Sofa Bed Mattresses

Measure the length, width, and thickness of the existing mattress or bed frame. Include any cut-out sections, rounded corners, or unusual shapes. Note the maximum thickness that allows the bed to fold properly. Take measurements in centimetres for accuracy. Photos of the bed frame help identify any special requirements.

Most sofa beds accommodate mattresses between 10-15cm thick. Check the folding mechanism clearance before ordering. Thicker mattresses provide better comfort but may prevent proper folding. Measure the gap between the frame and any overhead components when the bed is extended to determine maximum thickness.

Memory foam, reflex foam, and pocket springs all work well. Memory foam moulds to body shape and compresses easily for folding. Reflex foam provides firm support and durability. Pocket springs offer traditional comfort but add weight. All materials must meet BS 7177 fire safety standards for insurance compliance.

Lead times typically range from 7-14 working days depending on seasonal demand and current production capacity. Rush orders may be available for urgent requirements. Free UK delivery is standard. Delivery date confirmation comes with the order acknowledgement once measurements are processed.

Yes, guarantees up to 10 years are available depending on the mattress type and materials chosen. Memory foam typically carries 5-10 year guarantees, while reflex foam offers 3-5 years. Pocket spring mattresses usually include 5-8 year guarantees. Terms cover manufacturing defects and premature wear under normal use.

Yes, options include hypoallergenic materials, extra firm or soft comfort levels, and waterproof covers. Zip-off washable covers are available for easy maintenance. Some mattresses can include cooling gel layers or natural latex. All additions maintain the custom sizing and fire safety certification requirements.

Sofa bed mattresses are specifically designed for folding mechanisms and space constraints. They're typically thinner than regular mattresses but engineered for durability under repeated folding. The foam density and spring systems are optimised for both sleeping comfort and mechanical stress from daily conversion between sofa and bed positions.
