Hide-a-bed/couch replacement?

The easy question is: Has anyone replaced there couch/hide a bed with something that your able to sleep on? Sometimes 2 people in a one bed trailer is one to many passengers, especially if someone is having a very restless night or snoring as an example. Plus that thing that's in there they call a hide-a-bed is exactly what should happen to it, hide it forever. So what I'm looking for are examples of something to replace the factory couch with that'll fit through the door, and be descent to sleep on.

In the RV world there is the trifold sofa. We had in our Zinger ZT260BH. I slept on it a few times. It was a queen size bed that folded flat. Our current KZ Durango has a double version of it. Again, it folded flat.

I replaced my jackknife couch with a pair of powered recliners from RecPro. I have a problem staying awake when I sit in one and recline it all the way back.

We went to an inflatable mattress, or you could even do a couple. Cheap, easy, light weight, and for as often as we had extra folks sleep in, a good alternative.

We replaced our trifold with a rec pro double recliner. Our living area has just enough room for a queen size inflatable mattress. This spring our daughter and son in law slept on it a couple of nights and it worked out great! If you don't have extra guests all the time, I would recommend the inflatable. You can store it easy and that allows you to get something more comfortable to sit in and relax.

Our couch/sleeper broke down and we replaced it with a futon from Amazon just for occasional guests. We won't spend the money for rv furniture. Hope this helps

Vans are often equipped with rather uncomfortable sleeping places with inexpensive mattresses. Over the years, my back has become increasingly sensitive, so I replaced the old beds with orthopedic beds and bought new blankets. Unfortunately, there are no uniform criteria for comfortable furniture. You have to choose something for yourself. In the house's living room, I also bought a new sofa on smartsofas.co.uk. A friend recommended this store to me because he bought several chairs there. I want to get into the van, but I'm afraid there's not enough room.
