I tried sleeping on the fold out couch. The bar in the bed was uncomfortable, I bought a piece of foam to lay over top, but storing was a problem. I thought about a blow up mattress but passed. It is just me and the wife but wanted a comfortable other bed. Which I think I will use, as she likes the bedroom cold and a fan blowing. So now we will have the ability to sleep separately if we choose too, or room for one.
I removed the fold out couch and built a 2x6 frame on the floor and topped it with 1/2 plywood. That gave it a height of 6 inches, the mattress is 14 inches. So it can be used for seating or sleeping. I used a twin extra long mattress, 38X80 inches. I removed one end table. The 38-inch wide mattress will hit the slide outs on one end when closing. So I installed some flush d-rings in the 1/2 inch plywood and 2 hooks above on the cabinets, So I can stand up mattress when traveling.
