So I need a bed. My last bed broke and I've been sleeping on this very thin foldable mat which is basically just on the floor.
It's not cutting it anymore.
The thing is, I would like a proper bed but there's a chance I will be moving writhin the next 4-6 months and I'd rather not throw money at a full-sized bed which will probably be a nuisance to move, if it's even possible.
So I'm looking for suggestions. This is what I want and don't want:
- Want: Something with a proper mattress that I can put a sheet on.
- Want: Something raised off the ground
- Don't want: An inflatable air mattress. I've had them and they puncture easily.
- Don't want: A mattress that is on the floor (like my current mat).
I was thinking about one of those foldable guest beds. Something to keep in mind: I'm 6'0" and about 260 lbs I guess (sigh) so it needs to support my height and weight.
Thoughts? I'm looking at the 100-150 range but a little higher would be okay. Obviously I don't want to spend an arm and a leg here. I like my arms and legs.

I should have mentioned that I favor Amazon because I have a Prime membership but I'm not adverse to suggestions involving other vendors.
The only thing stopping me from pulling the trigger is my concern over ever getting laid again. But if you are only looking for an interim bed, it would probably do the trick.
If you're agreeable to dropping 200 bucks on a hammock, just look at a proper bed - when you move, set aside a couple bucks for a cube van from uhaul, or a van. They're pretty cheap and I've done it a few times to move my crap. Given the bedbug thing that seems to be going around I'd get something new.
So I mean, I wouldn't rule them out completely if you can't find anything else in your price range.. just get a really good one.
