They are typically 36" by 72".
it depends on what size futon and bed you have. most dont
Mine measures 52 x 76in. That's about average, I would think.
The best size for this futon would be a full. Anything large would not be supported by the frame.
A futon would be better as it can double as a sofa.
Beats me!
I had a futon bed frame (one that does not fold up). The futon mattress wore out and I wanted something better for my back. I bought a queen size mattress (no box spring) and have been using it like that for two years. It works great and no one knows the difference.
You can go into the Internet and search on eBay or amazon to buy a full size futon mattress. Also you can go to a shopping centre where they sell beds and look around to find one there.
For an average quality futon, you should be able to get a pretty good deal. I'd say that you should expect a price around $200.
The average futon is five feet long. There are two sides, plus extra for the ends. This means that you will need at least 3 yards of 60 inch wide fabric for a small futon cover.

The length of time it takes to build an IKEA futon varys slightly depending on the skills of the builder and the specific model of the futon. However, futons are similarly built and thus one can expect building time to average about 30 to 60 minutes.
I recently purchased a brand new futon and I am so disappointed. I tried sleeping on it and it was so uncomfortable, I could not even fall asleep. It made my back hurt. I would recommend trying to find a store where you can sit or lay on the futon first before actually buying.
