Recommend a pull out double bed

Faith

On very rare occasions, we may need an extra double bed to sleep guests. We don't want to commit to getting a full bed because it takes up valuable space and we'd rather have some flexibility. But many pull out beds are bloody tiny - single in many cases, or less than 4 foot. We'd need it to sleep two adults comfortably. Can anyone recommend something from their experience?

I recommend a pull down bed, such as the following as good as any standard bed and doesn't take up any more space than a press

We looked at those, but they cost upwards of €2000 from what I can see, particularly once you factor in installation. For something that might get used 4 nights a year, we're looking for a significantly cheaper option!

In a similar situation, just wondering if you found anything suitable that you would recommend?

IKEA Friheten or similar an option? We have a Friheten that sees use as a double bed 5/6 times a year that has stood us well. Avoid the leatherette version.

We went with the Ikea Brimnes in the end. It's a decent size when pulled out, but a neat single otherwise. We went for the one without the frame and we're really happy with it. Cost about €500 I think.
