Are we talking about an overnight guest or long-term sleeping arrangements?

I was thinking that you could get one of those inflatable mattresses (air bed?)
and put that on top of the original sleeper sofa mattress. You can make up your
own mind whether that would be overnight or long-term! (Be careful that there
is something between the springs and the air bed so you don't cause any
punctures.)

I have two futon beds/mattresses. One is a cheap, thin mattress. I don't think
it would ever be comfortable without several additions to make it thicker. A
couple of foam pads as someone suggested might work.

The other futon mattress is 8" thick and I can tell that there is some foam in
there. It's much, much more comfortable. Still, I won't sleep on it without a
foam pad on top. (Maybe I'm just spoiled.) When it comes to futon mattresses,
thicker is better.

To answer your original question, "Is there such a thing as a comfortable
sleeper sofa?" The answer is, for sleeping, no! (For sitting, sure.)
