[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have a guest room that is rarely used by guests.  My mother comes once or twice a year and has a bad back.  We have a comfortable queen sized bed in there for her.

Our teenager's bed has reached it's last legs.  It's an old bed and the mattress is sagging.

I don't want to spend $1K or more on a new bed for teenager's room, but she needs something comfortable because every night she's been sleeping in the guest room.  She loves that bed.

Question is - I'm thinking of moving the guest room bed into the teen's room and making the guest room more functional (for Zoom calls, meditation, TV, etc.).  I'm afraid if I get a sleep sofa though, my mother won't be able to sleep on it.  Is there such a thing as a very comfortable sleep sofa or should I scrap the plan and just get my daughter a new bed?[/quote]

OMG

Just buy your kid a new bed.  What's wrong with you?  [/quote]

LOL!!!!  Kid loves the guest room bed and is sleeping on that every night.  She's Autistic.  When she finds something she likes, she likes it.  We thought this is a good opportunity to make the guest room more functional.  What is wrong with ME?????  [/quote]

The point is to prioritize your child, who lives here 100% of the time. So nobody cares where she sleeps, as long as you're not confining her to a crappy bed just because (insert weird reason here). 
You could transform the guest room into a study, and when your mother visits, have her sleep in a quality bed and you or your child sleep on the couch, or air mattress, or whatever. Or you could buy a new, comfortable bed (they are NEVER a waste of money!), and keep the guest room as a bedroom.

But the main point is not to deny your child a comfortable bed.
