Materials & Construction Features

Every sofa bed at Mattress Depot is engineered in our UK factory using ethically sourced, high-performance materials.

  • The Support Core: We utilize high-density reflex foam or individual pocket springs. Our pocket sprung sofa bed options provide localized support, meaning two sleepers won't roll together in the center.
  • Comfort Layers: We incorporate reflex foam and cooling layers to ensure the sleeping surface doesn't over-heat, which is a common issue with lower-quality folding beds.
  • Fire Retardant Covers: Hygiene and safety are paramount. Our covers are BS7177 compliant and crafted from durable, easy-clean fabrics designed for the rigors of dual-purpose furniture.
  • Manufacturing Standards: Being UK made, our construction process involves rigorous quality checks that exceed standard retail requirements.

How to Care for Your Sofa Bed

  • Initial Setup & Airing: Once your sofa bed arrives, unpack it in a well-ventilated room and allow it to sit for a few hours to reach its full loft and dissipate any "new foam" scent.
  • Regular Mechanism Checks: Open and close the bed mechanism once a month to ensure moving parts remain smooth and clear of any obstructions.
  • Folding Technique: Always ensure all bedding and pillows are removed before folding the unit back into a sofa to prevent straining the frame or compressing the reflex foam sofa bed core.
  • Spot Cleaning: For fabric covers, use a damp cloth with mild upholstery cleaner immediately after any spills; avoid soaking the internal orthopaedic sofa bed mattress.
  • Rotation: If the sleeping surface is used frequently, rotate it 180 degrees every few months to ensure even wear across the foam or spring layers.
