Sleeper sofas are harder to sleep on than airbeds. There's a bar that goes though for "support" that will just cut right through your back. Maybe the airbed placed on top of the sleeper sofa mattress would work out.
Just as an aside, I slept on an airbed for a year. With my girlfriend (it was her airbed)--until we finally came up with the money to buy a mattress. Not the "box spring"--just the mattress.
Most "foundations" no longer contain springs, they're just a box.
I have to disagree. I've slept on one for almost two years - most comfortable bed I've ever slept on, and I'm over 50.
I got one of the high ones from Walmart, added a memory foam topper and it is heavenly. The trick is to keep it blown up to firm (if that is what you like).
Also, the one's from Walmart are rounded at the edges, so, standard fitted bed sheets don't fit unless you go up a size.
Yeah, but I wouldn't make my parents sleep on one for four weeks, even if it was comfortable. They should sleep on it and give them a proper bed.
We have a queen size air mattress. I personally don't like sleeping on them. I also bought a memory foam mattress topper to go on top. That makes it much more comfortable to sleep on. I have only known a few people who don't mind sleeping on them.
Way to go! The best hospitality you can ever give your folks is to give them your bedroom and crash the sofa/pullout. After all their are your aging folks. Airbed shouldn't be your option unless you are indirectly warning them not return again then yeah you pick one at walmart!!
People really appreciate this and I feel so much better knowing my guests are very comfortable. If I can't offer a real guest bedroom, I would rather deal with the crappy pullout
We have a Sleep Number Bed which is a modified air mattress. Best bed we ever slept on.
The Mrs and I have a Tempurpedic and love it. This is our second one only becuase we went from a Queen to a King ,seriously great beds!
