I do like futons and often when we go on holiday and stay at hotels, I won't enjoy the bed. With that in mind, we visited a bed fair late last year and found a really nice mattress called Air Loop. The middle layer is made from loads of recycled fishing line bunched up to make it springy. It felt really good but we moved and so kept the futons a while longer. My wife recently found out about Koala mattresses. It's an Australian company and offers a 120-day, 100% returns policy so we decided to try them. The mattress arrives vacuum packed and all you do is open it, let the mattress flop out and wait a little while. Also, you get a koala teddy bear in the box!
So far we've had two lovely nights' sleep and don't miss our futons(or the annoying gap in between). It's a queen size(170x195cm) and actually takes up a bit less room than the two single futons it replaced(180x205cm) despite feeling wider. Just need to buy a nice base as we're using it on the floor right now.

It's latex and foam so it bends in the middle, though at king size it's really heavy and hard to manage on my own...
Yes I wrote that to be exceptionally rude but point is these mattresses are more flexible than those with springs so you can bend them round corners rather easily. Funny thing is we measured the bed and checked it was flat packed for assembly and then the mattress arrived and we were like.... Fark!!!
Luckily the firm we bought through we great and we got a full refund so we started quickly looking at alternatives. Koala and Ecosa are top brands, there's a few more but these are great. Here's mine:

However, for research purposes, when you try and take it out the house again, could you film it?
And maybe add The Spanish Flea as backing music?

Like, this weird tw@t has been "at large" in that twelve year intervening period. Can't get my head around it.
Damn, guy never seemed to use physical violence but he caused a guy to run out and die on a traintrack.
Scary!!!
