Comfort of pull out sofa bed

Probably not very...

It depends on the design, but generally they are not the best. The cabover bunk is very likely more comfortable, assuming you have one. I would be surprised if there were a class C made with no rear bed and no cabover bunk, but I've been surprised in the past.

In my motorhome, I'd rate the rear bed as the mosts comfortable--particularly after the addition of a memory foam mattress topper for the rather lumpy and pokey mattress--followed by the cabover bunk, the dinette bed, and then the jackknife couch, which operates much like a futon. The dinette rates higher than the couch mainly because it's a bit longer, and the couch is entirely too short for me. Both are about one and a half persons wide, the dinette maybe a bit wider.

You should be able to unfurl it and try it out at least quickly when looking at the unit. Besides the width and length, pay attention to how lumpy or not it is, and to whether or not there are any big seams between cushions.

How comfortable is the pull out couch for two adults?

I suppose that totally depends on the manufacturer and specific model as well as your definition of comfortable. Why don't you just pull out the bed, lay on it, and decide for yourself?

I have never slept on a good one at anyone's house much less in an RV. The typical ones in an RV are too small and have cheap mattrasses. It is okay for a guest for a night or two, but do not plan on using them as your regular sleeping arrangement.

The original owner of my Itasca Cambria replaced the dinette with an electric/sofa bed. It was an expensive unit costing thousands manufactured by Winnebago. I believe they called it an easy glide or something. Well out that came and a new dinette in it's place. It was very uncomfortable. Even the new dinette I had made and in the sleeper position is uncomfortable.
Pull outs are for kids in my opinion or folks with good spinal curves. They should have a warning to not be used by anyone over 40.
I say rent one, spend a weekend and then decide or sleep on the floor in your house using the couch cushions.

The jack knife couch isn't bad at all. If it is the folded-up coach bed, the floor might be better.

Comfortable pull out sofa bed = oxymoron

FYI: A class C by definition has the over cab bed but many are not rated for adults size people, so check it out the weight rating.

Jack-knife couches aren't that bad. We had one on our first boat but they tend to be narrow so not so great for a couple.

We are considering purchasing a 20 foot class c that doesn’t have a rear bed. How comfortable is the pull out couch for two adults? Any info would help! Thanks

Our former Class C (to some a B+ with no overhead bunk area but, according to RIVA Definitions, a Class C on a cut-away chassis-the confusion comes from a cab-over area or not and a B being built on a completed van body), a Winnebago Aspect 23D, had a jack-knife couch which was the only sleeping area in that motorhome. As has already been mentioned, it was narrow for the two of us but, it worked. We added a memory foam topper that added considerably to it's comfort. It was doable for us for over 10 years but, a compromise no doubt.

We purchased a used 24' with a pullout bed thinking that it would work out OK. The couch pulled out to almost a full size bed that went all the way to the dinette. Naturally the slideout had to be out use the bed. The bed was so uncomfortable with nothing but a 2" mattress that we could feel the springs underneath. We had many enjoyable trips with me sleeping over the cab and my wife on the dinette. Make sure you pull out the bed and try it before buying.

Ours is short in a 22 Gulfstream fits a 5'10 OK. I sleep better unfolded as the sections back and seat have different firmness.
