Do you feel the horizontal bars? I know you are seperated in the middle, but can you feel the support bars that run horizontally?

Other than the long bar down the middle you can't feel any. There are no other bars going across perpendicular to that middle bar.

If you lay right on top of the divider bar, down the middle, yes. But if you lay to either side, it's very comfortable.

You can definitely feel it when there is nothing in there. I took others recommendation and added an air mattress and it was my best camping experience so far. I recently acquired a memory foam mattress topper that I plan to try out as I don't feel I need the full thickness of an air mattress to keep from feeling that bar.

I got it for my son, he does feel the bar across, he sleeps on one side and puts his clothes and stuff on the other side! I would buy a memory foam mattress for it, if I slept in it...

You cannot feel anything but the middle separation bar. I used a 1/2" sleeping pad to add a little comfort, and it was great.

Yes. The upper support bar of the ladder then becomes somewhat knee high (at least for me a woman 5'5") - but I find that feeling that bar against my legs helps me feel more secure until I proceed down a step and can hold the support bar again. This is why I like the ladder so much better than a regular style 2 or 3 or 4 step "step ladder." Just love this ladder!

When installed, the very tip of the horizontal supports measure 12 1/2 inches from the finished wall. The third 'dip' - the one furthest from the wall is centered appx. 9 inches from the wall - so beyond that, you still have 3 1/2 inches of support. Very satisfied with this product! Hope this helps!

The supports are folded down inside bottom of settee. You unzip on either end the open and pull down. The bed is very comfortable, firm and solid feel. You do not feel the bars at all

yes you probably can-- if you offset the supports away from each other by an inch.That should give you the results you want and it won't diminish the support structure.Hope this helps ~

There is very little lateral movement. I have a 5 ft kitchen bar with 2 of these at each end. Just make sure that you don't have a lateral stress during installation; otherwise they will not fold down the last 15 degrees. Overall they are very sturdy and its been a few months without any issues. Hope this helps

The bars are separate, and must be inserted at the last step of installation. If you pre-assemble the unit and place it on the wall where you want to install it, and then mark the center of each end bracket, it is not a problem to get it exactly where you want it. You really need the help of another person to make this an easy job. Use a level to make sure both brackets are placed correctly.

Hi Meg, We bought this mattress as a replacement for our sleeper sofa and we love it. You can still feel the metal bars slightly, but a thick piece of cardboard placed under the mattress did the trick. Hope this helps!

You mean horizontal support rails? This is a very sturdy piece, I've got several HDDs, a giant air cooler and expansions cards in there, no flexing!

No my husband only had to help with connecting the bars because I have a bqd shoulder. The only problem I had was finding shoes with some traction, your feet tend to slip off to the side. I love mine :-)

Yes. We had problems too. There is a front bar and a back bar. They are sized differently. Make sure you use the right ones in the right places.

Mine was the same way. The arms that hold the platform up are fairly flexible. A few inches of stretch (1 to 1.5 inches each way) is not bad at all. You can also work with the joins in the arms to see if you can position one of them with a tilt. I didn't need to. My Hyloft has been up for nearly 6 months and I am planning to install another one shortly.

It is possible, if you let the support bar go free the bench will decline. It's something I won't do myself, I wouldn't want to cause damage to the bench, you could try it without any weight and see how it feels to you.

Yes, there are 3 notches for the support bar. The middle one holds it level and the others hold it tilted up or down.

I have this mattress a loft bed that has many metal bars across for support and you cannot even feel them. This is a very nice supportive mattress.

In the middle. I've felt lighter, but I've also definitely felt much heavier ones. I don't have a scale. But it's definitely not noticeably heavy. I didn't even think to check until you asked.

I had trouble with the horizonal bar area. We only had one mattress on our platform bed.It didn't require a box spring. Look at the picture closely and that mattress comes up to the horizontal bar _ we had about a 3 inch gap, my pillow would slide right out the back.I really do like the frame. I taped some heavy foam board to the back and we're OK now.I don't think the up right bars will be a problem.
