JAY-BE Crown Premier Folding Bed with Mattress, Single

Excellent. Bought for a family member who has recently had operation requiring sleeping on ground floor for some weeks. He's 6'1" and this bed has suited his needs with a great level of comfort. Bed is easy to operate, wheels make it easy work to store away during the day. No assembly besides adding head board required but to date I've not added it yet as it meets our needs without it for now. Spring mattress is comfortable-stable but bouncy and I'm pleased with mattress depth. Bed is quite low but as expected for an occasional bed. I've since purchased the JAY be cover for storage to keep it clean as well as adding a mattress protector. It's absolutely been a great purchase so far. Delivery men were happy to place in room of choice and unpackage but this wasn't required. I'll update my review when family member has recovered but after 8 days of use, the quality of sleep is so far very good. Worth the money at this stage-very good bed, well made, easy to use and fold up.

October 2019 - bed still in good working order and still in daily use! **************************************** 7th May 2019 - bed still folds perfectly, mattress in same condition as when purchased and its used daily - really excellent buy. ***************************************** 15th January 2019, bed will be 2 years in February - used daily and still in perfect working order, mattress is as good as when I bought it. *************************************** Just a quick update, I have had this bed for a year now and it’s in use daily. The bed still folds with ease and the mattress still comfortable. Despite being folded in the middle when sleeping you can’t feel where it’s been folded. This bed is still excellent after a full year of use, I have noticed that some people say the mattress is squashy and not like an ordinary mattress, this is true it is squashy but I think that’s what gives it durability. Still very happy with purchase. ******* Below is my original review, thought I would just do a very quick update - I have had the bed 6 months , it's being used every day and I still give it 5 stars - more if possible. After 6 months of continuous use the mattress is perfect, comfortable and showing no signs of sagging. The bed still unfolds with ease - excellent bed. ****** This bed is brilliant!! I have another Jay-Be folding bed with a thin pocket sprung mattress and wooden slatted base which to be honest wasn't the best buy. It felt unstable and after a couple nights was really uncomfortable. That type of folding bed is for occasional use and in my opinion was even any good for that. I needed a good quality folding bed with a better build and COMFORTABLE! I wasn't keen on buying from Jay-Be again but after searching on the internet for what seemed far too long I realised that Jay-Be was probably my only real option. This Crown bed is for contract use which meets a different level of standard - hence the price. I spent ages looking at reviews and pictures, the thicker mattress looked good but was worried it might be permanently buckled in the middle from the folding. Eventually I bought it and what a buy, so happy I took the plunge. The build is strong, no creaky legs and movement. The mattress is comfortable!!! The base is sprung, almost like a trampoline (but not bouncy) which supports the mattress and aids all round comfort. It feels like an ordinary bed, you can sit against the headboard and read without feeling like it'll collapse, the mattress doesn't show any signs of folding when you open it out -how? - who knows! I hope this all will stand the test of time as I use this bed as suggested by Jay-Be on a regular basis. I honestly can't get over that fact that it just feels like an standard bed when sleeping. Very Very happy. My only niggles and this would be a suggestion to Jay-Be and not the actual quality of bed is the castors are 360 so although this should give more movability it generally causes it to wobble and 'go off' in it's own direction rather than where I aim it - also for the price it would be so good if it was supplied with a cover, as a contract bed I'm sure hotels etc probably get a deal so it would be nice to have had it supplied. Other than that a fantastic folding bed. If anything changes I will update review. ————— April 2020, still in great working order, mattress perfect and folds with no problems ————— January 2023 Still fine, mattress is feeling a bit used but the bed folds perfectly and I just use a mattress topper.

Needed a small bed for a tiny box room and a folding bed seemed ideal. It's easy to fold and unfold. The mattress is quite comfortable and thick. The base metal makes sound everytime you make even slight contact. Makes no sound when you are actually on bed. It's lower than a standard bed. The mattress has slight dip in middle obviously due to needs of folding. Comes fill assembled and not too heavy. Seems fairly secure and well made. If you're looking for a folding bed with comfortable thick mattress it should be ideal. This bed has a small headboard. The reason gave 4 stars because it is expensive. I have used it while I'm having my house decorated and I quite like it and have no issue with the bed itself. *UPDATE* After having bed for about 2 months and occasional use I find the following issues. One being the bed makes metal banging noise with slight or brush against. However this does not happen when using the bed. The second concern is the bobbling of mattress even though i have use a high quality bed sheet. You can also feel the spring protruding slightly in areas of use.

This bed is the king of guest beds. You get what you pay for and this bed is worth every penny and more. I've slept on it solidly for a week now and it is as comfortable as a regular bed, if not better. In fact I've rarely slept better. The construction is robust and solid. Excellent folding mechanism. The sides glide down effortlessly into place, and spring up again, smooth and feather-light. I was astonished to see such a thick mattress stow folded in half so easily then open flat and assume a plump shape without a hint of a crumple or dip. The wheels are good quality and of a gauge appropriate to the weight of the folded unit. It moves around very nicely. Moving/ erecting and stowing are all a one-person task. The headboard fixes easily and with only three screw fittings is sturdy enough for a man to sit up against without give. We had a problem with this delivery at the Amazon end. Regrettably they declined to rectify the issue. As a long shot I contacted Jay-Be beds UK direct, and they could not have been more helpful. Considering we did not purchase the bed from them directly, we were blown away by their attention to detail and generosity. A Class A company with faultless customer service and a top quality product. Invest in this item with confidence.

Not cheap but still a sensible price for a very solidly made frame with a proper sprung base and comfortable mattress. The bed comes with a simple slip-on cloth cover which goes over it when in the folded position and the headboard makes a useful surface, rather like a tall table, so if the folded bed is stored in the corner of a room you can still make use of it to stand things on. I have two of these beds and the second one arrived with a distorted frame so it would not stand up properly when folded and the castors did not function as they should. I telephoned Jay-Be customer services directly and got ready for an argument but instead they were absolutely delightful and helpful to deal with. As there was nothing wrong with the mattress they arranged for a replacement frame to be sent by courier and for the faulty one to be collected. So well done Jay-Be, a good product and excellent customer services. Incidentally, I weigh over 20 stone and 6ft tall but having given up my own bed for a couple of nights when we had guests I found this folding Jay-Be bed very comfortable, not like the blow up mattress alternative which was horrendous! I did look at the other, cheaper, folding beds in the Jay-Be range but they were much lighter and nothing like as well made and strong as this one. This is a "proper" bed with a "proper" mattress.

I use my spare room as a craft room. That becomes a problem when my Son or Sister comes to stay. I've bought cheap z beds and found them cumbersome to pack away. Also they are not comfortable. Th Jay B Crown bed is a completely different story. Its easy to fold. Has a solid headboard that I can use as a shelf when the bed isn't needed. As for sleeping on it. It's great. It's stabe. Easy to assemble, and my guests say they have a great night's sleep. This lightweight, but sturdy bed fantastic. I am so pleased with this purchase. It was worth every penny. Highly recommended.

What joy. Thrilled to bits with this. My experience of sofabeds is that they give you a poor or fitful nights rest as the mattress is so thin, but this mattress is full depth pocketed springs (18cm/7in) deep and feels just like a normal bed. I have slept on this every night for several months and wake refreshed. The mattress is a bit narrower than a normal bed, but perfectly ok. It's quite heavy, so on arrival, I cut the cardboard box away from it and rolled it out. Assembly is easy - three bolts to fit the headboard with the supplied hex key. When you lower the head end and then the foot end, legs extend beyond the castors to lock it in place, so move the bed where you want it first. The mattress seems quite happy being bent and straightened repeatedly, and appears symmetrical, so you can turn it over or top to bottom to even its wear over time. The supporting net underneath doesn't creak. After nasty experiences of firm mattresses, I find this mattress just right - neither too hard nor too soft, and it's just a pleasure to go to bed! Bear in mind there isn't room for bedding, so you'll need to remove blankets or duvets, though you could leave an undersheet on. When I fold mine away, it sticks out a a little, so I use a length of rope to tie the top together. Also, the castors roll strangely and it doesn't always go in a straight line. I'm so relieved I didn't fall for a sofabed and got this instead. -- Edit, still sleeping on this 9 years later. The mattress is wearing well and remains comfy, the mechanicals seem ok, though the bed creaks more when opening it up and some of the circlips occasionally work loose and have to be pushed back in. Happy nights ...

There are a couple of minor issues that we came across. The Headboard bolts are difficult to align . I would recommend putting the headboard on when the bed is folded. Please note. The headboard can be fitted at either end. The mattress is softer than anticipated also the mattress could do with handles it's fairly heavy. It's all well made and good quality. If your buying this model expect a long wait. It's very comfortable.

zuvor hatten wir ein Billig-Klappbett, auf dem unser Besuch Rückenschmerzen bekam. Mit dem neuen Luxus Klappbett kommt das hoffentlich nicht mehr vor. Die Matratze ist allerdings "amerikanisch weich" und entspricht damit nicht den in Deutschland gewohnten standards harter Matratzen. Insgesamt aber ein durchdachtes Luxusbett, bei dem beim aufklappen sogar die Stützen automatisch ausfahren, so das mann weiter nichts machen muss.
