Hi all,

ive been reading the forums on which bed setup to use and the winning combination seems to be the folding bed and sim setup so thats what were going for

ive studied up on the folding beds and its now whittled down to 2, so i wondered if there is any difference between the 2 we have found as they look identical in the pictures but made by 2 different company's, Outwell & Kampa
so any advice or experience given would be gratefully accepted thank you in advance

the 2 we have found are;
Outwell Posadas double & the kampa together double

thanks again everyone

I don't know about the Kampa but we are in the second year of using our outwell posadas and we love it, recently got a 5cm sim to go on it too and it's as comfy as my bed at home

Are we the only couple that don't sleep together when camping?!! We did try double airbed with double sleeping bag when we first started about 10 years ago but we got a horrible draught and cold area down the middle. We now each have our own campbed with box airbed on top and our own sleeping bag, much more comfortable and much warmer!

Sorry to hijack your thread Vinn-e

With respect Jeffer's, even after the kids have flown the nest, it's still bliss to have a bed to yourself!
Our rented villa in Spain also comes with the "Twin bed" set up.

Just need to sort our own bedroom out now!!
