Worth it for the money
Review of Rachel Metal Action Sofa Bed by sunmeilan

Advantages: Reasonable quality, cheap, easy to clean
Disadvantages: Dips in the middle, looks like it is cheap

Moving from a studio flat in London into a three-bedroomed house that was half the price in another part of the country was all very well, but apart from a few basic bits and pieces, I had to furnish most of the rooms. I managed to pick up most of my furniture second-hand, but decided to buy a new sofa bed so that friends don't have to sleep on the floor when they visit. Being on a tight budget, I did a lot of Internet research before finally deciding ...
...Why Argos? I have bought a number of items on the Internet from Argos in the past, and have always been very pleased with them. I also hate traipsing around shops and although I knew I was taking a risk by buying online without being able to judge the shape, size and colour myself, I still thought it was worth it for a hassle-free purchase. I did carefully measure my doorways to ensure that the sofa bed would fit through before I pressed the final ... Read review

Cheap and comfy
Review of Futons Direct by chemistangel

Advantages: Versatile and within most budgets
Disadvantages: Possibly unsuitable for some as they are low to the ground

...Most places that sell futons now sell removable mattress covers, which are excellent, you can wash them as often as you like. Really they just act as an extra layer of protection for the mattress. I have to admit I’d only heard of a couple of people who had actually bought them in the past and they all complained that they were a bit hard and a lot more hassle than they were worth. Yes it is firm, but it’s a comfy firm, not uncomfortable. ...
...problems. The mattress part of the futon does need quite a lot of care. Once a week or so you will need to turn your mattress, as on a normal bed. But unlike normal beds because it is all cotton your body shape will get pressed into the bed. It takes two people to give the bed a good shake so this doesn’t happen, otherwise it might get uncomfortable if you move position in the night or if someone else sleeps in your bed. I’m pleased ...

FUTON? Who wants to sleep on an old pallet? .
Review of Futon Company collection by smudgeybabes

Advantages: Chic? Maybe?
Disadvantages: Can't be good for your err "social life" nudge nudge! wink wink!

...According to Wilkpedia, a futon is a type of mattress that makes up a Japanese bed. They are sold in Japan at specialty stores called futon-ya as well as at department stores. Japanese futons are flat, about 5 cm (2 in) thick with a fabric exterior stuffed with cotton or synthetic batting. They are often sold in sets which include the futon mattress (shikibuton), a comforter (kakebuton) or blanket (mōfu), a summer blanket resembling a large ...

I should have sued the wotsits off them
Review of Courts collection by daveops

Advantages: Decent range of furniture
Disadvantages: Extraordinary inability to get anything right

Courts have recently started advertising on telly again. A store I have not used for 3 years. Here is why. My son was 2 and was old enough to get out of his cot. We needed new furniture for his bedroom and Courts certainly had a good choice. They also had an interest free credit deal (one of those where if you do not repay in full within 9 months you get charged a backdated 29.8% APR) and the furniture itself seemed to be 70% off! Well, while a little ...
...acknowledgement of my letter to Courts was received. 2 telephone calls and 3 follow up letters later; I received a muted apology and a cheque for £50. As you can imagine, I was not considering this a victory, as we were now 4 months after the original order being placed and I personally thought the claim for £50 refund to be more than justified. But, I had my money. So toddled off to the bank to deposit the cheque and made a mental note that large ... Read review

To futon or not to futon...
Review of Futons Direct by GraingerN

Advantages: dual use, easy to store, easy to use
Disadvantages: mattress is hard to sit on and heavy to move

Available in a wide range of trendy styles the futon is definitely a state of the art fashion accessory to any household, although I would say that, I own one. You can choose from various frame styles with wood or metal being the two main components and then also mix'n'match with further choices in the mattress range. They come with complete instructions on how to put them together, however, do not underestimate the weight of the mattress! yay how ...
...it off to clean in the crevices and turn it over in a flash - forget it, just stick the hoover nossle in. Although the mattress is the part that mainly fits in with your decor as the colours they are available in are endless, I find to sit on, without a doubt give it half an hour you too will suffer with 'numb bum syndrome'. Although they look good I find that to use as an every day settee it's not the most comfortable option, but liveable if you ... Read review
