IKEA sofa-beds: Beddinge, Himmene, Lycksele - any good?

Hello, we need a reasonably comfortable sofabed for our loft. Comfortable as a bed that is - it won't be used very often as a sofa.

Looking at these three from IKEA - any reviews appreciated:

BEDDINGE LÖVÅS & LYCKSELE LÖVÅS are good to sleep on, not too comfort to use as sofa.

No comment on HIMMENE

I've got a Beddinge I bought in 2003 with a sprung mattress - it looks like they don't offer that anymore though. It was the main sofa in my flat for 9 years, and makes a very comfortable bed. It's very easy to put up and down. I would recommend it, but you do need some nice big cushions at the back to make it a comfortable sofa as it is deep back to front.

We have the lycksele (with the upgraded mattress) and it's much more comfortable than a very expensive sofa bed my inlaws bought for when we stay.
I previously had a much older version of this at home after I left for uni and it lasted a fair time for me for all uni holidays etc before eventually dying. But it was always comfy as a bed. It's easy to put up and down, and it's good for storing the bedding under when it's folded up.
My parents replaced the dead one with a Beddinge, but I'm not sure many people have slept on it as it's in a different room. But it's seemed comfy enough if I recall.
Both of these arn't very comfortable as a sofa! They're quite hard.

Thanks all. Yes they seemed to have removed the option to choose a mattress - they all now come with foam mattresses.

LYCKSELE has 3 option of foam mattress.
LÖVÅS, MURBO & HÅVET

We only purchased the Lyksele with a more expensive foam mattress (rather than the cheaper one) in May so I'd be surprised if they'd removed that option.

Ah OK I see, there are three Lycksele sofabeds - separate products. I was looking for a mattress selection option in Lycksele Lovas product page.

Is the Havet mattress like memory foam then?
