The Eco Sofa is the lower-priced of The Futon Shop's two sofa bed replacement mattresses, hand crafted in San Francisco. Instead of a foam core, it uses 2 inches of pure Dunlop latex wrapped in American-grown virgin wool inside a GOTS certified organic cotton case. The wool doubles as the fire barrier, so no chemical flame retardants are added. The Futon Shop rates it medium firm and lists a 7 to 10 year life expectancy. Prices start at $464.98 for 35 by 72 inches and reach $729.98 for the 78 by 63 inch size, across 9 sizes, which helps with older or unusual frames. The listing is inconsistent on thickness, naming 4 inches in the title and 4.5 inches in the feature list, so confirm before ordering. Each mattress is made to order and covered by a 30-day comfort exchange rather than a refund trial, which is weaker than the year-long trials at Mattress Insider.
