can it be used for futon couch

Yes, it could be. One would fit a twin size bed so you may want to use two of them.

I purchased two for our Cal King bed. Sorry, I have no idea if it would work with a futon.

No it is to be used under a sofa bed mattress to eleminate the bar feeling. I used it once and really it does not help. Never used it again.

I don't think this one would work for a couch. The wood goes more than halfway across a standard mattress, and the strap goes around the bed frame.. I did see others advertised on Amazon, one of those May work,.

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.

Yes, my futon mattress slides forward all the time if I have it in couch mode, but is mainly used as a spare bed, works great for that. If you want to keep it in couch mode all the time, I would suggest getting some sort of non-slip mat or non-slip material to put under futon, that might hold it in place or some wood pieces at each end to hold ends of futon to keep from moving forward. Good Luck. I am going to try some non-slip material when in couch mode, I'll see what happens

I doubt you can use this with a couch. It is held in place by the pressure of a mattress against a small disk.

It would depend on how long the couch is and how wide the arms are. As it was not made for this purpose, I would suggest looking at slip covers for your couch.

This has held up okay as a couch albeit very hard. I do not think this should be sold/used as a futon. It lays flat but the two parts are not of this same thickness and therefore the surface is uneven. Unfortunately, I did not realize this until a couple months after purchase when someone was to sleep on it.

I think it will. I use this box spring in my wooden 4 poster frame beneath a 14 inch memory foam mattress and it works great. It depends on the thickness of your futon I suspect.

We've had it for a while and one thing is: it has gotten very flattened out and lumpy in certain areas. So I'd say it would be alright to use on a futon if you're not going to be sitting/sleeping on it every night. Right now we've had to fold it in half to sleep on to offset the flattened areas. On the other hand it's economic.

I'm not sure if a spring mattress is flexible enough to use in any way other than flat. But it seems like someone who sells mattresses would be able to answer that. I would check with them. But just so you know, the futon mattress I have on mine is 8" thick and uses queen size sheets, so size wise it seems like it would work.

I bought the twin size version of this frame but I personally do not think it would be the right type of frame to fold and use as a couch. Futon frames fold more like an open clam shell while this frame would fold more like an 'L'.

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.

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.

It probably can be used on a sofa bed, but would not nearly be as safe. It uses the box spring for stability. I would not advise it. Andrew Wright (occupational therapist)

It's made for a futon, so I would think it does. I only use mine as a queen mattress for my toyhauler. But is wonderfully comfortable.

i doubt that it will fold up easily in a futon. it will work as a bed - but it's really thick and would be nearly impossible to fold. i think the same company makes a thinner mattress though - that might work.

Yes, I used it to replace the back cushions on my ecktorp Ikea sofa. It is very firm. For the seats you will need a thicker piece or double the pieces.
