Whilst taking an old sofa bed apart for disposal, it crossed my mind it might make a camper bed, has anyone done this?
If it's of any interest, I couldn't fit the bed frame and mattress in my car to go to the tip so it's still here..

During a moment of weakness I bought a T4 which was advertised as a campervan. The only part of it which was anything like a campervan was a metal frame off a futon welded to the rear arches. It was not a very good set up but I managed to adapt it, and then fitted a caravan interior. I would suggest it's probably not worth the effort but hey ho!

Agree. I messed around for ages with a sofa bed in the early days as the mechanism seemed so impressive. However, they're so over-engineered in comparison to even rock n roll hinges. More trouble than its worth. I wouldn't let my feedback influence you too much though. I love recycling other things. Where theres a will, theres a way.
