Rock and roll bed mattress
Has anyone bought the foam mattress from jk? If so how comfortable are they?
Don't really want the faff of having to carry a memory foam topper with me everywhere. Was thinking of getting a king foam mattress from ikea and cutting it into sections to use with the rock and roll bed as I know there pretty comfortable as used one in the past.

Re: Rock and roll bed mattress
Thanks for the replys. Just want a decent comfortable bed/ cushions without having to pay the added scene tax! Currently dragging the spare mattress out of the house every time we go camping. Alright is a lovely nights sleep it a total ball ache not to mention dragging the extra weight around everywhere!

Use an electric bread knife to cut foam and let it cut rather than force it through.

Our local bed store has roll up mattrasses 140 x 200 x 10cm for 40 yoyos, too thin or ?

Re: Rock and roll bed mattress
I used 4" Blue foam from here:

The big sheet did the whole rock n' roll + the back cushion with plenty spare.

How thick did you go with the foam and was it like to sleep on?

Re: Rock and roll bed mattress
It’s the 4” (10cm) thick stuff and to be honest it’s dead comfy. The blue foam if the firmest one. We tend to put a 1” memory foam topper over when we sleep but it’s not strictly necessary (my wife prefers it).

Re: Rock and roll bed mattress
Hey! I'm looking at getting some foam cut right now for this exact purpose. I've heard before that the blue foam is a bit too firm for sleeping, but suits sitting. Is that the general consensus or is this just subjective? I may need to add the extra layer of memory foam as suggested above if so.
I'm looking here btw if anybody's familiar? Open to suggestions on elsewhere though.

I stuck one-inch memory to three-inch yellow foam. And had covers made to fit.
