The Ameriwood Eight Inch Independently-Encased Coil Premium Futon Mattress is a mattress with a long name and a relatively small price. As may be expected by the name, it is a futon mattress, and as such can be folded and used as a futon sofa, or left flat and used like any other mattress. As a bed, it will easily fill out a full size sheet set and can be used on a bed frame or by itself on the floor.
I spent months sleeping on a pretty pricy air mattress before it (predictably) sprang a leak. I didn't want another air mattress, but I couldn't afford much with a college student's budget.

My husband and I bought this Futon Mattress in Nov. 2011. It's Feb. 2012 now and the mattress is used everyday as our living room seating. It's still comfortably firm and supporting, it hasn't sagged or broken. I did have to order a futon cover as the fabric used is a big problem since I have an orange cat and the hair is nearly impossible to get off with a vacuum, but other than that this was worth every penny. We've had family come visit and sleep on it and they had no complaints of comfort. I would definitely recommend this Futon Mattress to anyone who's looking to buy one.
We bought this frame along with the mattress :

It's American Made, you do have to put it together yourself, but it's strong and goes perfectly with the mattress.
