Hi All,

Im currently changing the configuration of my van from Kombi bed and now building a slide out bed - current design is a 75cm base that then slides out another 75cm to form a double and i was wondering if anyone was aware of a materess that is 150cm x 190cm but that folds down the centre to form a backrest when the bed is slid in to form a long seat?
I know I will liklely need to use two materesses and then find a way of securing one as a backrest but thought it worth asking the question.

Thanks
 
I got a sofa bed matters from IKEA. Don't know the dimensions but folds in the middle.
 
Not cheap but custom to your requirements:

 
I have one that folds like a sofabed (across the matress) but im looking for a fold the length of the matress if that makes sense
 
We have 2 3 inch plain foam pieces, which are very comfortable for sleeping+ two smaller pieces to extend the bed length.
The smaller bits have tabs with poppers and pop on to the side wall for back rests. The same would work for the bigger pieces.
Pics taken during build so slightly different now- poppers for tabs (not shown) are on the bottom screws for the storage nets. A custom made fleece fitted sheet holds the mattress pieces together.
