Brühl Fourtwo Corner sofa, Fabric Black

Brühl Fourtwo – the corner sofa that becomes a bed

Play area, lounging area, bed and sofa in one: that is how Brühl describes the Fourtwo by Roland Meyer-Brühl. By day, you sit in the compact corner, and in the evening you stretch out on the longchair. If guests stay over, it turns into a double bed in a few easy steps. Under the swivel sofa's lift-up armrest there is a table surface with room for a book, a glass or the remote control. When needed, you can pull the longchair's side arm forward as an extra backrest. The swivel sofa can be placed to the right or left of the longchair.

Fourtwo corner sofa in black fabric with sleep function

This Fourtwo is a corner sofa with a black fabric cover and a sleep function. The longchair forms the corner on the right, seen from the front, and the swivel sofa stands to its left. Black looks calm and graphic and is more forgiving in everyday use than light shades. The corner sofa suits city flats and guest rooms where one piece of furniture needs to be both a sofa and a guest bed. It seats three people.

Seating comfort and space

According to specialist retailers, the seat rests on a sinuous spring base with a polyurethane foam core. In the soft version it feels soft and relaxed, in compact pleasantly firmer. The seat height of 44 cm is within the usual range. As a sofa, the Fourtwo needs around 2.6 m of wall space and 1.85 m of depth. As a bed, the depth increases to up to 210 cm according to the dimension sheet, so plan for some room to move in front of it.

Functions and additions

On the Fourtwo, the sleep function lies in the swivel sofa. Turn it through 90 degrees until it is parallel to the longchair. In a few easy steps, this creates a double bed of 150 × 210 cm, without any motor. Brühl offers headrests and two table modules as options, which are useful when it is used as a bed. Replacement covers are available from Brühl through specialist retailers.

Caring for the fabric cover

The Fourtwo's fabric covers are removable and attached to the sofa body with hook-and-loop tape. Once you have undone the hook-and-loop tape, cover the hooks straight away with loop tape so that they do not damage the fabric. Washable covers can go on a gentle cycle at up to 30 °C, and others should be dry-cleaned. The cover should never go in the tumble dryer.

Why buy a pre-owned Brühl Fourtwo?

Brühl has been making seating in its workshop in Bad Steben since 1948, with much of the work done by hand. The company has more than 30 years of experience with fittings for convertible models such as the Fourtwo. If a fitting wears, it can be replaced, and the covers are removable and replaceable. This keeps a pre-owned Fourtwo usable for a long time. This piece has been inspected in eight stations.
