It's almost the end of the month and for those of you moving, it's time to start the dreaded pack-up. As I myself am one of those people, I am looking at the Sliding Sofa right now and wishing all--hell, any--of my furniture was this easy to move. Made from five molded pieces of anodized aluminum, the couch simply slips together when you are ready to use, and stacks up nicely when on the move.
Created by Baita Design, the Slide Sofa, is not only good for moving but also for cleaning. You know how heavy that couch is to move when vacuuming; imagine you could just pick it up and stack it in the corner! You would then have the cleanest apartment in all of the land, now wouldn't you?
