Sofa chair vs inflatable bed.

Futons are more trendy these days.

Look at folding beds or camp beds: Far less work than pumping up an air bed every night.

Plenty of electric pumps now.

There are multiple pictures on the "detail" page for each product. It shows the soft-bed-chair in the chair position and the bed position.

It seems it's a matter of which armchair you look at! By bad luck I chose armchairs which don't do that. See "Abbey chair" bottom left of page 2, "Arlete reclining chair bed" bottom right of page 3. Also, if you click on the product name on the selection page rather than the picture, it goes to a detailed information page of that chair, but it only has the chair position shown (eg open the "Arles chair bed" details by clicking on the name at the top of page 2, or even the Kiara bed you linked to below).

That's the problem with ordering a bed over the internet!

Run a fan, blowing the warm air, to the colder side.

I suspect it is radiated warmth from the building structure, rather than warm air.

I would sleep in a very cold room. Electric under blankets are cheap and economical to run. With suitable duvet and covers, why do you need it to be warm? I actually like a warm bed in a cold room.

But, I didn't think high rise flats got cold.

To avoid having a cold nose.

I don't experience that. How cold are we talking?

Too cold for me to want to get out and find a thermometer :-)

I am ok with sleeping in a cold room. Just not a freezing one. And we are not even in winter yet.

Having to find the motivation to get up from your bed instead of daydreaming about topping yourself when it's cold as f*ck doesn't work if you have a history of psychotic depression.

Pancho:

If there is an electrical outlet, you have options.

An electric blanket is better than nothing, as an example.

It doesn't use nearly as much electricity, as a baseboard electrical heater which is heating the entire room.

Try IKEA.

They do more numerous sofa beds etc. Plus they deliver.

We have an IKEA folding futon thing in one of our spare rooms which doubles as Senior Managements sewing room.

It is comfortable to sit on. I’ve never slept on it but daughters have and tell us it is comfortable. It isn’t that easy to fold out but do able.

Yes, OK as long as you do not have any back issues. Some people find them a bit low to get up from.

Is there nothing which can be done about the cold wall, as its obviously the problem area. When they redid some council flats around here, they put insulation on the inside of the outside walls and put some kind of cladding on the outside. Brian
