Can you use this futon on the floor, then fold it up and put it in the closet easily during the day, like the Japanese do?

This mattress is too thick and stiff to be folded. I don't think it is suitable for a futon or for folding it up.

No. The mattress can definitely be used on the floor and is relatively comfortable. However, it is difficult to fold it because it is pretty thick. Definitely cannot be folded and placed into a closet

There's definitely potential for rolling up and moving. I have the king size and two people can roll it up, but it would require a significant amount of closet space for storing.

I don't think it would make a good futon mattress because of its thickness and firmness. I don't think you would be able to fold it like a regular futon mattress. If you left it as a bed all the time it would work great.

Yes, this ramp folds up easily and can fit under the bed or in a closet. Very portable and very durable.

Interesting question. Generally I'd say 'I guess so' to the sheets, and 'No' to the comforters. I suppose if you laid a sheet out over the entire thing, it would be fine. If you tried to fold the sheet and hang it from one of the rods, it would probably be a little heavy and might snap the rods from their soldered joints. And it would almost certainly touch the floor. If it were me, I'd stick to a more traditional clothesline to hang sheets and blankets.

I agree with most of the answers here. I got it for my son, and I am happy with the purchase. It rolls up fine, but I don't think it's possible to fold it in half first. It won't work. But, it does fold up enough to get it out of the way like in a closet. Hope this helps

Yes. For example, it will fold down the middle along the longer dimension sufficiently easily that it can be used on a standard sofa-type futon frame. Keeping it in place when in sofa mode might be a problem. I guess that's always a problem. I have resorted to lashing straps to keep the futon from settling down. Basically, it folds just as well along either direction.

Hard to tell. You would not be able to keep this on the futon, that is, you would have to take off to fold up futon. If futon is REALLY uncomfortable, I don't think it will make it that much better. Hope this helps.

You could put it in a closet but it is a bit too tall and your clothes might lay on top. I keep mine next to my dresser.

I think it would be a hassle to fold and store every day...being that I use it everyday, we don't mind having it at the very side of the room. It is very low profile, and the footprint is only 18"-24" wide...so it doesn't stick out. We ordered the black one, so that it is less obtrusive. I hope that helps...feel free to ask any other questions. I ordered mine in May and use it nearly daily. I have several pieces of exercise equipment...and this is by far my favorite to use. The only piece in the living room.

Yes easy to fold. It depends on how big your closet it. A standard clothing closet or coat closet yes. It would take up about 3 feet widthwise and 4 feet tall. It can roll so it does not need to be picked up but weighs about 35lbs.

i have not folded it and put it away but I would imagine it would be very easy since there was absolutely nothing to putting it up in the first place. I have 2 twin beds and I had them both set up& ready to go in less than 5 min. I love these beds, they are sturdy, comfortable and there is room for storage totes underneath.

You can lay it on the floor, but it will move around a little just like carpet. You can try to tie or tape the strings if you feel the need.somehow.

No, it isn't foldable, but as others have noted, it's pretty streamlined so it's not a really obtrusive piece of equipment, depending on the room in which you keep it. I ~could~ fit it very comfortably in my bedroom sliding door closet and put extra shoes on it (very handy) but then I wouldn't be using it to work out, like I'm supposed to. I have it near a bedroom bookshelf, and it's really easy to use, but out of the way, too. Depends on how you want to store such equipment.

Hi, the legs just fold inward and then it folds in half. The size folded is small enough that you could probably put it in your closet, etc.

Yes you can, but it's quite heavy and doesn't roll easily over carpet. But we have moved it both into and back out of our bedroom and into the family room st the other end of the house. I wouldn't want to do it on a daily basis or by myself though.

You can fold it, it's not likely to stay that way unless, like Dr. L Berstis said, "enough constant weight". We have our matress on a tri-fold futon frame, we have used light restraints to keep it in place when it's not laying flat. It has 'learned' some of the folds after less than 2 months.
