At Stance, every new product we design is built to answer an unmet furniture need in healthcare spaces. For too long, standard healthcare sleep sofas have missed the mark when it comes to comfort and flexibility. These products are often used for extended periods of time, and varieties typically found in healthcare environments have long been regarded as uncomfortable, inflexible to adapt for non-sleep related use, or both.

That’s where Stance’s mission, Improving Lives by Design, comes in – and delivers our robust collection of sleep solution products designed to promote quality rest. Our Rochester, Podium, Strada, and Carson sleep sofas, as well as our Verity sleeper, combine to offer the industry’s most thoughtful selection of sleep solution furniture for healthcare. With each offering unique specifications and features, all are adaptable to support myriad healthcare applications, from clinical to therapeutic environments:

With its generous sleep surface size (77” x 27”!) and plush mattress, our Rochester Sleep Sofa provides an unexpectedly cozy-meets-sturdy sleeping area for patients, visitors, and care providers. This mechanism-free product easily converts to and from sleep mode. Our signature, dual emphasis on function and form shines on this product, with eye-catching aesthetic options including contrasting fabrics and custom finishes.

Our Podium Sleep Sofa effortlessly combines contemporary design with comfort, making it an excellent choice for patient rooms and staff respite areas. The mechanism-free product makes transitioning to and from sleep mode a breeze, with a back cushion which easily folds to become a sleep surface. With integrated table options and various sleep widths, Podium is adaptable for use while resting and active. The sofas are available in three size options (84”, 90” and 96”), 17 models in total, and offer a variety of customizations for convenience, including built-in USB charging ports.

For smaller spaces or environments that adopt a more modern aesthetic, our contemporary Strada Sleep Sofa is ideal. While offering a minimalist footprint, Strada upholds Stance’s “over-engineered for comfort” design commitment, offering a rest area that is not only highly comfortable, but easy. The mechanism-free sofa seamlessly converts to the sleep position atop a continuous cushion.

With its accommodative 76” x 35” sleep surface, our Carson Sleep Sofa is adaptable in virtually any healthcare space where rest is an option. Its multiple aesthetic and functional options include field-replaceable arm caps and feet, contrasting fabrics, choice of casters or wood legs, custom finishes, and choice of wood, polyurethane, or solid surface arm caps. Its heavy-duty mechanism is concealed, while Carson’s surface is easy-to-clean with a moisture barrier.

Finally, our Verity Sleeper is perhaps the most versatile sleep solution product of all, with three easy-to-operate positions and a generous 80” long sleep surface when in sleep mode.  Facilities especially benefit from Verity with its easy-clean surfaces, stitched to support increased infection resistance.

Stance builds products that stand the test of time – and while our products are strong, they equally deliver unexpected comfort, by design.
