Any recommendations who to try for sofabeds (and futons). Have relatives coming to stay in the summer. Live in Bangor but will travel for a good deal!

Thanks :)

    Thanks for that suggestion, just looked on gumtree.
    The ones there at present are ok but mostly for spare rooms.
    Hoping to find a nice new one at a decent price as will probably be part of the furniture in my dining room. :)

    Ebay is always good. Sofas are so large that by the time you've hired a van it puts the costup. I recently bought a sofa for £10 it is like new and it wan't cheap when new. It did cost me £40 to get it delivered but £50 for a sofa isn't bad.

    We bought 2 single futons from Argos for our grandchildren for when they come to visit. I think they were about £70 each.

    Pine wood and black cushions, my daughter has them in her conservatory among some very modern furniture and they look great.
    We 'borrow' them back again when the girls visit us.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.
