Sofa bedsDoing two jobs to save you space and money, our sofa beds never rest – they leave that up to you or your guests. We have a big choice of styles and colours, with options like chair-beds and corner sofa beds. Many have built-in storage for bedclothes, too. With some models you can even choose your type of mattress to get exactly the comfort you prefer.

When you're about to invest in a sofa bed, it's a good idea to find out all you can before laying down your money so you can get one that's as comfortable and convenient as your budget can manage. Of course, you can always buy a cheap and uncomfortable one if you'd prefer the relatives didn't stay! When you start thinking about sofa bed shopping, it's often because the need for one is arriving imminently! Let us take the work out of choosing by giving you a rundown of the options available. A bi-fold will be more comfortable because it has fewer folds, meaning it allows a thicker mattress. They're also a little easier to set up. We reckon a bi-fold is the way to go. Hardwood is more expensive than pine, and "kiln dried" hardwood means moisture has been removed, minimising future warping – although, as a rough guide, this will add at least $500 to the price of the sofa bed.
However, whether it's kiln dried or not, a hardwood frame should last a lifetime as long as it's well constructed. Test the mechanism in the shop, both pulling out the bed frame and pushing it back in. If it's too hard, keep looking, but bear in mind it can get easier once you get the knack and the joints loosen up. Check the padding by kneading the frame along the back rails and arms, as hard or sharp edges indicate skimpy padding which is best avoided – it will last a shorter time and will be uncomfortable when you're sitting in the sofa position. Your choice of fabric can substantially alter the price of a sofa bed. But unfortunately, the cost of fabric isn't a reliable guide to its quality. For example, big retailers can keep prices down on popular fabrics due to mass-production and buying power, whereas more expensive fabrics may have racked up their costs due to lower production rates and consequent loss of economies of scale. Also, some commercial-grade fabrics (for use in cinemas or offices, say) can be tough but cheap, while more expensive ones may be fairly delicate.
As a guide to quality, when you're in the shop ask for fabric samples or swatches, so you can give the fabric a better appraisal than you could by just looking at the finished product. Come home to clean floors with a robot vacuum cleaner that's up to the job. We compare models from iRobot, Samsung and more in our to find the best. A common complaint with sofa beds is that you can feel the support bars through the mattress. To avoid this, test them in the shop first – your guests will thank you! Different types of mattress to consider include inner-spring, foam, futons and inflatables. Foam sofa beds range from very basic and cheap, to memory-foam models costing well over $1000. With the basic models, their price is their main advantage; they might not be the most comfortable, but are reasonably long-lasting and can be a great option for kids. If you regularly have guests and want to give them the royal treatment, a more expensive memory foam sofa bed could be worth investigating.
Inner-spring mattresses are generally more comfortable than basic foam mattress, and aren't necessarily much more expensive. Rotate the mattress periodically to prolong its life. You can add a "topper" to make a mattress thicker, but you'll have to store it somewhere. Futons can be an inexpensive and long-lasting sofa bed option, but are fairly firm so they might be best for guests who prefer sleeping on a firm bed. Turn the futon over and air it regularly to keep it in good shape. There are also inflatable sofa beds, which are basically sofa bed versions of an air mattress. They're not necessarily a good option for daily use as a sofa as they probably won't last, but they're a cheap and portable option for when guests turn up, and they offer more functionality than a basic air mattress. They are generally easy to deflate and pack away afterwards. Loose polyester fibre fill looks plump and luxurious at first, but the contents can settle and redistribute themselves – better-quality cushions have walled compartments to keep the fibre in place.
Feathers (or a feather-and-down mix) are another option and, while they need attention in terms of plumping and fluffing, longevity isn't as much of a problem in back cushions as in seat cushions. Are the cushions reversible? You'll get more life out of them if you can flip them (check the piping allows this), or at least swap them from side to side. The warranty on the cushions gives an indication of the quality of the foam. Feather-filled cushions are more susceptible to damage than foam or a foam/feather combination. Cushions with feathers in them may have shorter warranties. 1 - 25 of 40 ads for "single fold out bed" within BedsBENDIGO KING SINGLE 3 PIECE BEDROOM SUITE - BLACKWOOD FIND A LOWER PRICE?
