Leather sofa bed advice, please

JerzyBulovski

I may have posted this in the wrong place somewhere else on the forum but this seems more appropriate?!

Hi,

Just would like some advice. We'd like to buy a leather sofa bed and would like to pay up to about 900 quid.

We've seen one we like in furniture village but I've done a bit of research and found a lot of negative reviews for this company. We've also seen a Alvros one in Ikea that looks alright.

Edit: We'd like a 2.5 or 3 seater with a decent mattres. Some of the ones we've seen have had really thin, poor mattresses or weak looking internals but the FV one looked quite robust.

Trouble is, I don't mind paying a bit extra for one that is going to last a long time. The last leather sofa we purchased we've been a bit disappointed with.

Can anyone recommend a decent sofa-bed seller or comment on the items mentioned above, please?

Thanks.
Jerzy

In my experience it is almost impossible to find a decent mattress in a sofa bed. Mainly because what decent mattress would fold up neatly? You might be looking for something that doesn't exist.
When I've used sofa beds I find the best ones don't have mattresses the back simply folds down. But you don't get leather versions of those unfortunately. You can however get leather sofas with ottomans that you push up to the sofa. But these aren't very space-efficient.
