I bought this for the Karlstad ikea sofa bed. When i fold it into the sofa it slants forward and does not close before; is there any way to fix this?

yeah, I dont know if this foam is meant to stay folded like that when it fully expands.. I have no idea, maybe just place it somewhere else. Possibly you could put a cardboard or thin rectangle piece of wood in between the folds when you are trying to fold the sofa?

Hey Gabriela, looks like that sofa bed was designed for only the cushions that came with it, in the closed position. I know of no way to add the memory foam, and have the sofa bed close correctly. I would just roll up the memory form, and store it else where until it's needed. Not sure if you were able to leave it on the sofa bed, that when the sofa is closed for a long period of time, that the compression of the closed sofa bed, might have some adverse affects on the memory foam.Sorry, wish I could be more help, and good luck!!

A big dip DID develop in the middle, but I had the person who helped me assemble this over and we figured out what we did wrong. We only put the cover over the MATTRESS and it should go over the metal below, if that makes sense. We fixed it two months ago and it is staying put. Haven't noticed one side being firmer than the other--they are both the same. I can see where, over time, the side that you actually sit on as a couch getting worn out and less firm, but this hasn't happened yet.

If you mean a sofa that pulls out into a bed, then I suppose you could use it, but only when the bed is opened and take it out before you fold up the bed. Also, the one I got is twin size, so if your sofa bed is wider, then you'd need a wider support as well.

I don't know. Maybe it will be looser after folding and unfolding several times. Mine has the same problem... I just keep it unfolded.

Be sure that the folding supports, inside the top on both sides, have lowered and are "snapped open". The pressure of your feet on the top will ensure continued holding of the open position. Mine has made a huge improvement in my back and knee problems. Good luck with yours.

Im guessing you assembled the front of the drawer upside down. I did the same thing on one of my and the drawer would not close all the way. It would hit the bottom lip of the stand. Hope this helps.

didn't have that problem. what I would do is contact who you got it from and ask for an exchange or refund.it might be just a default in that one. it did settle when the box spring and matters was added.

I have developed the same problem ! Instead of pushing it in directly, try sliding it in from the bottom of the position.I can get it to stay like that, but it doesn't go in all the way. Still, it stays in place although not perfectly.If i find another solution, i will let you know.

There are 2 spots when folding. Lift up on lower latch and step down on side bar. Once you do it total breeze. I love this stoller. Hope that helps. I watched the video available on YouTube before I bought this. It helped!

my sofa got larger and then it deflated and that was due to a spontaneous hole that was created in the base of the sofa. This sofa has some dynamics to it that i can't understand and that is why i will not buy it again. I bought the first one and holes appeared in them. So i thought it may be due to my fault so i ordered another one because the price is good but the same thing happened and i realized it was a defect in the material if you air it up to much it swells as you say but then after that swelling spontaneous leaking and even if you don't over inflate spontaneous leaking happens from some random hole it is like if a "worm hole opens spontaneously". my sofa got larger and then it deflated and that was due to a spontaneous hole that was created in the base of the sofa.

It's very springy--you can bend it as much as you like, but it will return to flat as soon as you let go of it. (Heaven help anyone who is trying to re-wrap it to send it back!) It also has a tendency to slip to one side or the other and require frequent re-positioning, pretty much every time you make the bed. I'm going to try to invent something involving snaps and elastic to keep it in place better. But as far as folding without damage--it might get a crease if it's folded tight, but that will even out in a day or so once it's released.

It's like a lawn chair....fold it forward and you'll hear the "clicks"....it should lie flat then. If you can't get it to stay in a chair position after that, lift it slightly in the middle and it kind of resets.

I did experience this when I first put it together. I noticed it happened when I was positioned a bit too forward on the seat. I doesn't seem to to do it anymore, so I figure it was a quirk that happened when it was first put together.

when you hold it open for a while, specially of it fold it all the way back, it won't align completely when you close it, but it only only takes a few seconds to stretch it and close it so it aligns again. it's a minor issue with me because like I said I just push the lid from the area where it folds towards the front, a couple of pushes and it's back to closing perfectly, I can imagine with time I won't have to do it anymore.

Sorry - I don't know how to fix this. Mine is not bent but rarely will flip up and lock the slide back - are you sure it's not just flipped up? It's easy to do when you are pulling the slide back because it takes so much force to pull it back. Sorry I can't be more help!

Oh wow, not had that happen. Is the top drawer fully pushed inward? Maybe toy around with the top drawer to see if that helps.

dear D.Flowers...if your ends are curled up,that means the foam mattress ends did not spread apart..you may have to unzipper it and straighten it (it could be that during expanding process the cashmere top caught the foam mattress and it didn't unfold right )..to fully expand should only take 8hrs ......hopefully this will help you
