfortable as both a bed and a sofa (we mainly use it as a sofa). Love the gum leaf colour too!! Show details

We love our 1.5 seater sofa beds, they are super roomy for watching TV and great for a single bed when guests stay! Pulls down into bed super quickly and back into a chair. We love the colour too! Show details

Purchased the sunset rust koala (cushy) sofa bed as a 1.5 seater. I love the colour and boucle-style material. It doubles as a nursery couch and a pull-out bed. It's on the firm side, but I don't mind it too much. 5 stars because it's just what we need. I haven't slept on it for more than a week, so I can't review how my back would feel. Show details

Super happy with my Koala sofa bed, it’s already been well used, and is comfy to sleep on (yes I’ve also tried it) super cozy as an extra big arm chair and I love the colour & design. Not cheap, but worth it. Max Show details

Purchased a 1.5 seater koala sofa bed, and it has already made our lounge room more hospitable to guests. Love it and love the colour (a dusty pink). Love how it’s wide enough to sit two people snuggled. Our dog loves it too, don’t let the photo fool you - he’s a long boy! Show details

Works fine as a basic couch without recline or head support, but as a bed it fails to be much better than a traditional metal/spring fold-out couch bed unless you like firm/hard mattresses. I've been sleeping on it for a few nights now while visiting friends and it's rock-hard. I'd say it's ever so slightly better than sleeping directly on the… Read more

hardwood floor but not as good as sleeping on a thick carpeted floor. I'm a side-sleeper who usually sleeps on a cloud-like soft-medium mattress (Madison Waldorf). Side-sleeping with a pillow between your lower legs is the best sleep position, according to doctors and studies, for your digestion, breathing and spinal alignment. This koala Sofa Bed has basically zero give for your shoulders and hips so I'm just sore this whole trip, as I can only sleep on my side. This would actually be a great bed for someone who likes a firm/hard mattress but I feel like most people in the west don't so this should have a big warning about how firm/hard it is. My wife tried it one night also and absolutely hated it too, commenting on how much it hurt her body sleeping on it. I definitely wouldn't buy it or recommend it to anyone unless they like a firm/hard mattress.

Comfortable, Versatile, Perfect as an occasional couch and great for movie nights! – Great addition to the living room. I deliberated over purchasing the Cushy Sofy for a long time and trawled through many reviews. Happy to say it's been one of the best pieces of furniture I've purchased and would definitely buy another one if I had the need for it. I bought the 3-Seater (Queen) with Luxe fabric and I'm definitely happy with the… Read more

feel of the upgraded fabric so I'd say yes it's worth the extra money to upgrade. As per other reviews, yes there is a bit of slope forward but not to the point where you're going to slide off the sofa. I've found I can even remove the back pillow and just sit right back against the backrest and it's still comfortable and it removes the feeling of the slope all together as you have extra room to sit deeper. As a bed, it's very easy to set up and super comfortable with no springs or uncomfortable metal struts like the good ol' days. I do find the mattress topper gets pretty warm in summer though, so I generally opt not to use it. It's not an everyday couch for the whole family - even Koala will tell you that - but if you're looking for a versatile piece of furniture that ticks more than one box, then I'd recommend it.

Comfortable, Convenient, and Seamless Experience! – I recently purchased the Koala Cushy Sofa Bed and I couldn't be happier with my decision. From start to finish, the entire process was a breeze. Ordering was simple, delivery was prompt and hassle-free, and assembling the sofa bed was a cinch thanks to the clear and easy-to-follow instructions provided. But the true highlight of this experience… Read more

is the comfort level of the sofa bed itself. Whether I'm using it as a sofa for lounging during the day or as a bed for guests at night, it provides exceptional comfort and support. The quality of the materials used is evident, and I appreciate the attention to detail that has gone into its design.

Furthermore, I must commend Koala for their excellent customer service. Communication was top-notch throughout, and it's clear that they genuinely care about their customers' satisfaction.

Overall, I highly recommend the Koala Cushy Sofa Bed to anyone in need of a versatile and comfortable seating and sleeping solution. It's a game-changer for my living space, and I couldn't be more pleased with my purchase.

The delivery of the sofa bed was smooth. I selected the assembly service as well and the delivery people did such a fast and thorough job. It was hassle free. I like the comfort of the sofa. It's soft and the seats are wide. The pillows, however, are a little too soft and limp. They seem like they could fold on themselves after being used for a while.

Took some time to arrive but worth the wait. Chose the silver sands colour in luxe . Very happy with my choice. Decided to put the sofa together with my sister, good opportunity to practice patience and sisterly love …. We got there in the end ! Show details

We replaced a queen size guest bed with this sofa bed. Comfortable enough for guests and packs neatly away so it’s not taking up space. The couch gets some use and is comfortable enough. Show details

well designed and very practical. It folds out smoothly and looks really nice in the room. It is a firmer style mattress though — I’m a side sleeper and found it a bit too firm for overnight use, so not sure. But as a sofa, it’s great quality.

Experienced multiple issues with our order. Do not purchase if you have kids or pets and ever need a replacement part. Our order was delayed even though I had ordered in advance and selected a date range (why have the option of choosing a date range if you cannot meet it?). Customer service was initially helpful with this but only after I reached… Read more

out to them to see what was going on. When the sofa bed arrived, the underbed storage would not go down properly and caused the part to damage. Customer service were again helpful and arranged a replacement part to be delivered to us. We recently had an accident with my baby which caused the mattress to soil. The spill went right through to the mattress, which is not at all protected if you have any kind of spillage. It’s also not at all washable and so I had to throw out the sofa mattress. I reached out to customer service asking if we could pay for a replacement part (just the mattress part of the sofa bed), they declined and said they don’t offer this (note: the sofa is a current model and their website says they do not offer replacement parts on older models. No mention of current models which one would assume means they can offer current model spare parts). I now have to throw the whole sofa bed out when it is only a couple of months old. Will not be buying koala again. In addition to this we found the sofa bed to be flimsy - the arm rests are not very sturdy and the sofa mattress kept falling forward when we sat on it. There is a velcro strip at the back of the mattress and after only a few months of use the velcro was catching on the actual mattress and causing damage to it. There are better products out there.

Not worth 5 stars – Talk about incentivised 5 star reviews.. It looks nice but is uncomfortable as a couch, has a really bad forward lean l no matter how you try manipulate the matress. Also looks like a kids bed when people have to stay over. Of course I wouldn't mind if it wasn't such an expensive peice of upholstered foam Show details

I have processed a return for my koala Sofa Bed 4th generation under the 120day trial. The process was very straight forward and the company has been very helpful throughout including suggesting replacement options that better suit my needs. Thanks Koala!

Couch itself is good. took years before finally getting one because I was worried I wouldn’t like it, but it is actually quite good. Bit expensive but it’s comfy and I love the colour and feel of the cover. I was worried about it sliding forward a lot like of people have said of the older generations but this one doesn’t do it too much. Sometimes of course but that’s just part of the design, but not a big deal. Overall I am happy with it Show details

Very comfortable to lie down on. The extra depth makes it hard to get up out of it as a sofa, especially for older people, we have added a few cushions to help. Putting together was easy except for the cover. While one of the selling points was the removable/washable cover, after the struggle we had getting it on, I don’t think I’ll be removing… Read more

Overall happy with quality and comfort. Shipping was quite expensive to our regional town, so be mindful of that.

The best ottoman!!! It has storage, and turn the top of it upside down and you’ve got a wooden table for your drinks!! Also thank you to Koala customer service, we received the wrong colour cove for our ottoman and a new one was sent out very quickly! Thank you!
