Comfortable sofa-bed?

I’m looking for recommendations for a sofa bed for a spare room.

The room is used mostly as an office, but occasionally we will have friends staying over and I’d like a sofa bed that’s not horrific for people to sleep on, or a complete pain to set up and put away!

I’d be really grateful for recommendations based on experience, and things to look out for.

Thanks!

just get an inflatable airbed- much much more comfortable than a sofa bed

Heard good things about Swyft and Furl.

I know you asked for comfortable sofa bed recommendations but we have tried a few over the years and this is our best solution for our office / spare bedroom - not this one but a similar one like it (ours was from John Lewis but I don’t think they sell it any more)

The bed underneath comes out to be positioned exactly next to the other one so it’s a full large double when up, and the mattresses can zip together. It’s exactly as comfy as a normal bed but space saving and we just use it as a place to sit with cushions on (or tbf sort piles of laundry). If 2 people are staying we can open it out for a large double, and if it’s just one person we might leave it as a narrow single (depending on the person). I’ve slept on ours plenty and it’s great.

We bought an ex-display Loaf one and I really like it (have slept on it myself). It’s a proper mattress and very easy to set up.

Ok my links are going weird for me but just google this sort of thing:

I concur with @Talipesmum; a trundle bed is the way to go in a bedroom, where it doesn't have to look like a sofa.
We have one in the smallest bedroom come study, from M&S.
It becomes a very comfortable super-king sized bed when required.

We have the futon company oak one, it’s v comfortable. They are expensive but I got mine on gumtree!

Thanks, everyone, that's all really useful. I definitely want something that is a functional sofa when it's not being a bed, so I have plenty of options to try now!
