Daybed

Chinese daybed from the Ming Dynasty

A daybed is an item of furniture used as a bed as well as for lounging, reclining, and seating in a common room.[1] It may be considered a form of multifunctional furniture. Their frames can be made out of wood, metal, or a combination of wood and metal.[2] They are a cross between a chaise longue, a couch, and a bed.

Daybeds typically feature a back and sides and may, for example, come in twin size (100 cm × 190 cm; 39 in × 75 in). Daybeds often feature a trundle to expand sleeping capacity.
