I'm wanting this for my sleeper couch, because my mother in law has back problems. Does it compress down far enough to fold into the couch?

Yes it's very flimsy, it ripped when I was trying to put it on my regular bed so I wouldn't recommend that

If you plan to remove the old mattress and use this one in its place, it will easily fold into the sofa when closed. It was actually thinner than the mattress our sofa bed came with. If you plan to use it on top of the old mattress, they will not both fit when closed.

folds out to a twin but after a week it seems to sort of deflate and becomes uncomfortable to lay on even in the couch positoion

The 5" arrives compressed in heavy-weight plastic wrap, not a bag. It would be difficult to re-compress it. You may be able to fold it into the couch if it were under a fitted sheet to keep it in place.

I think it might work for you. My bed has a storahe compartment underneath. The lid/base is hinged in the middle. lifting the lid will raise and fold the mattress maybe close to 90 degrees. Mattress doesn't like to bend that deep but will. I believe the mattress came folded in half - packed in a cardboard box. But yes, it will fold but maybe under protest.

This futon tends to compress pretty quickly. I rolled it up every morning when I wake up. After two or three weeks, it gets compressed and less comfortable for me. Over two years, it started to give me backache. My weight is 60kg.

We bought ours for our motor home couch sleeper. It's basically an air mattress with automatic inflate and deflate functions. I like that it's covered with "mattress" material. It is a stand alone mattress. I think it would be OK to place on top of a sofa bed, but too thick to fold away until you removed it. I've slept on it a few times and it feels fine to me!

yes, it can be fold as a couch. But it will to thick for those trifold type futon.

No. It's a pretty big blanket and is thick considering it is just layers of thin cotton muslin. But it does not compact down when folded.

I would not think that you could fold it lengthwise because of the density.You could just lay it in your recliner just as it is to flip our. If you have a bad back and need support, you might want to check into a memory foam mattress for your bed through Walmart online. I have one and I would not trade for the world. It forms with your body, just like the Tempurpedic Mattress and it costs less. Hope this helps. The Best.

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.

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.

I would think so. I compresses pretty flat. When it arrived in the mail, it was only about 1/2' thick. It plumps up rather quickly! Hope it works for you.

It will compress a little, because it has a soft liner. However, I'm not sure I would try to compact it to much so you don't compromise the integrity of the liner.

Yes, once deflated, a very quick process, it will fit into a sofa. Be careful not to pinch it in the moving parts on the sofa if there are any. We use it on a fold away sofa in a motorhome. It works well and is very comfortable, but we do watch that it doesn't get pinched in the metal folding supports of the sofa..

It was 'shrink wrapped' when it came but I think it would be rather large after opening, to be used for this. To be used for a sofa sleeper, I think it would either fold in nicely or 'possibly' make it not close right. I would ask the seller if it were me because it really is comfortable to sleep on.

It folds into 3 but whether you could leave it on and fold into sofa not sure but you could use once it is pulled out. It gives support but does not add comfort.
