Is it comfortable to sleep on when folded half to make a twin size mattress?

I wouldn't recommend it, but I'm sure it would be if you could get it to stay. Do you have a fitted sheet to keep it in shape while you're sleeping?

You can't actually fold it bilaterally too well. To fold something, you need a seam along the folded edge to allow it. If you tried to fold this mattress down the center, it would resist and even unfold itself. The thick padding is thick for comfort's sake, but it also resists. So it would create a rounded bulbous spine, which I'm sure is uncomfortable to sleep on. Maybe if you did it abunch of times, it would shift the filler material away from the spine, and it would work? That's possible.

Hi Tedd I think you could fold it in half and it may work OK for you. My opinion is it would not be satisfactory. It is too short and fat for that. The way I cope with that is to mound up something underneath the pillow for more elevation. It is perfectly comfortable when it is a little soft so my head is somewhat cradled in the pillow. That is how it works for me. For back packing weight does matter. Thanks Ted

When I folded it in half to move it, it "puffed up" at the fold (gap in the middle -- it doesn't fold "flat"). You probably COULD z-fold it, but it wouldn't be tidy and it would probably unfold itself unless you piled something on it. I wouldn't expect to store it in your average closet without it taking over the space. As the mattress ages, the cotton batting (stuffing) will break down somewhat, but by the time it does this you'll probably want a new one (just like bed pillows -- once they're fold-able they've broken down and are less supportive and comfortable).

It is comfortable as a couch to sleep on, less so as a bed because of the fold. We put an additional pad from ikea on top when guests come.

No and no.. Sorry!! We have another pack and play that we travel with, and the one with the mattress stays home. It's amazing quality so it's thickness prevents it from folding.

We put the frame together and then we put mattress on it is the folding position. I believe there are written instructions for you to refer to

This mattress actually made my couch feel more comfortable when folded up. Also, it is comfy to lie on as well.

While it doesn't fold as small it is easier to fold. Nice and flat with mattress unless you get thicker mattress for it. Fits in back of mini van standing up or laying flat while folded.

Without puling it out of the storage, that is what I know. I'm 5'10" and used on my camping trip last year,, it quite comfortable, I had several inches left at the head and foot side, and after using pillow, I had a comfortable nights. It is slightly narrower than regular cot, that's give extra room In tent, the width does not affect comfort.

Well, probably, except the mattress is 12 inches thick and weighs about 70 lbs., so you can't really fold it up and put it away. If you are leaving it out it would probably be comfortable.

Yes!!,We have a sturdy mattress that comes with the Room 2. It also doubles as a case for it when you wrap it around the folded Room 2. It is very comfortable. We yous the maximum amount of padding allowed by the US government standards for maximum comfort.Thanks- Anthony at Joovy

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.

the coleman deluxe has a thin mattress on it so it really is comfortable. I'm overweight and it still supports me. a twin mattress might not stay on if you move a lot. it might cause you to fall over. I like it as.

No, the mattress is pretty thick and very firm. Not meant to be folded. But boy is that mattress awesome!

I have never once been bothered by the folds. You really won't notice them. Once you get used to the firmness and decide you like it (if you do) going back to a mattress will be disappointing. You'll be surprised how nice firmness can be.

I found that I can use an XL twin sheet on the futon. I think the other responses are more exact. I would agree that it is not large enough for 2 people to sleep comfortably. I have also slept comfortably on the futon without folding it out.
