by Ann Withanee — June 27, 2012—Wieland introduced its new sleepToo healthcare collection during NeoCon 2012 at the Merchandise Mart, Chicago. For sleepToo’s design and versatility, it was awarded a Gold in the healthcare seating category in the Best of NeoCon product competition. The annual NeoCon contract furnishings show attracts upwards of 40,000 facilities, government, design and architecture professionals.
In a classic, simple full-front design, sleepToo offers comfortable patient seating, and for family members planning to stay overnight, sleepToo opens into a bed. Five lengths are offered to fit any space.
A pneumatic device quickly and easily converts the sofa into a sleep sofa. The design goes beyond the typical sleep sofa by integrating a table. The optional table can be adjusted at three heights to accommodate a variety of activities.
Complementing its classic front design, sleepToo offers leg styles in either wood or metal. It can also be ordered with a plinth base. Casters are available on non-table models. A variety of fabrics can be coordinated to the room’s privacy curtains and window dressings.
In keeping with the need for comfortable healthcare rooms, the sleepToo goes beyond, offering not only comfortable patient and guest seating during the day, but also accommodation for family members who plan to spend the night.
