Odd question, but does a recommendation on where to buy a Shiki Futon - Japanese futons.
Slept in them in Japan and they were pretty comfy.
So far, if I just google it - Jlife international seems like the only viable choice

Let me give you another option. I sleep on;

very comfortable and works well. Just a note, takes about 3-4 days to firm up and reach full comfort after you unpack it. And if you don't like it you can take it back easily.

I saw those when I was ikea recently, are you able to roll it up and store it when it's not used?
Seems like you are ok with sleeping on it though - thanks for feedback

yeah roll em up and use some luggage straps to keep em rolled up. they're very light weight and i use them to sleep on full time. I find it more comfortable than a spring mattress. The also come with a zip cover that you can open up and put in some memory foam from walmart or something if you so chose but I just use it stock.
