Full Futon Mattress

The number one complaint about full futon mattresses is not that they are uncomfortable but that they keep sliding down on the frame. Either the frame itself has a slick surface or the mattress is brand new. There are several products on the market that claim to combat this problem.

One of them is called gripper strips - you stick one roll on to the front edge of your futons seat, and stick the other roll on the top of the back deck of your futon, the adhesive keeps the strip from moving. The top of the gripper strip is made of foam, which holds the futon mattress in place by creating resistance between the foam and the futon mattress cover material.

Another solution is to purchase rug stopper, this is just a simple rug stopper material that you can get at any department store, furniture store or your local futon store. You just lay the rug stopper material under your mattress and it stops it from sliding, much like it does for rugs.

There is one product that totally eliminates the need to ever touch your futon mattress again (*except to flip it) it is called the Futon Mattress Strap. The Futon mattress strap is an easy, inexpensive solution to your problem. The Form Fitter mattress strap is made of rugged 1 inch wide nylon webbing along with durable plastic buckles – it is made to last a lifetime.
 
You will love how the Futon Mattress Strap tucks neatly in the crease of your mattress, you never see it and it keeps your futon and home looking great.  The strap installs across the length of the full futon mattress.  It takes about 10 minutes to install the strap and your mattress is secured in place.

The Futon Mattress Strap works on almost everything from Chairs to full futon mattress - as well as queen size mattresses.

* Manufacturers do recommend that you flip your futon mattress regularly - this will extend the life of your futon mattress as well as help it to wear evenly.
