Bruno corner sofa composition
Before we dive into our testing experience, let us give you a quick overview of the Bruno Corner Sofa.
Customisation
We tested the corner sofa from Bruno in the size 140 x 200 cm (55.1 x 78.7”). 📏
This is a 2-seater sofa with a short chaise longue.
But you can choose different sizes and chaise options depending on your needs.
For the fabric, we decided on a bold turquoise, but there are more subtle colour options.
We also opted for wooden legs, but metal feet are also available.
Materials
The Bruno Corner Sofa is made from high-quality materials. ✨
It has the following composition:
- Pocket-spring core: Instead of foam, the sofa bed includes a total of 895 pocket springs for increased stability and support
- Storage space: There is generous storage space under the chaise, handy for pillows, blankets and bed linen
- Solid wood frame: By using durable solid wood instead of chipboard, the sofa has a weight limit of up to 220 kg (485 lbs)
Read on to find out how these materials contributed to our sleeping comfort.
Is the Bruno corner sofa comfortable?
We used the Bruno Corner Sofa every day to get a real and honest experience.
Sitting on the Bruno Corner Sofa
The stability provided by the pocket spring core was immediately evident.
Compared to standard sofa beds, you don’t sink in but stay supported on the chair base. 💪
It felt very comfortable to sit on and spend an evening watching movies.
The high backrest also offers plenty of support for the back, while the chaise lounge provides space to put your feet up.
Sleeping on the Bruno Corner Sofa
A sofa that converts into a bed must serve more than one purpose when it comes to comfort.
Luckily, we also experienced a comfortable sleep on the Bruno Corner Sofa for a few nights.
Our testers experienced minimal motion transfer.
When two testers (weighing around 80 kg and 95 kg) slept on the sofa bed, neither were disturbed during the night by movement from the other.
We also found our comfort significantly increased with the addition of a mattress topper. ➕
By having this extra few centimetres of comfort, you’ll feel deeper pressure relief in the hips and shoulders in all sleeping positions.
Unfortunately, we found the Bruno Corner Sofa was slightly too firm as a permanent sleeping solution. 🧱
You need to be able to sink deeper to relieve certain pressure points, particularly in the side position.
We’d recommend using a topper if the Bruno Corner Sofa is to be a long-term sleeping solution.
How easy is it to use the Bruno corner sofa?
The Bruno Corner Sofa can easily be converted into a bed. 🔁
Simply take the loop at the front of the bed, position your foot on the foot-hold and pull.
You can convert it back into a sofa within just a few minutes.
Storage space
Storage space is often overlooked but can be a great bonus, especially for smaller spaces with limited storage.
When we tested the Bruno Corner Sofa, we were particularly curious about how much storage space it actually offers.
Since we chose the short chaise longue, the corner sofa includes a total of 143 litres of storage space. 🎒
It can be kept open by a compressed air piston mechanism (similar to an ottoman bed).
We found that there is plenty of space for pillows and blankets.
However, it may not be deep enough to store a topper.
Is the Bruno Corner Sofa good quality?
When choosing a sofa, quality and material play a crucial role - both in the look and feel, but also the durability and functionality.
Overall, the Bruno Corner Sofa is made with excellent quality and workmanship.
Instead of chipboard, Bruno uses FSC-approved [1] solid wood pine for extra durability. 🪵
The wood is also covered with a layer of felt to prevent it from being damaged.
The sofa fabric is made from 100% polyester with an abrasion rating [2] of 81,000 Martindale.
This refers to how hardwearing fabric is, with this score being significantly high and suitable for commercial use. 🌟
Therefore, the Bruno Corner Sofa should be an incredibly long-lasting product for any household.
In fact, it comes with a 10-year guarantee.
We also noted that the Bruno Corner Sofa is made with real screws instead of wood glue, further contributing to its overall durability.
Bruno Corner Sofa delivery & assembly
We evaluated the delivery and assembly experience of the Bruno Corner Sofa during our test.
Delivery
When we placed our order, we were able to choose a suitable delivery date to ensure we would be home. 🕜
Although the website states it takes 1 - 3 weeks for delivery, the corner sofa arrived after about a week.
On the day of delivery, we were called an hour prior to the sofa being delivered.
Since we also tested the Bruno chair bed, we received a total of seven packages! 📦
The packages were very heavy, but luckily, the delivery drivers brought them into our room of choice.
We had a seamless and well-communicated delivery experience overall. ✔️
Unpacking the Bruno Corner Sofa
Our first step was to unwrap all of the packages from the plastic and cardboard.
Fortunately, Bruno supplied a knife, which made this process easier.
Overall, everything was well packaged to ensure the products weren’t damaged during delivery. 📦
However, this also meant a lot of packaging to throw out - two garbage fulls, to be exact!
Assembling
The assembly process is fairly easy, and most people should be able to manage it themselves.
Bruno also provides helpful assembly instructions and all the necessary tools. 🛠️
We just had to connect the individual parts and screw them together.
The advantage of using screws instead of wood glue is that you are able to take the sofa bed apart again if you move. 🏚️
It also makes the Bruno Corner Sofa much more durable.
Bruno also provided felt gliders to stick on the wooden feet of the corner sofa.
This prevents the floor from getting scratched if you decide to move the sofa.
Overall, the assembling process took around 45 minutes to complete.
We’d recommend two people assemble the sofa as some of the parts are quite heavy. 🧑🤝🧑
