Return To Futons Article Archive   Futons and Futon Covers Are Perfect for Any Room in Your Home By Amy-Jo Strutt One of the most versatile pieces of furniture in any home has to be the futon. If you need extra sleeping capacity when friends and family come for a visit, futons offer a great alternative to traditional beds. Although bunk beds and loft beds work well, you need a separate designated room for them. Futons on the other had can be found in the basement family room or upstairs great room and are disguised as a sofa. They are easily transformed to the perfect bed in seconds. Futon covers are also versatile as they can be changed to match the seasons making them a perfect decorating accessory. Futon mattresses in the past were often not that comfortable. But let me tell you, things have changed. The manufacturers have had to improve their mattresses so that they are comparable to traditional bed mattresses. They now offer comfortable and durable options. If your futons are going to be used daily for sleeping purposes, consider either Sealy's Posturepedic or Posture Lux 9 inch mattresses. For semi-regular use, an 8 inch mattress should do such as the Plush or Sealy Posture Form. For occasional use, an economy mattress such as the Deluxe 6 inch is a great option. Choosing the perfect futon covers is another story. There are literally hundreds of fabrics and colors to choose from. You can find a comprehensive selection of futon covers on line. We believe you will be surprised at the selection. You can choose from pattern styles, color, material and of course price. Every possible theme is available and as well as color. Material options include 100% cotton, canvas, denim, faux leather, silk and suede, velvet, poly/cotton blends and more. Make sure to choose something that is machine washable. Futons come in twin, full and queen sizes to suit any room. Check the wide selection on line but as an added convenience, we have carefully selected a few merchants below that offer quality products.
