I had no idea a futon mattress has many parts. Just look at these:
* 
Futon Barrel Nuts
* Futon Dowel Nuts
* Futon Bolts
* Futon Glides
* Futon Rollers
* Futon Carriage Blocks
* Plastic Fittings
* Futon Brackets
* Futon Stretcher Rails
* Futon Cross Rails
* Futon Back Decks
* Futon Seat Decks
* Futon Slats
* Futon Slat Supports
* Futon Stress Supports
* Futon Screws
* Futon Nuts
* Futon Brackets
* Futon Arm Rests
* Futon Swing Blocks
* Futon Dowels
* Futon Clevis Pins
* Futon Cotter Pins
* Misc. futon parts
Futon breaking is caused by either negligence, overuse, over-tightening or not enough knowledge about how things work with a futon.
If you’ve got a broken futon and can take care of fixing it, you can shop for parts here.

Defining different types of mattress pads
0 Comments Published by Lilian August 23rd, 2008 in MATTRESS Shopping, MATTRESS Tips.
Confused about the different types of mattress pad in the market? Here’s a brief definition:
| Guaranteed to fit (GTF) | A fitted skirt made from a stretchy fabric like spandex or a knit designed to fit a specific depth mattress. |
| Wrap pad | This type extends over the edge and down the sides of the mattress. A thin elastic thread is attached to hold pad in place. |
| Extra deep | Designed with Lycra® or spandex to fit securely over the deepest mattress. |
| Fitted pad | Covers the top and sides of a mattress, resembling a fitted sheet with an elastic skirt. And a quilted top for added comfort. |
| Anchor pad | Covering only the top of the mattress, this mattress pad has an elastic band in each corner, making it the least secure and usually the least expensive. |
| Pillow-top pad | Adds a pillow-top feel to a regular mattress. And it can also rejuvenate an older mattress. |

Ambient mattress pad contains what the manufacturers call Holofiber, a fabric that supposedly benefits quality sleep. Holofiber works to stimulate blood flow and help with circulation and speedy recovery. If you’re suffering from muscle fatigue, this pad should be very effective.
