Well, I would be happy with the mattress only, and not necessarily the bed.
Was already thinking of buying some kind of camping bed in helsinki, but i
guess it would be less expensive to buy them elsewhere and bring with us.

Also, notice that if we are going to buy loads of them, we might get some
serious discount.

I suppose that you need to add a thing for the mattress to rest on too, since
i believe cheap ikea bed don't have those.
