I have to admit, I was skeptical after reading some reviews but decided to purchase this mattress to see if it would be good for my camper. I have a Sprinter van conversion and my bed is the back bench seat that lies flat for sleeping. It is not uncomfortable at all but after 4 years, I wanted a little more cushion so I ordered this mattress since I would be able to roll it up and put it away when the bed is not in use.When I first opened it and took it out of the packaging, I was a little concerned, it seemed like the foam cushion in the center was bulked up in the middle and one side of the mattress seem shorter than the other. I let it lie on my bed in the AM since there was no sun and after several hours no change- then I took it outside to get some sunshine- and it completely changed even after only a few hours. It fluffed up and became even on both sides. Interesting that the sun helped this mattress “bloom” for lack of a better word.I can already tell this will be a perfect topper for my camper bed for more comfort.The mattress edges after 4 hours in the sun is about 2-3/4” thick and the center seems to be about the same. I cannot imagine it will get any thicker at this point , but after this short time in the sun, I am pleased with the quality of this mattress. It will be perfect for my needs.Very glad we purchased this, it's made for a near perfect sleeping option.If there is one complaint, it's the storage bag which is super cheaply made and starts falling apart immediately. The zippers bust on the bag, the seams fall apart. Eventually the bag will just get thrown out. Due to this we can't give it five stars but it's a great option if you are in the market for a floor mattress as long as you don't intend to take it with you as the storage bag will fail.I read the reviews and what they said about the mattress being a little lumpy is true. I've slept on it about 5-6 times now in my camper and the lumps haven't gotten a lot better. After you roll it up a few times and sleep on it I no longer feel the lumps. The carrying case you put the mattress in fell apart after one use. It's a very thin material and ripped from end to end when packing it the first time I used it. Pretty disappointing given how much this was.I absolutely love this, my husband has chronic back pain and his complaints have subsided. He's a back sleeperI'm a side sleeper or belly sleeper, so it hurts my lower back, I like to keep one leg up while I sleep.For those who sleep like me, I'd suggest some extra cushioning like a pillow top cover, but back sleepers should do really really well on this particular futon.I purchased this for my daughter’s one bedroom apt. so I could visit. its nice quality, but it is too thin for this old lady who likes a softer bed. I purchased an air mattress and used this as a topper and it worked perfectly. I slept comfortably for 5 days on this topper.Medium quality, comfortable, color and size exactly as advertisedFinal Updated Review: My husband convinced me to do a replacement first and see if we get the same issues. It arrived promptly, but in a completely different color than what we chose (teal -> gray). Am I going to deal with returning again for that? No, but I will dock a star for that, because it is just one more thing that went wrong with this order. So we laid it out again to let it fluff up and did not touch it for 24 hours. Fluffed up decently, about 4 inches high. We put the cover they provided on. So far, the kids find it comfy and I have not seen any damage to the fabric like with our first one. One thing I didn't mention before is that it comes tightly rolled in a flimsy black bag. Both bags were ripped upon arrival, where the zipper is. They also provide you a travel bag of the same material for the futon, but I don't have faith in its durability. The bags feel like they are made of reusable shopping bags, the paper-y kind. I still have reservations on how long this futon will last, but for now, the replacement has held up. I've said all I can say about this product. If it falls apart on me in a month, I won't be surprised. But here's hoping it defies my skepticism. Wishing you a better experience! (Returning the first one was easy with Amazon's drop-off sites. We just brought the giant rolled up mattress to Kohl's. Thank goodness for that because there was no way we were squeezing it back into its original packing box!)Original review: We received it and unpacked it immediately so that our kids could use it as soon as possible. (We did not use it, we unpacked and laid it out per vendor instruction to allow it to fluff up.) It was well packaged and began to puff up right away, but it is still not as thick as the picture. The turquoise color is lovely, but we did notice a one-inch tear in the fabric (picture shown) after it had puffed up. The material is thin, feels like cotton sheets. I checked the stitching all around and that seems secure. The tear is disappointing since this cost nearly $200, but I guess I will just patch it up because the children have already fallen in love with it. Hopefully, the extra cover they provided will prevent further damage. Even though it is not as thick as I expected, it is comfy. If there had been no tear, I would have given 5 stars based on price, delivery, and fairly accurate product description. But still, the cost is high enough that I can't overlook the damage in the item.Update on Original Review: Day TWO, three more frayed holes. We have no pets. We laid it on the carpet. All I did was take the edges to fluff it a few times throughout the evening. The holes appeared on the bottom part of futon. I had wanted to just patch it, and count it as a loss, but this is too ridiculous. We are returning it. I am really disappointed.Purchase a better one somewhere else.The product does what it is made for.Based on the material, this made in China product is priced too high – may be double than what it should be. If I was buying this from a store and get to see & touch it, I wouldn’t be buying it at this price.Not sure how Amazon determines the price of a product before they let someone sell stuff in their site. People would soon loose confidence on Amazon if this continues to go on. The rating is based on the products price.Product claims to expand after unpacking and left out in sunlight. This never happened, even after 2 days. It’s a thin piece of foam. Really disappointed
