SofaBed Mattress is Horrible

We have company coming with us camping, so someone will be sleeping on the Hide_a_Bed. Not so comfy, can feel the bars through the mattress provided.
Measurements are 61 Wide and 69 1/2 Long.
Any ideas what to replace it with? I've done multiple searches and have not found a mattress with these measurements, and not wanting to spend Big Bucks on a custom made mattress.
Any Ideas welcome,

I'm sure someone has had the same problem

  • Mainer Bob,
    Did you use the memory foam topper on top of the existing mattress or do you mean that you bought a memory foam mattress?
  • My mother, bless her heart, had a theory. The theory was that the beds were made bad on the sofabeds, so company wouldn't stay more than 3 nights. :) :)

    We had one in our guest room. We went to Home Depot and had them cut a sheet of plywood into length and half the width (2 of them).....and put them under the mattress. Then we put a memory foam on top. :) my guests said it was comfortable. LOL and yes, they stayed longer than 3 days.
  • We had the same problem and bought a memory foam topper at Walmart. It worked out quite well. It made it a bit difficult to refold the bed, which is built for the thin mattress. You may need to cut it down to fit. Measure carefully when you go shopping a get a size that is larger than you need. Good luck.
