- Width. The larger it is, the more comfortable the sleep will be. More convenient options without armrests.
- Filler. It is desirable that it be uniform and medium hard. The filler must keep the shape of the product. An excellent choice would be a chair-bed with an orthopedic mattress with a block of independent springs.
