Futon (and futon accessory) shopping
The Futon Store is a great little spot! I just discovered it, but will definitely go back (as well as recommend to friends). I wandered in there looking for a futon mattress cover (which I found, and am loving so far – great quality, looks very nice on my spare-room futon), and ended up browsing for WAY longer than I intended! I was amazed by all of the futons they had (different types of frames, tons of different kinds of wood, etc.), as well as the incredible selection of mattresses (different materials, varying thickness and firmness, different patterns). Some of them are more comfortable than my living room couches at home! They also have bed frames and other pieces of furniture that can be bought at the store or ordered to match the futon that you choose. The prices seemed competitive (I paid about what I expected for my cover, and the furniture was priced along the lines of what I would expect as well). I’ll definitely keep this place in mind if and when I purchase another futon.
