Prices by Bed and Mattress By [Cal Hewitt](https://plushpick.com/about/), September 27, 2026 (updated October 11, 2026) lead image, 3:2 **Affiliate disclosure.** If you buy through a link on this page, PlushPick may earn a commission at no extra cost to you.

[How this works](https://plushpick.com/disclosure/) Named sleeper sofas run from $299 for an IKEA FRIDHULT to $4,299.99 for a Room & Board Berin Thin Arm queen-plus on clearance, as listed in October 2026, and the listings between them cluster at $399.99 for a twin loveseat, $899 and $999 for IKEA FRIHETEN, $1,199.99 for a Costco queen and $3,599 for a Room & Board queen. A $299 sleeper and a $3,599 one are different beds, so the price only reads clearly once you know three things about the bed: its size, the mattress type and thickness, and how it opens. Sort by those three and the prices line up. ### Key Takeaways #### The range is $299 to $4,299.99 IKEA FRIDHULT is the low listing and Room & Board's clearance Berin Thin Arm queen-plus is the high one, both as of October 2026. #### Bed size is the first line to read IKEA FRIHETEN lists a 56 3/4 by 78 3/8 inch bed at $899; Room & Board's Natalia lists a 61 by 80 inch mattress from $3,599. #### Thickness varies less than price Costco's Liviana lists a 4.75-inch queen foam mattress at $1,199.99 and the Natalia a 4-inch one at $3,599. #### A mechanism can carry its own warranty American Leather lists 3 years on the Revere mechanism and 5 on the Contract Today Sleeper, apart from the frame. #### Returns span 365 days to final sale IKEA lists 365 days, Wayfair 30, and a Room & Board clearance sleeper is final sale. #### Weight is a doorway question Listed weights run from 170.4 to 277 pounds, and the FRIHETEN ships in two packages of about 226 pounds together. ## What a sleeper sofa costs in each price band The table groups named sleepers by the price on each listing in October 2026. Where a maker prints the bed size or the mattress thickness it is in the table; where the listing leaves one out, that is the number to ask the seller for before you order. Named sleeper sofas by price band, October 2026 | Band | Sleeper | Price | Bed and mattress | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Under $500 | IKEA FRIDHULT, Knisa light gray | $299 | Foam mattress | | Under $500 | Wayfair Latitude Run Orisfur, 57.9 inches | $399.99 sale | Twin, memory foam | | Under $500 | IKEA ÄLVDALEN with chaise, Knisa dark gray | $499 | Ask for bed size and mattress type | | $500 to $1,000 | Wayfair Latitude Run twin pull-out loveseat | $719.99 (one configuration is $489.99 on sale) | Twin, memory foam | | $500 to $1,000 | IKEA FRIHETEN sleeper sofa | $899 | 56 3/4 by 78 3/8 inch bed | | $500 to $1,000 | IKEA FRIHETEN sleeper sectional with storage | $999 | 55 1/8 by 80 3/8 inch bed | | $1,000 to $2,000 | Costco Simon Li Liviana queen | $1,199.99 | Queen, 4.75-inch Serene foam | | $1,000 to $2,000 | IKEA FINNALA sleeper sofa | $1,399 ($1,359 with IKEA Family) | Foam mattress | | Over $2,000 | Room & Board Natalia 72-inch queen | From $3,599 | Queen, 61 by 80 inches, 4-inch foam | | Over $2,000 | Room & Board Oxford 123-inch pop-up queen | $3,299.99 clearance | Queen, 60 by 80 inches | | Over $2,000 | Room & Board Berin Thin Arm 78-inch queen-plus | $4,299.99 clearance | Queen-plus, 66 by 77 inches, 4-inch Serene foam | BandUnder $500 SleeperIKEA FRIDHULT, Knisa light gray Price$299 Bed and mattressFoam mattress BandUnder $500 SleeperWayfair Latitude Run Orisfur, 57.9 inches Price$399.99 sale Bed and mattressTwin, memory foam BandUnder $500 SleeperIKEA ÄLVDALEN with chaise, Knisa dark gray Price$499 Bed and mattressAsk for bed size and mattress type Band$500 to $1,000 SleeperWayfair Latitude Run twin pull-out loveseat Price$719.99 (one configuration is $489.99 on sale) Bed and mattressTwin, memory foam Band$500 to $1,000 SleeperIKEA FRIHETEN sleeper sofa Price$899 Bed and mattress56 3/4 by 78 3/8 inch bed Band$500 to $1,000 SleeperIKEA FRIHETEN sleeper sectional with storage Price$999 Bed and mattress55 1/8 by 80 3/8 inch bed Band$1,000 to $2,000 SleeperCostco Simon Li Liviana queen Price$1,199.99 Bed and mattressQueen, 4.75-inch Serene foam Band$1,000 to $2,000 SleeperIKEA FINNALA sleeper sofa Price$1,399 ($1,359 with IKEA Family) Bed and mattressFoam mattress BandOver $2,000 SleeperRoom & Board Natalia 72-inch queen PriceFrom $3,599 Bed and mattressQueen, 61 by 80 inches, 4-inch foam BandOver $2,000 SleeperRoom & Board Oxford 123-inch pop-up queen Price$3,299.99 clearance Bed and mattressQueen, 60 by 80 inches BandOver $2,000 SleeperRoom & Board Berin Thin Arm 78-inch queen-plus Price$4,299.99 clearance Bed and mattressQueen-plus, 66 by 77 inches, 4-inch Serene foam On [IKEA's sleeper sofa listing](https://www.ikea.com/us/en/cat/sleeper-sofas-10663/?msockid=2e436e4d441e657a0122781c45836479) the models named above run from $299 for the FRIDHULT to $1,949 for the three-seat FINNALA with a chaise, a $1,650 spread inside one catalog. American Leather's Revere Today Sleeper is left out of the table because its [maker page](https://www.americanleather.com/products/revere/) lists a 4-inch high-density foam mattress but no price; ask an authorized retailer for a quote. Read the table as a set of dated listings, not an average: compare the same bed size first, then the mattress. The FRIDHULT's bed measurements are laid out in [the guide to sofa beds under $500](https://plushpick.com/guides/best-sofa-bed-under-500/), and the $500 to $1,000 range has its own picks in [the guide to sleeper sofas under $1,000](https://plushpick.com/guides/best-sleeper-sofa-under-1000/). ## What moves a sleeper from one band to the next The listings show what each step up buys, and the pairs below put a dollar figure on it. **A larger published bed.** IKEA's [FRIDHULT is $299](https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/fridhult-sleeper-sofa-knisa-light-gray-20355764/) with a foam mattress. IKEA's [FRIHETEN is $899](https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/friheten-sleeper-sofa-skiftebo-dark-gray-90341151/?msockid=103d4c80362663e321305ad337ee62cf) and lists a bed of 56 3/4 by 78 3/8 inches, about a full, with a pull-out underframe that you open by removing the back cushions. The $600 gap goes with the bigger bed and the storage-style frame. Neither listing prints a mattress thickness, so ask IKEA for it before ordering. **A price gap with no spec behind it.** Two Wayfair twin memory foam pull-outs, the [Orisfur at $399.99 on sale](https://www.wayfair.com/furniture/pdp/latitude-run-579-orisfur-pull-out-sofa-bed-loveseat-sleeper-with-twin-size-memory-mattress-with-two-usb-ports-spaces-w116607269.html) and the [Latitude Run twin loveseat at $489.99 on sale](https://www.wayfair.com/furniture/pdp/latitude-run-pull-out-sofa-bed-loveseat-sleeper-with-twin-size-memory-mattress-with-two-usb-ports-for-living-room-spaces-w118152057.html?piid=123780614) in one configuration, are $90 apart and list the same bed type. When two listings match on bed size and mattress, set the closed and seat measurements next to each other before paying the difference. **A specified mattress.** Costco's Liviana lists a queen with a 4.75-inch Serene foam mattress at $1,199.99. Room & Board's Natalia lists a 4-inch high-resilience foam mattress on a 61 by 80 inch surface from $3,599. Thickness doesn't explain the $2,399.01 between them. The Natalia's listing adds that each seat pulls out independently and extends onto legs, which is a different build from a single pull-out. **A mechanism with its own warranty.** American Leather lists a limited lifetime frame warranty and a limited 3-year mechanism warranty on the Revere, and a 5-year mechanism, 10-year frame, 2-year mattress and 2-year cushion warranty on its Contract Today Sleeper. On the IKEA, Costco and Room & Board models above, ask whether the mechanism has a warranty term of its own, because the pull-out is the part that moves every time. Mattress type by itself doesn't fix a price. A foam sleeper and an innerspring sleeper of the same size from the same maker would settle it, and the models here don't pair that way, so compare the construction and the thickness for each model you're considering. ## Is a cheap sleeper sofa good enough for a guest? For a few nights a year, usually yes, if the listing gives you the bed size and the mattress type. For regular sleeping, the thickness is where the money goes. Two named reviewers say the same thing about the sleeping layer. Ottilie Blackhall at [Homes & Gardens](https://www.homesandgardens.com/buying-guides/best-sleeper-sofas) writes that sofa-bed comfort varies with mattress type and thickness, and recommends pocket springs where possible. Hannah Healey at [Which?](https://www.which.co.uk/reviews/sofas/article/how-to-buy-a-sofa-bed-ap7YO4t5wNW6) says sofa-bed mattresses are generally thinner and less supportive than bed mattresses, and tells buyers to check the mattress size instead of assuming a bigger sofa makes a bigger bed. The downsides those statements point to are a thinner and less supportive mattress, a shorter bed on some models, the effort of converting it and the floor it takes once open. The seat is the other half: IKEA describes the FRIHETEN as firm, and the Latitude Run twin loveseat lists an 18.9-inch seat height and a 24-inch seat depth, so sit on the measurements you'll live with on the 360 other nights. [The sleeper sofa guide](https://plushpick.com/guides/best-sleeper-sofas/) ranks six by what the maker prints about the bed, and [how to make a sofa bed more comfortable](https://plushpick.com/blog/how-to-make-a-sofa-bed-more-comfortable/) covers what to add to a bed you already own. ## Can you sleep on a sofa bed every night? It can work on a model designed and warranted for regular use, and a thin sleeper meant for occasional guests shouldn't be treated as a primary bed. If you already have back or neck pain, ask a clinician first. The [Sleep Foundation](https://www.sleepfoundation.org/sleep-hygiene/sleeping-on-the-couch) says a sleeper sofa gives a surface comparable to a mattress but generally with a thin mattress that folds out of the sofa, and that regular couch sleeping can affect sleep quality and add to aches because many couches don't support the spine in a neutral position. [Which?](https://www.which.co.uk/reviews/sofas/article/how-to-buy-a-sofa-bed-ap7YO4t5wNW6) warns that long-term use may worsen existing back or neck issues, and suggests memory foam or pocket springs and as much thickness as practical. Makers vary. American Leather's [Contract Today Sleeper](https://www.americanleather.com/products/contract-today-sleeper/) describes its platform sleeper as practical for daily use and lists a 4-inch foam mattress with a 5-year mechanism warranty. For the Revere, which lists the same 4-inch foam and a 3-year mechanism warranty, ask the retailer whether the maker rates it for nightly use. Koala's [sofa-bed mattress guide](https://uk.koala.com/blogs/sleep/sofa-bed-mattress-guide) says nightly use depends on mattress depth, the support core, the mechanism's rating and the base, and points to a daybed with a standard mattress when those aren't met. I've had back pain since I was 18, which is why I read the mattress thickness before anything else on a sleeper, though that's a reading habit and not a medical opinion. ## What to buy instead of a sleeper sofa Koala's guide points to a daybed with a standard mattress when a sofa bed can't offer enough mattress depth, support or a mechanism built for daily use. A [futon or click-clack sofa bed](https://www.sleepfoundation.org/sleep-hygiene/sleeping-on-the-couch) folds the sofa cushions down into the sleeping surface, and [what a futon costs](https://plushpick.com/blog/how-much-does-a-futon-cost/) is a separate set of prices. [The difference between a futon and a sofa bed](https://plushpick.com/blog/futon-vs-sofa-bed/) comes down to one surface or two. A large sofa doesn't make a large bed, so if you want a sofa big enough to sleep on, read the mattress dimensions on the listing rather than the sofa's width, and pair it with a separate mattress if nightly sleeping is the plan. ## Where to buy a sleeper sofa, and what the return terms say Costco does sell sleepers. Its listings include the Simon Li Liviana queen, the Lifestyle Solutions Westport, the Hinsley and the Rosie. Return terms differ a lot between sellers: Return and delivery terms on named sleepers, October 2026 | Seller and model | Return terms listed | Delivery and assembly | | --- | --- | --- | | IKEA FRIHETEN | 365-day return period for a full refund, subject to IKEA's terms | Ships in two packages | | Costco Liviana | Costco.com products can be returned to its warehouses | Delivery, setup and packaging removal included; about 2 to 4 weeks | | Wayfair Latitude Run Orisfur | 30-day return policy for most items, refund or store credit | Assembly required; professional assembly costs extra | | Room & Board Berin Thin Arm (clearance) | Final sale: no returns, exchanges or cancellations | $159 full-service delivery | Seller and modelIKEA FRIHETEN Return terms listed365-day return period for a full refund, subject to IKEA's terms Delivery and assemblyShips in two packages Seller and modelCostco Liviana Return terms listedCostco.com products can be returned to its warehouses Delivery and assemblyDelivery, setup and packaging removal included; about 2 to 4 weeks Seller and modelWayfair Latitude Run Orisfur Return terms listed30-day return policy for most items, refund or store credit Delivery and assemblyAssembly required; professional assembly costs extra Seller and modelRoom & Board Berin Thin Arm (clearance) Return terms listedFinal sale: no returns, exchanges or cancellations Delivery and assembly$159 full-service delivery Restocking fees and return shipping aren't printed on those product pages, so ask for both in writing, along with any exclusion for sleepers or assembled furniture. Return rules also differ between regular stock, clearance and marketplace sellers. Before you order, get the exact mattress size, the closed width and depth, how far the bed reaches into the room when open, the package dimensions and the delivery service. [Sofa bed dimensions](https://plushpick.com/blog/sofa-bed-dimensions/) shows how to measure the floor for an open bed. ## How much does a sleeper sofa weigh? Between about 170 and 277 pounds on the named models. Listed weights: Costco's Westport 170.4 pounds, the Liviana 185, the Hinsley 190, Room & Board's Natalia about 205, and the Rosie 277 with a listed sofa weight capacity of 250 pounds. The Hinsley lists a 500-pound sofa capacity and 350 pounds for the sleeper. IKEA's FRIHETEN ships in two packages of 102 pounds 8 ounces and 123 pounds 7 ounces, about 226 pounds together, and IKEA says it is tested for typical use by people weighing up to 242 pounds. Plan the route as well as the room: door width, stair turns, elevator limits, package dimensions, and whether the seller carries it in. Costco includes setup and packaging removal on the Liviana; the Wayfair Orisfur needs assembling by you or a paid service. ## Can a regular mattress go on a sleeper sofa? Don't assume it will. Sleeper frames use model-specific mattress dimensions, folding requirements and thickness limits. Use only the mattress size and thickness the maker approves for that exact mechanism, and measure before you buy a replacement; [the comfort guide](https://plushpick.com/blog/how-to-make-a-sofa-bed-more-comfortable/) walks through what to measure first. ## What fabric is best for a sleeper sofa? The one with the performance figures you can read and the care your household needs. IKEA lists the FRIHETEN Bomstad cover at 50,000 abrasion cycles; look for the named test, Wyzenbeek or Martindale, before setting that count against another maker's. [The fabric guide](https://plushpick.com/guides/best-fabric-for-sofa/) explains how to compare them. ## What do one-seat and twin sleepers cost? About $399.99 to $589.99 on the Wayfair listings named here. The [Orisfur 57.9-inch loveseat sleeper](https://www.wayfair.com/furniture/pdp/latitude-run-579-orisfur-pull-out-sofa-bed-loveseat-sleeper-with-twin-size-memory-mattress-with-two-usb-ports-spaces-w116607269.html) is $399.99 on sale with a twin memory foam mattress, and closed it measures 57.9 inches wide, 28.5 deep and 35.8 high. The [Lark Manor Orisfur pull-out](https://www.wayfair.com/furniture/pdp/lark-manor-orisfur-pull-out-sofa-bed-loveseat-sleeper-with-twin-size-memory-mattress-for-living-room-spaces-w113632351.html) is $589.99 with a twin memory foam mattress. A listing that says single, one-seat or individual doesn't set a bed size, and these are loveseat-sized with twin beds, so confirm the open sleeping surface and the mattress thickness before ordering. ## Storage, leather, modern and brand-name sleepers Each variant adds something specific. The [IKEA FRIHETEN sleeper sectional](https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/friheten-sleeper-sectional-3-seat-w-storage-skiftebo-dark-gray-s69216757/?msockid=36a7caf4099a67a13d13dc3c0880665e) is $999 with storage under the chaise and a pull-out bed of 55 1/8 by 80 3/8 inches. For a modern look, the Room & Board Natalia has tapered arms and independent pull-out seats from $3,599. For leather, the American Leather Revere offers leather or fabric. For an Ashley or West Elm sleeper, confirm the exact model's current price, bed size, mattress type and thickness, and the sleeper return terms on the retailer's page before comparing it with the bands above. **Quiz: Which price band fits your guest bed?** 1. Two Wayfair twin memory foam pull-outs are $90 apart. What should you compare first? - The brand names - The closed and seat measurements on each listing **(correct answer)** - The color of the cover 2. Costco's Liviana lists a 4.75-inch mattress at $1,199.99 and Room & Board's Natalia a 4-inch one at $3,599. What explains the gap? - The mattress thickness - Other parts of the build, since the cheaper sleeper lists the thicker mattress **(correct answer)** - Nothing at all 3. A sleeper will be used most nights. Which spec matters most? - The color of the cover - The mattress thickness and a mechanism rated for regular use **(correct answer)** - The width of the arms 4. A sleeper is listed as clearance. What do you check before paying? - Whether it is final sale **(correct answer)** - The color of the frame - Whether it has a footstool ## Frequently asked questions **How much does a sleeper sofa cost?** In named listings read in October 2026, from $299 for an IKEA FRIDHULT to $4,299.99 for a Room & Board Berin Thin Arm queen-plus on clearance. Between them sit $399.99 for a twin loveseat, $899 for IKEA FRIHETEN, $1,199.99 for a Costco queen and $3,599 for a Room & Board queen. Compare by bed size and mattress thickness rather than by one average. **What is the cheapest sleeper couch, and is a cheap one comfortable?** The lowest named listing is the IKEA FRIDHULT at $299, then the IKEA BALKARP and FRIDHULT in Skiftebo yellow at $349 and the Wayfair Orisfur twin at $399.99. A cheap sleeper can work for a guest for a few nights; for regular sleeping, look for a thicker mattress and a mechanism warranty. **Does Costco sell a sleeper sofa?** Yes. Costco lists the Simon Li Liviana queen at $1,199.99 with delivery, setup and packaging removal included, along with the Westport, Hinsley and Rosie. Check the return terms on the exact listing. **What should you look for when buying a sleeper sofa?** The exact mattress size and thickness, the closed and open dimensions, the weight and package sizes for your route, the assembly requirement and the return terms for sleepers. Ask for any figure the listing leaves out. **Is it worth getting a sleeper sofa?** It is when one room has to be both a living room and a guest room and floor space is tight. For a guest who sleeps there most nights, a bed or a daybed with a standard mattress is the more direct answer. ### Sleeper sofa terms on a listing Tap a term to see what it means. **Pull-out underframe.** The part of IKEA's FRIHETEN you pull out after removing the back cushions, which opens the bed. **Linkrest.** The sleeper mechanism Costco names on the Liviana, with the seat cushions folding under it for storage. **Pop-up.** The mechanism name on Room & Board's Oxford, listed as a Pop-Up Queen Sleeper with a storage chaise. **Mechanism warranty.** A term covering the folding hardware on its own, which American Leather states apart from the frame warranty. **Queen-plus.** Room & Board's name for the Berin's 66 by 77 inch mattress, wider than the 60 by 80 inch queen on the Oxford and shorter than it. **Final sale.** A clearance condition, as on the Room & Board Berin Thin Arm, where returns, exchanges and cancellations aren't offered.
