Question:

Is beddinge sofa bed from ikea easy to break?

They seem very comfortable, but those thin wooden slats and those soft plastic hinges that keep them together don't inspire much trust. Is this a sofa bed only for occasional sleeping and not recommended for other activities(wink)?

Answer:

You'll smash straight through it as it is quite cheap nasty. Use the floor.
It's okay, not great, though. Very firm, so if you like that, good. I would not suggest it for someone who is overweight or has a bad back -- and certainly not for long-term. IKEA's Sultan mattresses are relatively inexpensive, and pretty good, if you're looking for a cheap bedding solution. I wouldn't look at the BEDDINGE as a long-term, every-night bed, though.
A friend of mine had an IKEA sofa with cheap slats like you describe that broke when a larger person (about 250 lbs) sat on it. On the other hand, I have an IKEA bed with much stronger slats that was built like a tank and will probably last forever. Bottom line - if it looks too wimpy to do the job it probably is.
