40 years of Easy Living: A milestone in space-saving living

In 1985 Easy Living started as an all-round furniture store on the Ceintuurbaan in Amsterdam. What then included a wide collection of modern furniture, quickly grew into a specialist in sofa beds and folding beds. With the move to Middenweg in 1990, this specialization became permanent and since then Easy Living has been a household name in Amsterdam and far beyond. This year, the store celebrates its 40th anniversary, a special anniversary that underlines the rich history and successful future of the business.

The store was taken over by Jeroen Faber and Daniëlle Bergman in 2016, giving Easy Living a new generation of entrepreneurs. This family business is built on a foundation of passion, craftsmanship and customer focus. Jeroen and Danielle have further developed Easy Living in recent years, with renovations in the showroom, an improved website and more efficient logistics processes. With a team of eight employees and a warehouse in Edam, Easy Living continues to strive for the best possible service and quality.

In a city like Amsterdam, where space is often scarce, Easy Living offers a solution. But also several guest rooms and work rooms throughout the Netherlands are filled with a space-saving solution. People do not always want to have a bed in the room if you do not need it during the day! With more than 50 different sofa beds and 20 types of folding beds, there is a smart solution for every room.

Ease of use is key. The latest models can be transformed from a stylish sofa to a comfortable bed in no time. The latest innovation? A fully electrically operated folding bed“We are not satisfied until everyone has an Easy Living sofa bed or folding bed in their home,” laughs Daniëlle.

The corona pandemic brought new challenges, but also opportunities. With the rise of working from home, the demand for multifunctional furniture grew. A folding bed that is a work table during the day and a comfortable bed at night? The perfect solution for the modern city dweller.

“In addition, people nowadays have to divide their living space more intelligently and we can respond perfectly to that,” says Jeroen. With the tight housing market, sometimes m2 has to be used more efficiently and Easy Living always has good ideas for that!

In addition to quality and innovation, service is one of Easy Living's spearheads. The in-house assembly team ensures professional installation and customers appreciate the entire process, from advice in the showroom to installation at home. This is also evident from the excellent reviews and the recent sixth place in the national election of the Netherlands' Nicest Shop in the Living category.

With a mix of experience, innovation and customer focus, Easy Living continues to develop. Visits to European fairs ensure that the collection remains up-to-date with the latest trends and techniques. And although online ordering is possible, the physical showroom remains the place where customers can truly experience the quality and comfort of the products.

After 40 years, Easy Living is still a household name and ready for the future. On to the next decades of space-saving and stylish living!
