The folding mattress can be a very versatile and useful way to accommodate guests and add sleeping comfort to what may otherwise be an uncomfortable sleeping arrangement. There are a few different versions of what is considered a folding mattress, there are simple folding mattresses that are 3 different parts which stack on top of each other, similar to folding a resume for an envelope. Then there is a folding bed mattress which won’t really stack over itself and has a limited folding range. The limited range is because a folding mattress can still have springs and dense foam inside while the folding mattress is usually just foam which mean it can bend fully.
You can use them for a variety of purposes, from camping to accommodating other guests in the home. The are easy to fold and store and have multiple uses. For example you can fold one of the bed sides under while leaving another extended making it an easy piece of furniture to lay back on while extending the legs. A lot of hotels will use the folding mattress as a roll a way and bring it in if you need extra accommodations within one single room.
The foam inside the folding mattress is not usually meant to be super high comfort quality, it is mainly there for durability to make sure it can take the abuse of being folded over multiple times. Other draw backs include the somewhat awkward sizing. They are not exactly the same shape or size as a twin, they are a little smaller and so finding sheets to work with them can be a little tricky.
The prices on these can range between $50 to $250 dollars depending on the quality you want to have. Honestly the very BEST place to get deals on folding mattresses is on-line. They are not usually sold in great variety at a local furniture store and you can usually find someone that offers free shipping on-line. additionally this will allow you to compare brands and reviews in order to get the best deal.
The Absolute Comfort folding guest bed mattress is the highest rated on Amazon. It retails at $250.00 but is usually on sale for around $185. In addition to being made in the USA, the foam is pretty comfortable and makes a great temporary sleeping solution for the nights when allergies, sickness or snoring are just getting to me too much.
