This mattress is very, very cushy. I wish something like this was around the first time I had a futon, approximately 25-30 years ago when I ditched an air mattress and got my first piece of furniture. Now this is being used for a guest bed. The only downside is that it doesn't want to seem to bend enough to be folded into the couch position, which is what it will be 98% of the time. Right now I'm laying in the middle of it hoping that I can "train" it enough so that it will bend and I can finish assembling my guest area.
