I am trying to put the best mattresses I can on this. How thick of a mattress could fit on the bottom? I will be using a pop up trundle (5 1/2")

The space on the bottom is 12.75" high. So if your trundle is 5.5" the mattress should not exceed 7"

It's 5.5" H x 38"D x 72" L folded. My mattress is a very basic twin Serta, and I have to get my husband to help me get the pop up bed out from our SVARTA IKEA bunk bed when my daughters have sleepovers because it gets stuck in there. Make sure you consider the thickness of you mattress (the mattress will go in the trundle bed one inch), so your current bed should have a space that could fit the 5.5" from the trundle + the mattress - one inch (if that makes sense).

I would suggest a 5 inch if you want to replace the mattress with the lucid foam. The 4 inch might be a little thin. I think it would work though.

about 24 inches, depend how thick of your bottom mattress, you have to but the bottom mattress!

We didn't get the daybed with the trundle, only the daybed. We had a single-sided twin bunk mattress we used for the daybed. But if we had the trundle, I would recommend getting one of the 8" twin foam mattresses they sell at Costco and other places. It's low profile but a great mattress. It's actually what we did for our bunks so the railing seemed 'taller.'

This daybed fits a TWIN mattress. I also purchased a pop-up trundle for the space under the frame so that the bed could accommodate two adults when fully opened. I bought 2 TWIN mattresses, one for the top and one for the pop-up trundle. The mattresses were 38 in x 74 in x 6 in. I wanted the 6 in high mattress so that it would have a more comfortable feel that the thin 4 inch mattresses you tend to see on some models. I mention this height also because when fully outfitted with a mattress pad and sheets, the trundle is a snug fit when you put it back under the daybed. I remedied this by putting a double thickness cut to measure piece of brown self stick felt pad on the underside of each leg (Super Sliders brand purchased at my local Walmart). I bought the self-stick felt initially because of my hardwood floors, but soon realized that if I placed a double thickness under each leg post, then the trundle goes under the daybed with no trouble at all. The twin mattress on top also allows for whatever blanket or daybed cover you place on top to fit nicely between the mattress and the side rails. This is a very nice bed. I hope this explanation is helpful to you.

I measured ours & it is 1 1/2 inch thick. We had an old egg-crate foam mattress that we also put on the bed. It is VERY comfortable.

My mattress is not that thick, however, the extra material under my mattress I think would add to the extra height you have on yours. There is at least 5 extra inches of stretch material after stretching across my normal mattress. I think you will be fine. I also like this mattress pad because the elastic around the edges is not just a line of elastic it is elastic fabric which I think will give you what you may be looking for. Hope this helps.

I think my top mattress is about 5 inches thick. The bottom is closer to 8 inches. I'll check again to make sure. We've had the bed for. Month for two girls ages 6 & 4. No complaints!

Yes, use no more than 8" mattress because you will also need a Bunkyboard underneath both the top and trundle. Need to also warn you that the middle trundle wheels have "buckled" or "bent" even though my grandkid's weights are under 100 lbs. I contacted the company and though they wrote they would rectify the situation, they never have.

Our mattress is 12 inches thick pillow top and there is more room for a thicker mattress, I would have to say it would fit up to a 15 inch thick mattress. Ours works great

maybe the manufacturer doesn't quite give enough information on the pop-up trundle, pictures of the trundle system would be really nice so you could get a better idea of how this works. it's very sturdy, easy to pop-up and fits nicely under the day bed.

I used a Lucid 10" memory foam Twin XL on the top and a Lucid 8" memory foam regular Twin on the trundle. It fits just right. Probably anything thicker than 8" on the bottom would be too much.

The bottom of the mattress will be 13" above the floor. My mattress is 12" thick so my bedspread has to fall 25" on each side to touch the floor. Which it does not do. The optional slide out drawers work great also and they are 9 1/2 " tall and have 2" of clearance.

I found the 2 inch worked for me to a point. I found that the bede under must be reasonably firm. Thickness depends on the size of the person.

As thick as you can stand.The side rails on the top bunk are about 12" high. We put a mattress that's about 8" thick and it's fine. We did place small pieces of cork under the slat tubes so they won't rattle. This was before assembly so I can't say if they rattle or not, This was just preventive.
