My Favorite Sofa Is Discounted for Joybird’s Semiannual Sale

在亲自为我们的购买指南测试了数十张沙发，并听取了 WIRED 评测团队其他测试人员的数十条反馈后，我有了很多强烈的个人观点。并非我测试过的每一张沙发都很棒，但在所有出色的产品中，很少有能让我一直留用的。我尝试过最喜欢的沙发——Joybird 的 Eliot 睡眠沙发——目前正在打折，作为 Joybird 半年度促销活动的一部分，其许多外观精美的同系列产品也在降价。此次促销活动定于 11 月 1 日结束，因此你应该现在就去选购，以获得最好的选择。

There are a few things to keep in mind. Joybird furniture is custom-made, so unless something is marked specifically as “Ready to Ship,” it isn’t going to be dispatched as quickly as it would be from some other retailers. And while you can get 30 percent off site wide, the best deals are on best-selling items, on which you can save up to 40 percent. Most items are backed by a limited lifetime warranty and include free premium in-home delivery. You can order a free swatch kit to pick out your fabric, but unfortunately, it won’t arrive in time for you to shop the sale. (Joybird usually has sales around Black Friday, too, so picking a fabric now could be good planning ahead.)

有几点需要注意。Joybird 的家具是定制的，所以除非商品特别标注为“现货”（Ready to Ship），否则它的发货速度不会像其他零售商那样快。虽然全场可以享受 7 折优惠，但最优惠的折扣集中在畅销商品上，最高可节省 40%。大多数商品都有有限终身保修，并包含免费的高级送货上门服务。你可以订购免费的面料样本套件来挑选布料，但不幸的是，它无法在你赶上这次促销活动之前送达。（Joybird 通常在黑色星期五前后也有促销活动，所以现在挑选面料可以作为提前规划。）

The Eliot Sleeper Sofa is so darn comfortable. It isn’t so soft that you sink in and get locked there, but it’s soft enough that you can chill for hours. It has a built-in pull-out mattress that has received rave reviews from myself and every guest I’ve ever had. Over the summer in a heat wave before I had an air conditioning unit, I found myself sleeping in the living room on the pull-out for a week. Somehow I managed to get good rest, despite the fact that my living room was approximately 100 million degrees. (Note that my model is the premium Tempur-Response memory foam mattress.)

Eliot 睡眠沙发真的非常舒适。它不会软到让你陷进去就出不来，但又足够柔软，让你可以在上面放松几个小时。它内置的拉出式床垫得到了我以及我所有客人的高度评价。去年夏天，在还没安装空调的热浪期间，我不得不在客厅的拉出式床垫上睡了一周。尽管当时客厅气温高达一亿度，但我竟然还是休息得很好。（请注意，我的型号配备的是高级 Tempur-Response 记忆棉床垫。）

It has some quirks; the buttons catch crumbs, the armrests aren’t quite wide enough to rest a cup of coffee without some nerves involved, and sometimes I have to adjust the cushions. But I’ve taken enough fantastic naps on this couch that I can wholeheartedly recommend it, even if you don’t get the hot pink velvet option. It’s comfortable to sleep on when it’s folded up as well. After more than a year of daily use, it still looks brand-new.

它也有一些小毛病：纽扣容易积攒碎屑，扶手不够宽，放咖啡杯时会让人提心吊胆，有时我还得调整靠垫。但我在这张沙发上睡过太多次美觉，所以我可以全心全意地推荐它，即使你没选亮粉色的天鹅绒款式。它在折叠状态下睡觉也很舒服。经过一年多的日常使用，它看起来依然像新的一样。

I can’t speak to the quality of Joybird’s chairs, beds, or accent furniture, since I haven’t personally tried them, but I think the fact that I’ve kept the Elliot in my home since I reviewed it speaks for itself. If you need a furniture upgrade, this sale is worth checking out before it disappears.

我无法评价 Joybird 的椅子、床或装饰家具的质量，因为我没有亲自试用过，但我认为我自评测以来一直把 Eliot 留在家里使用，这本身就说明了问题。如果你需要升级家具，在这次促销结束前，它非常值得一看。
