Warning!
Are you buying a quality mattress?
There are companies selling very cheap futons on the internet. These mattresses are very thin and the fillings are of poor quality. It is also made difficult for you to return your mattress when you receive it and realise the difference between buying a cheap product and buying a good value one!
We do not quote our mattresses by layers or by centimetres. Why? Because we use natural materials the layers vary in thickness. For example you could have a retailer who supplies a 6 layer that is thicker than the 8 layer from someone else. A mattress quoted as an exact thickness might look impressive but if poor quality materials are used the mattress will flatten very quickly. There is no UK standard for futon mattresses.
At Futons4u we only sell good quality, good value mattresses. All of our futon mattresses have a top and bottom layer of poly cotton wool and a number of centre layers of rebound felt, which will give you real comfort for a good nights sleep.
As a general guide our Standard tri-fold mattress is approximately 12-15cms deep. Our SUPREME bi-fold mattress is
approximately 17-20cms thick
