Our queen sofabed is awful to sleep on as you can feel the metal supports though the thin mattress. Will adding this make it better for our guests?

Probably not enough to make a difference, if you can fell the metal supports.

I would go with something else. I threw mine out, very uncomfortable and awkward.

Yes, this will make it better, but I wouldn't recommend keeping it on the sofabed when it is in sofa mode. These pads take a while to flatten after being curled.

I would go with the 3" at least for that...the 2" might help, but if it was buying one now for you purpose I would get the 3"...it is very firm and will give a better protection to that bar...you would think they would have invented something better for a sofabeds by now...

Hi Dan. it depends how thick your memory foam mattress is. if it is normal thick it should not be a problem. I have these thin Ikea mattresses (5 inch thick) and you can feel the slats under you... I need to put a set of special Ikea slats under my mattress so that it will be comfortable or double up on the thin mattress, then it is no problem. Hope this helps.

Sorry but you can't add firmness to a memory foam bed by adding this on top. You could add a piece of plywood underneath to see if that might help.

Probably this would be helpful, although it may not be enough. It allows for some good "give" when used in conjunction with a firm mattress.

Possibly...It really depends on the person's sleeping preferences. For the sofa sleeper, this provides a soft, but pliable feel - really taking away the feeling of the springs and crossbar design of the sofa sleeper.

Agree with other answers. We have a simple foam mattress and it is supported perfectly. Can take grown up weight.

I have this mattress on a metal platform instead of boxspring and it works fine. Keep in mind this mattress is REALLY heavy :(

I used these three metal slats to replace broken wooden slats on a bed that sounds similar to yours. I left in all the other wooden slats that were not broken. I can't imagine only having the 3 metal slats as support. I feel that the bed would sag and create back pain.

I would think it would certainly add quite a bit of softness. However, it feels like jell foam pockets and it probably wouldn't fill up where it dips down and make it level. It would have to be an improvement as it was a big improvement on an old mattress.

Probably not, the metal part that goes under the mattress is what holds the rail secured. The couch cushions might be too soft and the rail might not be set secure in place.

I would think you could use this since the support slats are close together and made of metal. The only issue I could see is if the mattress is heavy and the person sleeping on the mattress is heavy as well. I think the weight limit is something like 250 or 300 pounds.

That's a great question...and unfortunately it's not...and being on a sofa bed...where drinks & popcorn happens quite frequently that would be a good plus. It does add some comfort to our very thin mattress on our sofa bed...and as a precaution I have added a queen size waterproof mattress protector for about $25.00 on this site.

The short answer: no. My wife and I looked for a sleeper bed that we liked for months. After deciding that traditional sleeper sofas weren't for us (we find them generally ugly and uncomfortable) we settled on this one. It was a little more than we wanted to spend but we have really liked it so far. It opens up to give guests a lot of space and with a cheap foam topper it is pretty comfy if you like a firmer bed. This was the only one that we could find that had a click clack style back and a pull out leg part. I think if you want one that is fabric you may need to get a traditional one or get a cover. We've had ours now for 6 months and have really liked it.

Good morning Lori, I haven't actually slept on this cot however I did lay on it to see how confortable it was and one thing I did after my son slept on it for a few days was to put more foam inside the covering of the supplied mattress, I weigh 260 lbs so I guess it would support your guest, I hope this was benefifial to you.

We use it with just a mattress. There is a thin wooden platform that sets on top of the drawers to support the mattress. You may want a slightly more padded mattress for support, depending on who's going to sleep on it.

I am wondering if this would help a hide-a-bed. They are uncomfortable as a rule, but wonder if this 4" topper would make ours tolerable.
