2022 I want to be the year of trying new things! Never did I think I would start that by throwing my mattress away. I can say, if you've been curious to try it, it's worth it & hopefully if you've been a bit unsure of the reality of it this may help.
Tiny apartments can be tricky, but I think approaching this minimalist bed has been really interesting. I'm no means a minimalist person (if you look at my desk area.. you know), but I feel more mindful when i'm making my bed and preparing for sleep. It's almost a taste of what that is like.
If you have any questions about what sleeping on a futon is like please let me know in the comments!

I've slept directly on a carpeted hardwood floor for the past 25 years. I love the firmness, which, I believe, helped nearly eliminate my lower back issues and has given me a deeper, more satisfying sleep. From time-to-time, I'll switch to a Lazy Boy in the middle of the night. I don't use a blanket and have used two firm, rectangular throw pillows in place of pillows. In the morning, I leave no trace behind, and the space is used for other activities.

I highly recommend using this with a tatami mat underneath! It stops the mattress from getting damp and risking mold because the tatami at absorbs the moisture and keeps it dry. Also it’s waayyy more comfy with the mat :) and it’s rly good for your back! I had the futon+tatami mat when I moved to Seattle for 6 months! I miss it

Man! I did this a little over two years ago. It started bc I think my mattress was too old and my back & hips were in so much pain. While I wouldn’t recommend it for everyone, I will say for me in 6 months my back pain went away and my posture started to improve. 🤷‍♀️ My family thought I was crazy… I had family come into town and the people who slept on it said it was actually comfortable. 😂 “Don’t sound so shocked!” 😂 I get it though it’s very out of the norm. I personally get a kick out of doing things unconventionally.😌

I have the opposite problem 😂 . We live in an old (for Japan) japanese house with several tatami rooms (wa-shitsu) and we do everything to cover them with rugs or vinyl flooring to avoid cat scratching, chairs marks, coffee spills etc. Tatami rooms in Japan tend to have a giant oshi-ire (cupboard) that’s super deep so you can fold the futon during the day time. That’s also great for when the step family is visiting, we have space for everyone to sleep. You also want to hang the futons outside in a sunny spot to kill acariens from time to time (fairly normal here, but maybe not super convenient in a small flat in a big western city haha)

We just switched 2 days ago to 2 twin size futons and got rid of the queen bed and mattress. I really love it so far and am surprised how sound I sleep. I would really love a beautiful cabinet or armoire to put everything into during the day, but I can’t find anything deep enough. I was super guilty of lounging in bed during the day, but now with everything folded up, I can’t do that anymore which is a huge pro for me.

I threw out my mattress in 2020 and ever since have been sleeping the floor. I’ve had variations of my floor sleeping ranging from one comforter under me and a few blankets to one sateen sheet under me with a large comforter on top. Now my latest variation which is the best one thus far is nothing under me with an elevation leg pillow to help with pressure ulcers on my heels because oh man I was getting them like crazy every night floor sleeping. And also I have a weighted blanket on top of me to make me feel secure. Then I’ll add a good quality wool blanket for the winter months. I’ll tell ya my back and my whole body feel a lot more stabilized through the day along with my posture being is upright. I recently bought a bed for the times when I do crave a bed but I end up tossing and turning. But when I sleep on the floor I stick to one position, on my back. Maybe a little side sleeping but it’s nothing like the bed where I constantly toss and turn every minute. I’m definitely enjoying floor sleeping for now. I don’t know if I’ll need floor sleeping as a 80 year old but for now I like it.

I got to start sleeping on the floor because my son broke my bed. So I just put the mattress on the floor. After a month I changed the expensive 20cm mattress to a 10cm cheapest IKEA one that we had at home by chance... After a week I told my husband that I am never gonna sleep on a bed again and I wait for him to sleep on the floor one day😁 Backpain is gone. The flat floor supports your bones so your muscles do not need to balance every move you make while you have the little of softness and isolation of the mattress. I do not feel in the morning like the bed has soaked me in during the night, may it be comfortable according to all standards. Just get up. Plus all the pros (and cons) mentioned in the video. Also dreaming of a tatami and real foldable futon. I am sure I will get one one day. Have a nice day!💕

The thing about bedrooms is, they are meant for sleeping. Using it as a workspace adds stress in the room. I know you may not have another place for it, but the living area might be a better spot for it if possible. Without a tatami mat, that essential oil diffuser is a bad idea because of mold. Overall though, I think it's great and much better for our bodies to sleep on a harder surface. Traditional American bedding is essentially an orthotic that our bodies conform to causing all sorts of misalignments of the joints which leads to pain and arthritic conditions. Many cultures around the world sleep on the ground or wooden platforms and they don't suffer from back problems etc.

​@andreaholcock8992 "floor bed" the key word is bed. A bed is a frame. So the mattress would be on the ground instead of a bed, which is where the cushioning you're talking about comes in. But also, I thought sleeping on hard surfaces is better for your back? How do you usually sleep?

I'm still using it! It's definitely a space saver which is awesome. It is a little more upkeep with having to keep the floors regularly clean since you sleep so low. But the reality is I don't pack up my futon all the time and I get a little lazy some weeks which is okay too ;) If you like to study / work on a bed, the futon (when set as a bed) may not be the most comfortable, unless you're used to work on the floor or with a low table since it gives you a different kind of support while sitting. New apartments are always exciting - good luck!

You could have just replaced your bed slats with plyboard and placed your futon over it. Bed Slats just don't provide the proper support no matter how good or expensive, they will always sag along with the weight of the mattress.

Sleeping on the ground is just fucking nice for some reason.....Nobody knows why. You could also try getting rid of youre bed stands and just out the frame on the ground. Maybe its something like sleeping high. You can also see if you can buy a high bed so thta you have room under it.

Adding a Tatami below the Futon looks like a good idea in terms of hygiene and breathability but wouldn't that be a handicap in terms of space, which was one of the reasons and benefits on take this floor sleeping aproach firstly?

Are there things to look out for when getting a tatami? Must they be the super expensive actual japanese kind or do the Chinese polyester knockoffs on Amazon work fine?

I've been scrolling through the comments but am not finding the link or a description of rht futon you feature here. I'm in Canada and been spending a LOT of time googling and still have no clue what to get. Could you post that link for us? thanks

hi! the futon I have is from Nejfuton, but they are made in Europe (where I am located) so i'm not sure it helps your search so much. In my new video I also have a new futon from Nejfuton with some latex filling if you're curious of the differences. good luck :)

I saw your window frame it's something different from Indian window. Can you tell me something about your window.. i.e. Which brand. It's really quality. And seems it has a rubber sealing too... Alpesh Soni from India. Transcript 6.18

I used the rocker prior to baby delivery when I was up in the middle of the night due to heartburn and loved it! Little one is now 6 days old and loves the rocker kzbin.infoUgkxXH3jIpsn6vpr3D26KWAriUejh7CSxVp7 , she gets great sleep when used. I had a 1st degree tear repair so sitting can be very uncomfortable and down right painful when the rx mortin wears off, however even then the rocker is firm enough for support but soft enough to feel comfortable. I'm 4'9" so I fit in the chair easily and my 6"3' friend also can sit comfortably in it with a little one. 💖 I would definitely recommend this rocker as a must have for any parent to be👍
