Dimensions (edit)
When choosing a mattress, it is very important that its dimensions fit perfectly with the dimensions of the sofa. The greater thickness will be rather a disadvantage, since it will interfere with twisting for more convenient storage, in addition, they become not so convenient for use.
There are optimal, in the opinion of experts and users, dimensions. The folding mattress is 2-9 centimeters thick. Some believe that very thin products are much less comfortable, but otherwise it's a matter of taste... The length can be 190 or 200 centimeters. As for the width, this indicator can be completely different.
It is believed that a standard mattress has dimensions of 190x90 centimeters. However, 190x135, 190x160 cm are no less popular.Such products are perfect for one person, and for wide sofas it is better to dwell on a different indicator, for example, a corner size is suitable for a size of 200x180 cm.
In the case when the sofa has non-standard dimensions, it may be necessary to tailor the mattress to order. It is better to pay maximum attention to this issue, because an error in dimensions can lead to the fact that the product is not very comfortable for sleeping.

Regardless of what kind of furniture is installed in the house, choosing a mattress is a serious matter. It does not matter whether this attribute is required for a sofa-book, "accordion", "dolphin", spring, springless or any other.
In this matter, attention should be paid to reviews. The easiest way to evaluate such a thing is if it is available from someone you know. You can not only get an independent assessment, but also personally test it. In stores, this is usually much more difficult.

For babies under the age of 3 and pregnant women, experts recommend choosing mattresses with coconut filling. It is absolutely safe even for newborns. Double-sided models become an excellent option, hard on one side and softer on the other. They will last longer than conventional counterparts.
And you should first of all consider the possibility of buying goods from well-known brands. As a rule, established manufacturers take a more serious look at the quality of their products. A poor quality mattress can be harmful, and buying it will turn out to be a real disappointment and a waste of money.
