As you may have noticed, UrbanFutonbeds.com does not feature this type of tri fold futon frame love seat. The futon frame love seats that are featured on the site have a built in ottoman extension piece. In order for the mattress to fit on the frame, the mattress in a love seat size will come in two pieces. One piece is the seating cushion part and the second piece of the mattress is for the ottoman. When the ottoman is not in use, the second part of the futon mattress can be stored behind the frame.
The reason we do not feature these types of frames is because they are not as popular as they once used to be. Aesthetically, they do not look too appealing either with the mattress either folded where the seat cushion is or either the other half of the mattress hangs off the back cascading.
As you can see in the picture above how the mattress rests on the frame. If you are looking for a replacement futon mattress with this type of frame, you have three choices. First, you have to get a cotton based mattress and not a foam futon mattress. The reason for this is because the foam futon mattress can not bed as easily. The three different futon mattresses that will work for this type of frame are either the 4" all cotton, the 6" all cotton or the 6" single foam and cotton. The best choice would be the 6" single foam with cotton futon mattress by Gold Bond. Having at least a single layer of foam is better because the mattress will have more flexibility and won't develop as many loose creases. Any mattress thicker than than six inches simply won't work well because it will be too hard to bend on this type of frame.
