Hi, all. I’m looking for a sturdy, decent quality daybed with pop-up trundle that turns into fuller bed. Preferably with extra storage (drawers). I found a few however the mattress thickness all seems to be between 4-6”. I’d really like an 8” thick mattress capable bed.

Also, I’m not really a fan of Wayfair furniture. Everything I’ve ever ordered through them have been cheap, poorly made.
I would appreciate any insight if others have had luck finding something similar. Thanks!!!
Hey fellow IKEA peeps, recently got our LO an Ikea hemnes daybed. He absolutely loves it. I was eyeing it for a while and so glad we bought it.
I ordered online and had it delivered. Because I had a feeling thing was heavy and I was right! It comes in four boxes. I assembled it by myself (F, 5’7, 134lbs)— now I’d say it’s possible to do it alone BUT it helps if you enjoy putting things together and don’t mind breaking a bit of a sweat. It took me the better part of an entire afternoon. I also had to haul each singular piece upstairs, so it was a lot of trips because the boxes were too heavy on my own.
I love the color, we got the yellow. It’s not too bright, it’s a matte vs glossy finish, and feels fun in our kids room.
We used two 6” mattresses off Amazon. I tried to research endlessly what options felt the best and ultimately got these, https://a.co/d/fJhGENW. They are great. A medium firm. My LO is under 50lbs so not much weight is on them. They’re still a good width if we need to extend it and have them side by side for the king version.
Anyway, feel free to ask any Qs. The only thing, I’m not sure if all hemnes daybeds do this, but our bottom platform doesn’t fully sit against the upper frame. Added a photo. It’s not a deal breaker and doesn’t mess with the functionality— just pointing that out.

I'm trying to find a daybed that has a pop up trundle where an 8" mattress can fit on the trundle. The only ones I have been able to find are metal beds, which I'm not a fan of. I have a modern apartment and am looking for something that goes with that style. I don't think a 6" mattress will be comfortable but so few seem to fit an 8" one. Any suggestions?
