can i just put this foam on the bare floor and sleep on it , instead on keeping it on top of mattress?

You could but the foam starts firm and the longer your on it the softer it becomes. You would notice you had pad unless your a back sleeper then you should be fine.

I do not believe it would be very comfortable. It is super soft and you may feel the hard floor underneath depending on one's weight, but if you don't have back trouble and sleep comfortable on say, carpeted floor, it may be ok.

We have ours on a mattress. I think it's too thin for a total mattress. You need a 6 inch thick topper for that or buy two of these. It's not hard foam it's very soft so you will also need a base for it to sit on or it will fold into the grooves of the support boards on the bed.

I put mine on top of our old box spring, worked fine. Bed sets a little lower with this mattress as it is not as thick as our old foam mattress was.

yes but it has to be on top of the mattress. You sleep directly on it.... cp

I laid a sheet over it and put it on the floor, I don't think you want to put anything thick on it.

No, you'll have to find a way to dispose of your old mattress yourself. Also, the setup is quite easy, if you have a helper. Once you place the mattress and take off the wrap, it will fill with air, and after a few hours you can sleep on it.

No. Its not made out of foam, so its nice and breathable. It really is a dream to sleep on!

Well, its just a Big'ol piece of foam... semi-ridged. It should rest on top of whatever your old mattress was on, no problems. Its quality foam, no complaints, here. Rigid, yet pliable, fit onto my previous plywood, makeshift bed frame, no problem!

I have it on top of what is called plush on my new mattress. I can't say I notice anything that effects the plush part of the mattress. I sleep on a memory foam when I visit my daughter and I think it would help to have this on top. But I don't know for sure.

Yes, it is chris, and yes you may put a regular mattress on top. I put a foam mattress and I am very happy with my bed..no complaints, it is sturdy and functional.... perfecto

I put on top of my old mattress, and it worked great!I don't have a memory foam or a pillow top, but I think it will make it feel firmer.

You could... but this mattress doesn't need a box spring anyways. I bought a fold up bed frame that you put the mattress on. It only cost like $59.00 and takes a couple of minutes to set up, its light weight and sits up about a foot high so you can store things under the bed. It would look a lot nicer than sleeping directly on the floor. Stay cleaner too.

Yes you can. Once you transition the futon into a bed position the Memory Foam Mattress works very well on a futon. I had the same problem with my futon (metal frame) in which the metal bars where pushing up into my back. While I did not use the Memory Foam Mattress on my futon (returned the futon), I did utilize it on a military metal bunk in Afghanistan. When I left there I donated the mattress to a co-worker.

No you can't put anything over it. The whole idea of the sheet is that you sleep on it and that's how the eathing happens. Putting a sheet over it will insulate you from it. It's a great sheet and doesn't nee anything over it. Hope that helps.

The instructions say not to- I'm sure there's a flammability concern.As long as it is not thick, you should still be able to feel the heat/warmth.I don't have a foam top, but I am considering using an extra pad this year since I feel some of the coil bumps now that it is 4 years old. I turn my heater off as I fall asleep since I get TOO hot! :)

Umm, I would have to ask our guests, since they slept on it like that once. I don't think you would though like it would happen with a regular foam.

I would say, "no." Our mattress is a pillow top on only one side and in pretty rough condition. I actually ended up flipping the mattress over to the non-pillow top side and put the pad on that side... it's been GREAT since I did that!
