Where can I get a cheap folding Guest Bed?

Posts: 348 Forumite
Am looking for cheap folding guest bed - but one with at least a 3" mattress, possibly with headboard. Would prefer a real mattress and not an inflatable.
Any suggestions for prices below £35.00 inc p&p
NB. Have tried ebay and get outbid every time upto my limit when taking p&p or pickup mileage into account. Location Oldham.
Thanks in advance.

Ikea.
They also do guest mattresses which will fit under an existing bed - just slide it out.0 -
Not that this answers your question but this is what I use...
A sun lounger... one with a thick padded cushion. I use a double quit folded in half on it for extra padding ... works fine as a guest bed and I use it all summer in the garden for its correct function...0 -
I have an IKEA folding bed for occasional guests and I slept on it myself to check it was OK. Not very wide but even though the mattress isn't very thick, it was pretty comfortable.Marsh Samphire0

Thanks guys for your comments. I had a look at Ikea but didnt see anything suitable.
However after a mammoth search on a search engine
I came up with loot.co.uk and typed in my postcode and the distance willing to travel and found one on sale.
OK it was the other side of Manchester but thought £30 for a sprung guest bed wasnt bad. After viewing and seeing hesitant the vendor dropped the price by £10 so for £20 I have a serviceable guest bed. Costing in the petrol mileage - £5.00 total was £25. So £10 under budget :T
For others searching here is a resume:
Argos value 2-3" mattress on wood slat base £35
Argos value 4" mattress on sprung base £60
Ebay Folding/guest bed(new) 4" mattress £39.00 + (£15 p&p) Buy it now many similar auction sales
Edelledirect Flexi Folding Guest Bed 2" mattress £45 (+£10 p&p)
And onward and upward
Happy bargain hunting.Veteran Bargain Hunter -

FWIW my local Sainsburys (a "Market" one near Victoria) had a small stack of folding guest beds (metal framed, folds in half) for £30 each.
Not sure of the thickness of the matress, but didn't look very padded, so at a guess probably 2" rather than thicker. But possibly worth it as something to store and use as an emergency.

Perhaps Sanya1995, Parkside_Stroller, Cheesy.mike and Marshsaphire would like to give the link to this folding bed because I cant see it on their website.Veteran Bargain Hunter -
