Just wondering. How strong are the Pennine Fiesta beds.

Balancing on two thin poles. Will it take the weight of two adults. Im sure it must - just seeking reassurance!

we used our fiesta for the first time last year and how glad I am that moved from tent to f/c ,it stood up to all the bad weather in August when the tents around were getting washed away .We had no problems at all with our weight on the bed (I am a dainty 15st and partner is 12st), only thing I have done for this year is buy a 1 1/2 inch thick piece of foam as we found the mattress a bit thin

Thanks folks.

Just worrying that if a bearing in one of the legs was to fail we will end up being tipped out of the side!

Is there some sort of safety on this?

Don't worry,I've never heard of a pole giving way, but if you want reassurance, why not rig up a detachable adjustable pole that would fit in the middle of the other two legs, Have a good nights kip

Im thinking that my wife and I will have the side that forms the seat. And my 6 yr old will have the permanent bed. Looks like the sofa bed has thicker foam. Does it?
