Is this usable in a futon couch frame? That is, will it fold up?

I think it would be hard to fold up. Especially on a daily basis. Once you unwrap it from the way it's packaged to ship to you, it kind of wants to stay in that shape.

Since it comes rolled up, it should fold in half. Whether it will stay in that shape in a futon frame I don't know.

Not sure if I get what you are trying to do. I suppose you could place it on top of another matress but that would mean you could not fold it to a couch-it would have to stay flat. It will work on a wood frame alone as well.

Jonah, Although it is soft, it would not stay "folded" in the seated position. Also, because it is memory foam it would compress around the support bars. I would not recommend it for a futon.

No it does not fold up .you could hing it on the wall very easy out of the way.

We've only used it on a regular bed frame, but I don't think it would be pliable enough to be folded up to be the back and bottom cushions of a futon.

Our beds could fit in a futon couch frame if the dimensions are the exact same. However, our beds are not able to easily fold up in half horizontally because of the firmness of the bed.

Yes, it folds, but when you flatten it there's a small imprint where it was folded. For us, it's primarily in the couch position...

It does not fold. You should be able to unscrew it, unless you put glue on the screws when you put it together. Haha. Might be more trouble than it's worth.

Yes! It folds up almost flat! Perfect for storage under the bed or tucked away in a closet.

No, it does not fold up for storage. The frame is screwed together and is not hinged so it remains the same size whether it is in use or not.

Yes, it will fold if you take off the two expandable cords on the bottom and release both sides of the two cross braces on each side of the frame. It will fold to about a 7" thickness. This is a relatively simple procedure that takes about 5 minutes.

Yes, the frame can be folded but to fit under a bed you need to remove all the pads and change the angle of some of the stands. 5 min to fold, 5-10 to unfold and adjust.

It does not fold up. It's bolted together. But it's not that wide and I think you could hang it on the wall with a pair of bike hooks.

Yes, it does fold down for storage. I had a hard time with mine because one of the "buttons/joints" does not come apart as easily as the others. Otherwise, it is pretty quick and easy to put up and take down. You can easily take it down and slide it behind a couch or something.

If you intend to fold it back into the love seat like a sofa sleeper where u pull the matress out then no. Its to thick to fold into a couch type of situation. but if u intend to just put it on top of the old matress and take off when done that would work.

I use my futon as a couch in the day and a bed at night. Everyday I do fold it into a couch. It is very difficult if doing so with the mattress on the frame, but has been getting easier. I'm not sure if the mattress is getting softer or if I'm just getting used to it.

As long as the spring futon mattress can bend then yes. We use ours as a lounger and we like it a lot. We would like it even more if we had purchased a mattress with more spring in it. We are using a memory foam futon mattress with no springs and it can flatten out pretty quickly. As far as the frame, purchase without worry. We love ours
