Answering these few questions before purchasing a futon mattress will help guide you to the right mattress for your needs. It's important to understand the use of your futon to get a good mattress that will hold up over time. Some mattresses do work better on one type of frame over another. Arm heights vary and thicker mattresses won't look right on them. These are just some of the variables when choosing the right mattress.
Ask yourself these questions:
- WHAT SIZE FOR YOUR FRAME
- WHO IS GOING TO USE
- FEEL OF YOUR MATTRESS (SOFTER OR FIRMER)
- HOW OFTEN WILL IT BE USED
- WILL IT BE SAT ON OR SLEPT ON MORE
- IS IT FOR AN EVERYNIGHT MATTRESS
- THICKNESS OF MATTRESS IN RELATION TO ARM
