Which is better for a small apartment?

The Lofka. At 51.2 inches wide and 36.2 inches high as a sofa, it fits where the 61-inch Henry will not, and it reclines instead of needing extra clearance.

Which sleeps two people?

Only the Henry. Its queen mattress with pocket coils and memory foam is built for two. The Lofka's 71-inch bed is best for one adult or a child.

Is the Henry worth the extra money?

If guests stay overnight more than a few times a year, yes. You get a real queen mattress, a hand-built wood frame and reversible cushions. For occasional naps and one guest, the Lofka covers it for far less.

The Henry, on paper. A kiln-dried hand-built frame, solid wood legs and a contract-grade rating point to a longer life than the Lofka's foam-and-metal build.

Can I sleep on the Lofka every night?

Not comfortably. The 71-inch foam surface is a guest bed, not a daily mattress. The Henry's spring and memory foam mattress is the better long-term sleep surface.

Do either come with a mattress?

Both do. The Lofka has built-in foam padding. The Henry includes a traditional spring mattress with a pocket coil system and memory foam.

Lofka 3 in 1 Convertible Sleeper Loveseat vs West Elm Henry Sleeper Sofa

Buy the Lofka if you need a small, cheap, multi-position seat that also sleeps one person, and you want to spend well under $1,000. Buy the West Elm Henry if you regularly host couples overnight and want a real queen mattress with a hand-built frame. The Lofka is a compact 51.2-inch loveseat that folds flat to 71 inches; the Henry is a 61-inch sofa that opens to a queen bed 89 inches deep.
