can this be used for a futon?

It's the size of a twin bed and of course doesn't bend like a futon mattress. I bought a foldable bed frame and it works great

I think it can if you only plan to have the futon folded out as a bed. I don't think it would fold well enough to be used on a futon folded up as a couch.

I don't see why not, but you'd have to check the measurements and warranty. It's difficult to say how much wear and tear it could take from bending/unbending. It's pliable as it's memory foam.

After its reached it full thickness it will not be flexible enough to use for a futon. It will just slide off since its lightweight.

I don't think so when its fully inflated its pretty much flat. Not bendable.u could use it if the futon stays in "bed position".

Well I threw it on top of my old box springs that we put some plywood down on. I don't see why you couldn't do that on the futon.

If you have a nice thick mattress to distribute the weight a bit, it should be fine, IMO. Super thin futon would probably not be so good... I broke a slat on mine by putting all my weight on the weakest spot 1/4 of the way in from the edge, not a dive onto the bed exactly, but not the gentlest maneuver. We just have a thin futon and a topper. They sent me a new slat and I've been more respectful, so all good.

As far as I know you can. If you have an adjustable foundation, or if you don't, if you use just the mattress. It should work fine.

Not sure it would fold up with the futon for you, but I bet you could separate it and just bring it out when you need it. As far as laying it on top of the futon, why not? Maybe it depends on how lumpy your futon is. You could always try it - you can usually return stuff on Amazon if it doesn't work out.

It's made for a futon, so I would think it does. I only use mine as a queen mattress for my toyhauler. But is wonderfully comfortable.

That depends on your frame. Is it open without internal supports? How large the inside dimensions are. Look at the size description on the frame info. I believe it is roughly 735411.5 inches. It is designed as a stand alone or could be used as internal frame for your futon as long as your other frame is fully supported on its own.

Most of my kids use this futon directly on the ground. My son, however, has it on a twin bed frame. It is about 10 inches short of a twin mattress width, so I built bookshelves to take up the rest of the space so the futon does not slide around. I have looked around online and any frame that is smaller will cost several hundred dollars, which wasn't practical for us.

I really don't know, I have it on a platform bed. It requires a platform, not box-springs so it probably could be used on some futons if they are the platform type. Warranty is voided if not on a platform.

oh yes. I have a full size futon as well, and they are the same size. But if you're thinking about using this mattress on a futon, it will not fold in half so keep that in mind.

Check to see if the frame has holes in it at the ends as that's how the headboard attaches to the frame. Most mattresses fit on a metal frame that adjusts to size, and this headboard uses the predrilled holes in a metal frame to attach to with bolts. You could drill holes in a wooden frame of a futon to make it work, perhaps, but that's much more work than putting this on a predrilled frame and depends on having the right spacing in the wood and sufficient strength of the wood for these holes.

Yes. Compared to the futon, the smell is bearable. It can be aired out and improve in a day. The futon takes a few days at least to air out sufficiently.

I don't see any reason why not, I put mine on memory foam futon mattress and I love it. I will say that if there's a sink hole in your mattress it will follow it. It's a very comfortable topper:). Hope that helps.

If using as a spare. It's 12 in high just lay on floor. If futon is stready you can try but this will not roll back up for storage We have ours on top of metal frame from our sleep number bed. But this is 12 in high

Depends. Depends on if the sliver screw in (the metal piece that the legs screw into) are placed on the futon. Also those legs on that Futon are longer than this one. This one is shorter so if they did work then futon would be closer to the floor. You may need a higher inch leg(s).

You can short term. But for longer it would probably need a futon/slatted base for air circulation. FYI I'm a side sleeper and found it uncomfortable.
