can this mattress be used on a futon

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.

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

I would say "no" it's to big and I doubt it would fold up like it needs too

no, it is way to heavy, this is a very thick mattress, and it doesn't bend that well. futon mattresses are usually only 6-8" deep. plus it is actually firm

futon mattresses are designed to fold. this one is not. you might make it work if you strapped it down at the fold and at both ends but its 8 inches thick and will only fold with difficulty. i wouldn't try it.

Probably! The futon mattress is only about 1"-1.5" tall. You would want to put some sort of a sheet over it to prevent them from pulling at the ties or the string tufts - a regular single or twin-size fitted sheet works just fine on it.

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.

It would be very dificult, this futon is thick and meant for comfort. Just get a normal futon frame from walmart for $70 and this matress.

If by regular side mattress you mean a spring mattress, yes. Actually I think any type of mattress would work, since it is a flat surface. So, futons, foam, etc. should all work.

The space between the slats is 3 1/2". I don't think that a futon mattress would slide through, it would be too thick.

It doesn't seem to be designed for one, but if you're a carpenter, I'm sure you could manage to attach one. In my case, I thought it came with a crappy mattress, but found it was intended for a futon. I ended up ordering a rollaway foldup bed which really serves my purposes better. The frame is sturdy, but I think they assume you will apply finish to some or all of it.

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.

No.it's not thick enough for comfort for your weight. I would go with a futon or a much thicker mattress.

The mattress wouldn't be flexible enough for a mattress at least for putting it in the seated position. The mattress should be a futon mattress for your best use of the frame.

Not sure. It depends how big your futon is. You can look at the dimensions of the mattress given in the description, then measure your futon to see if it would fit.

Not sure it's made for a futon. I'm using it on a sofa bed. Comfortable and it stays in place

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.

This is 4.5 inches. You can use it but then you need to check dimensions but I think you should buy something thicker. just search for futon mattresses on amazon.

Yes, I believe it can. I mostly have it laying flat, except for when I have to move it for cleaning.By the way, in order to make this useable for everyday sleeping, I had to purchase a wool mattress cover that cost more than the Gold Bond futon. Cheers.

I believe so. My roommate currently uses the one I purchased for him on top of his futon mattress with no issues. It gives just enough extra cushion to a not-so-good mattress to make it decent. Hope this helps.
