Fast delivery, but possibly overpriced
I ordered the twin sized shiki futon directly from the J-Life website. Amazingly, it arrived the day after I ordered it! (I live in Boston.) This was awesome, as I was previously just sleeping on the floor. It arrived rolled up in a 17"x17"x40" box, so I guess it will need a pretty big crate to store it in during the day. It's very comfortable, and seems good quality, so I have no complaints.
My only concern is I think I probably paid too much for the futon. I had considered the $75 A&D Futon Furniture 3" futon (Brand New Gray Traditional Japanese Floor Futon Mattresses, Foldable Cushion Mats, Yoga, Meditaion.), but decided to go with the more J-Life brand to be safe. Since I didn't get the A&D futon, I can't speak to the comparison, but I do think you may be able to get the same futon as sold here for a cheaper price elsewhere. The American manufacturer who makes the J-Life shikifuton is...

J-Life Japanese Traditional Shiki Futon-Twin
I absolutely love my futon. I dislocated my knee cap and so was unable to get into my loft bed. I had wanted this futon, anyway, and it has been awesome. I sleep on my back and I don't move at night, so this works for me. I have to kind of shake it a bit so that it fluffs back out after I've slept on it awhile, but it's much better than the mattress I have. I'm also 5' tall, so it's not too short for me, but someone taller may want a larger size. My futon is on my carpeted floor and I've been sleeping on it like this for over a month now. I have no complaints! Oh, and this is much different from your other types of futon mattresses. It's not too hard like others. It's closer to like the ones I slept on in Japan, though not quite as soft, but I also don't have a tatami mat underneath.
Soooo Comfortable
I bought this mattress so that my godson, who loves everything Japanese, would be comfortable when he visits my house. Well, I ended up sleeping on it myself (long story) for a week, and I slept like a baby. The mattress was right on the wood floor. I put a moderately thick featherbed on top of it, but I always like those. The mattress was so comfortable that I slept as well or better than on my regular organic cotton mattress. If you need a mattress that can fold up for tight storage, I highly recommend this one. You could even sleep on it every night. The directions say that it may take several weeks for the vacuum-packed mattress to fluff up completely, but you certainly don't need to wait more than a couple of days to sleep soundly on it. It smelled a little like straw or hay when I opened the package, but the smell went away within a few days.
