Better Foam Futon Mattresses Denser Wood Futon Frames Dave at our retail store says that futons are like Italian cooking: "The recipes are simple; it's the quality of the ingredients that makes all the difference."

Since 1988 we have only sold the finest futon frames, futon mattresses, and futon covers. In Futon Basics, you will find all the information regarding the different ingredients that are the basis of the futon furniture we sell.

First, the futon frame. The frame is the foundation of the futon and where it all begins. A futon frame's important attributes are strength, durability, ease of conversion from couch to bed and back, and looks. A quality futon frame will be made of a strong, dense wood which will withstand the stress of conversion. It will be made with quality and pride and look good anywhere in the house: the living room, family room, home office, etc. Read more about the qualities of a good futon frame here.

The futon frame provides the foundation, and the futon mattress provides the comfort. It is important to remember that the futon frame does not provide any comfort. All your comfort comes from the futon mattress. If you've ever sat on a hard, uncomfortable futon couch, it is because the futon mattress was old, hard, lumpy and misshapen.

WebFuton.com features only feature hi-tech foam futon mattresses which last for years and will never have the problems -- lumpiness, hardness, etc. -- associated with inferior cotton and foam futons. Our futon mattresses are designed to retain their comfort and last longer than any traditional futon mattresses sold today. You can read more about our futon mattresses here.

The final part of the futon is the futon cover. The futon cover is primarily decorative but it also serves the very important function of protecting the mattress from dirt and spills. We have a large selection of great patterns, soft solids and many others to choose from. Click here to see your cover options.
