one last question please, how thick is the mattress you sit on and what type of foam, cotton or polyester fill is in it or do you know? If you don't know what its made of how hard or soft is the sit?

The mattress is medium thickness, but kind of hard and goes flat easily. I would honestly spend the money and get a better couch/futon. It's what I had to end up doing!

Wow, RS, thank you so much for starting this thread. I'm allergic to most polyester fill and fabric (asthma and contact dermatitis) and was thinking of buying it only because they stated it was 100% cotton shell and fill. All cotton is hard to find at this sale price so I was going to buy it as a back up to my current one that's really held up well in 1.5 decades of use.

This is not a foam mattress topper. It is polyester and is about 2 inches thick. I hate foam toppers. They are too hot for me.

It's not soft as normal mattress. That's the reason I got this one. I had been searching for a mattress that is firm enough to relieve my back pain. I used to get a platform made of several pieces of hard wood and put a comforter (made of cotton) on it. That was very firm and sometimes can be a little bit uncomfortable. This one is thick with good balance between softness and firmness. When it came, it was a little bit too puffy that I thought. But it gets better after some days. It is stuffed with cottons and very heavy. I'm satisfied with the quality of this mattress and would recommend to anyone who is looking for a mattress that is good to your back.

The mattress isn't firm. It is on the softer. My mattress filled up pretty quickly, but didn't completely fill out the sheet for a day or so. When it was fully set, it was much thicker than expected.

It is made of a dense foam (no coils) - it only states the cotton cover is organic, so would assume the foam is not. However, it did not have any chemical odors when I unwrapped it. The foam is a much more dense, (seemingly) higher quality than what came with the portable crib I purchased - firm, not a lot of give, but still soft feeling. Plus the organic cover seems to be of high quality. My grandson sleeps soundly on it. Note that the mattress cover is not waterproof. I purchased an organic cotton waterproof mattress cover to go over it and then covered all with an organic cotton portable crib sheet.

Hi this is super old so I don't know if you'll see it, but Phoenix over at Mattress Underground really knows his stuff about mattresses and what to do in this situation. He's got a great long standing forum that covers everything you've ever wanted to know and more about mattresses and toppers and materials. ( I know this sounds like I'm a paid shill, but I'm not... I swear. :) I've just had really good luck over there when I've had questions of this sort.)

It is cotton with layers of dense foam. I sleep like a baby on it. Much better than I expected. I bought 9 inch. Very happy with this product

We bought a mattress similar to what you describe and it had several layers of memory foam on the top. It was not firm enough for us, We turned it over and it is much better. We also bought the foam you mention. I already answered that it wasn't as firm as we were led to believe. Our piece had no cover,cracked easily when rolled up. Both our purchases were from Amazon but to send these products back just is not worth the effort. They are not typical of the many things we have bought from Amazon. My conclusion to answer your question is " it wouldn't be firm enough for us".

Pretty thick, no clue what kinda foam. the only issue from a sitting perspective is enough back pillows and them moving around a bit - but pretty easy to resolve. The bottom cushion that you sit/sleep on is thick and nice.

This memory foam mattress is very very firm....I am looking to get either a topper or a regular real mattress to put on top...

Im 235 and its too soft for me. I just sold mine for $100 because my back started to hurt. I tried to contact customer service first, but they won't do anything for you until the mattress starts to sag over 1". I did purchase a great mattress from Costco thought, being Costco, I can return/exchange it at any time for any reason. Its a firm luxury and I am sleeping well now. My wife is 125, she was fine with the Lucid.

I love mine. I helps me, but I have to tell you that it is not the only thing I have on there. It is about 4" thick. I also have a padded mattress cover over it, so between the two my bed is soft, but firm. The only problem I have now is having sheets that will stay on it. I am going to try some sheet clips and see if that helps. I hope this helps you.

I not sure of the thickness and density of each layer. I not home now, but I will attempt to find out for you around 7PM Eastern time, and I will get back with you at that time. When lying on the mattress it feels very thick though.
