THE 'BZ' mechanism makes this bed-settee extremely easy to operate.
CONSTRUCTION Tubular steel frame on seat; suspension via criss-cross webbing. Multi-ply slats on two sections of back. COMFORT Generous sleep area 160 x 195cm. A Ready-to-Sleep envelope sheet in 100% cotton, size 155 x 195cm, may be used if desired. Mattress in 11cm thick special bed-quality high resilience polyurethane Bultex foam (36kg/m3 - 2.8 kPa) with ecru-coloured hemmed, quilted ticking (100% polyester); an alternative version in polyether foam (28kg/m3 - 3.0 kPa) is also offered, with an ecru-coloured ticking (51% polyester/49% cotton) which may be zipped off and washed at 30°. Both types of ticking are treated with HealthGuard (antibacterial & fungicidal). Mattresses fold in two places so as to offer a perfectly flat sleep surface. The quilted cover is attached to the frame via a zip at the foot, and by velcro on the sides. For aesthetic reasons, those who do not intend to use the bed every day can zip the cover to the mattress at each of the two folds (NB these zips are unnoticeable while the settee is being used as a bed). Quilted cover may be removed for dry cleaning; only the small band which is attached to the mechanism at the foot end may not be removed for cleaning. The cover has accommodates two little pieces of foam at each side of the seat, which both improve its appearance and stop it bowing outwards: these are not at all noticeable to a sleeper, and can easily be removed prior to dry cleaning. Also available: pair of 55 x 55cm pillows. MAKING-UP This model is designed to be made in two colours: one on the internal edge of the quilt, and the other everywhere else. Pillows have one colour on one face, and one on the other.
