It's funny to me that the interior construction is so simple, just layer after layer of cotton batting, and somehow Japanese futon beds have proven better than any western mattress I've ever slept on. With the really thick ones, you don't even need a pillow. Truly amazing.

@Futonbedsfromjapan1 Год назад

It is actually deceptively simple. Over the generations futon masters have learned how to install cotton so that it sheds moisture properly and re-fluff's better. Also in traditional Japanese futon the bulk of the cotton is placed where your bodyweight is and they taper out towards the edges. This keeps the futon light for proper hanging care, and also helps the futon shed moisture. There are actually many nuanced differences that make Japanese futon superior to what of often found on the market. (However, of course, futon masters are rarely eager to share their own personal tricks to making great futon.) Also, one extremely important component to our exceptional futon is extremely high grade cotton. Most futon makers -- even here in Japan -- are unwilling to use this grade of cotton due to its high cost.

@kizzykhajiit Год назад

@@Futonbedsfromjapan1are traditionally made futon better then modern Japanese futon, wi' cotton + foam cores? I have the type & feel it went flat awfy fast, so I sleep on 2 flat futon, wi' two pillows te pad oot the flattened centre part.

@Futonbedsfromjapan1 3 года назад

@@lB-D Thank you for your interest. Generally speaking shikibuton are more firm than western style beds. While cotton shikibuton do compress over time, they can be softened by adding cushioning underneath if needed. You can make them as soft or firm as you wish based on the surface you place them on.

@teripittman Месяц назад

I just bought a twin. Shipped amazingly fast! I have had three other futons. Try to get an all cotton one. The ones that have foam always make my back hurt, even if they start out feeling fine. This is at least twice as thick as my other cotton one, very comfortable. Quality is excellent. I would definitely buy from them again. I will say that their twin is a little bit narrower than my other one. (The company that made my original all cotton one has changed to foam and cotton. Too bad).

@eliananyanya 3 года назад

Is this the only company that sells authentic, high quality, & Japanese-made futons? I am skeptical to purchase from Amazon and other large sites because I want to support Japanese master crafters and from a place that ensures that they are properly compensated for their efforts.

Hello Song Mei, thank you for your interest and for taking the time to comment. We have searched online and have not found any that are truly authentic despite their claims of "Japanese style" futon (which should be a hint when they say "style"). We are very confident that you will not find truly authentic Japanese shikibuton on Amazon or similar. We are truly a family run business with 3rd & 4th generation craftspersons making our product. Our product is made in Kochi, Japan and we are still shipping abroad, not problem.

As is so often proven, you definitely get what you pay for. These are hand-made and take a lot of time to manufacture. Nobody in the Japanese traditional futon business is getting rich! lol!!

For their family it has been a way of life for 3 generations.

How much does the double futon weigh when all finished. The site says 15 pounds of padding for the double 4.5" bed. --- some other American site says 40 pounds for a double 3". How can that be? -- I need to learn what is going on that is different or if there is a mistake. Thank you so much for paying attention to this.

@Futonbedsfromjapan1 3 года назад

Hello Dreamervanroom, Thank you for taking the time to post this. Our completed Double shikibuton is about 9.5 kg/20 lbs. I do not know what the dimensions of the other company's "Double" is, however, regardless it shouldn't weight 40 lbs. That is a poorly made shikibuton. Too much cotton installed in the wrong way makes for a Shikibuton the is too heavy to properly hang and cotton that cannot shed moisture well. In the west it is not uncommon to see shikibuton that are 6-8 inches thick. They operate under the mistaken idea that thicker cotton/futon makes it more comfortable. This only results in the shikibuton remaining perpetually moist inside which causes it to mat and never able for the cotton to re-fluff and it becomes uncomfortable quickly. This is why many westerners hold a misconception that futon are uncomfortable. With a correctly made shikibuton, if you find you need additional cushioning, it is best to place more cushioning underneath the shikibuton, not attempt to stuff more inside the shikibuton. I hope this is helpful.

How many layers of cotton per shikibuton?

@Futonbedsfromjapan1 2 года назад

This varies depending upon the size and location on the futon. Traditional Japanese futon have the bulk of the cotton where your main body-weight will be. For this reason they are thicker in the center and taper towards the edges. Usually you there are 14-18 layers, however, this too can vary as during the cotton combing process you may get thicker or thinner layers depending upon the humidity at the time of combing. Cotton installed is based on overall cotton weight and not number of layers, per se. While we do have a typical pattern we use when installing cotton, this is why futon making is an art and not a science. During the process of installing the cotton, if the feel isn't right and thickness isn't where it should be, more layers may be added to make it how it needs to properly be. All that said, the overall cotton weight is fairly uniform in the production process. Each size of shikibuton is quite close to the same narrow weight range. (Hopefully that all makes sense.)

Do ppl with western beds have a hard time switching over?

@Futonbedsfromjapan1 2 года назад

Great question. If you've spent a lifetime sleeping on soft western style beds it may take a couple of weeks to adjust. That said, customers with back issues or those that just prefer a more firm bed do not typically have issues with adjusting. You can also add a trifold bad or other cushioning beneath if you prefer a softer bed.

Do I need to purchases a protective "sheet" as americans call it, for my futon and quilt? Or can I sleep directly on the futon with no sheet? Thanks

@Futonbedsfromjapan1 5 лет назад

Hello Michael, Thank you for your interest and your good question. It is important that you use a cover on your futon. Covers can be removed and washed, but you cannot do this with your futon. Covers protect your shikibuton.

@michaelsutton8783 5 лет назад

Thank you for your quick reply! Do you recommend using pillows with your futons? Or sleeping without a pillow. And do you recommend using a tatami mat underneath the futon? Or is it not necessary? I have hard wood floors. Thank you!!

@Futonbedsfromjapan1 5 лет назад

@@michaelsutton8783 If you're used to sleeping with a pillow then you'll definitely want to continue to do so. The surface underneath your futon is important and can have a big impact on the comfort of your shikibuton. Tatami mats are great, but not strictly required. They're more forgiving than hard floors, but don't have a lot of cushioning value. For more information on this, please check out this post on our website's blog here: tatami.futonbedsfromjapan.com

Too bad there is no way to get them in France from your website, any solution ?

@Futonbedsfromjapan1 6 лет назад

Philippe, so sorry for the slow reply. Somehow I missed your comment. If you live in France you can still order the same futon we sell. There is now a French distributor. Please email us at support@futonbedsfromjapan.com and we will connect you to them. I would give you their website address, but I don't know it, nor do I know if it is even up yet.

Our futon masters spent many years learning to perfect futon making from their senpai. It would be easier and less expensive to simply order one from us. :)
