From Donald -
I am having a Queen sized folding wallbed installed. The folding mechanism and cabinet accommodates both a mattress and box spring. I want to purchase a very high quality, very firm name brand mattress, prefer non-pillowtop. The following criteria are what need to be met to work with the wall bed:
• the maximum height combined that the box spring and mattress can be is 17″.
• the total weight combined that the box spring and mattress can be is 142lbs.
do you have any product recommendations you can make based upon this information? Please advise. Thank you in advance.
Hi Donald,
You have a few options based on your specifications:
You would definitely need to do the low profile box spring which is 5 1/4″ tall vs. the 9″ box spring. As far as the mattress goes you are then limited to 11.75″ or thinner.
I would recommend either the Sealy Posturepedic Eaglewood Cushion Firm or the Bryant Park Firm.
