Originally from Japan, futons have become increasingly popular in Western countries due to their versatility and space-saving capabilities. Futon beds are typically made of a frame, a mattress, and a cover. The mattress is usually made of cotton or foam and can vary in thickness depending on the desired comfort level. Futon beds can also consist of just a mattress, which is sometimes known as a mattress topper.
Futon beds are an excellent option for those living in small apartments or limited space. They offer a dual functionality that allows the same piece of furniture to serve as a sleeping area and a place to relax during the day. Additionally, futons are generally more affordable than traditional beds or sofas, making them a practical choice for those on a budget. With a wide range of styles, materials, and sizes available, there is a futon bed to suit almost any taste or space requirement. Here are the 10 best futon beds in Malaysia.
