Why Use a Futon Cover?
A futon cover surrounds the futon mattress and acts as the visible upholstery when the mattress is used on a convertible wood frame.
Because the mattress itself forms the seat and back of the futon sofa, changing the cover can dramatically change the appearance of the finished piece without replacing the mattress or frame.
Replace, Refresh or Restyle
A replacement futon cover can give an existing futon a new look when redecorating a room or when the original cover has become worn.
Different fabrics, colours, and textures make it possible to coordinate a futon with the rest of the room. This flexibility is particularly useful because futons are often used in living spaces, offices, guest rooms, and other areas where the bed also functions as furniture.
Choosing the Right Futon Cover
Fit is the first consideration when choosing a replacement cover. The cover needs to match the size and thickness of the futon mattress so it sits properly when the futon is both open and folded.
Material and care requirements are also important. Consider how frequently the futon will be used, whether it is primarily seating or a guest bed, and how easily you want to be able to maintain the fabric.
