I fall asleep on it all the time but for some reason I'm up an hour later but from what i read via internet, it is ok to sleep on it for a while.

I wouldn't sleep on it. If I remember correctly, the instuctions say 'start with 10 minutes'. I think from there on it depends on the individual.

The paperwork that came with it gave some recommendations for time to lay on the mat. I do 10 min. or so, which is enough for me. I don't think going to sleep on it is a good idea, personally.

At first, it is suggested not to exceed 20 minutes and gradually build up to 40 minutes. The directions don't give a recommended time but in regards to sleeping on it the directions read: it doesn't matter if your total time on the mat is more than 40 minutes. Just remove the mat when you wake up and go back to sleep.

I'd say a little wider than a twin bed, with the exception of a shorter length (head to toe). Does that make sense? Also, it's alright to sleep on, except that there is a bar in the middle that can be uncomfortable. When you first get it, it's a little stiff, but after breaking it in, it's decently comfortable to sit on.

We thought the same thing. I could not possibly sleep on it! This foam is so very, very hard. I advise against it for a bed.

ok, sorry, guess I wasn't quite understanding what you meant... without any numbers not really sure we could ever figure that out, but I will say--- I was heavy! When you take it out of the box (when it's all flat) it's a beast.... and maybe it was just me, but when you lay it out to unroll it, the wrong side is up, so you have to flip it... which is tough.HOWEVER, I am so serious.... it's the best mattress ever to sleep on!

Try as I might I could not get it to stay in the "all the way back" reclined position. So it doesn't work for me. However, just the reclined position is good for me. If it went all the way back and stayed that way, I'd fall asleep in it!

No it really doesn't have a lot of padding....It is ok to sit on for awhile, but I don't think it would be comfortable to sleep on. I have it in a family room.....it is ok to sit and watch tv for a bit, but I wouldn't say it is comfortable enough to be a bed!

We put ours on the bed in the morning and slept on it that night. It's in our camper so once we slept on it the following weekend, we could tell it had expanded more but it was definitely sleepable the same night.

I assume you mean to sleep on? Good question it is pretty long - long enough that my small tent was too small. My best guess is that it would not. Also, it sits fairly high of the ground

I have this on an air bed and everyone who has slept on it says it is very very comfortable. Most don't even realize they are on an air bed. My son who comes home to visit sleeps on this bed instead of the one in his room. He likes it much better. Hope this helps.

Yes, it will somewhat be uncomfortable. It's not hard material but niether is it soft, I for one normally sleep on my sides or facing down but I gave up sleeping face down after purchasing this product. I am not saying you "can't", surely you can but while you move around in your sleep it will move a little around your face. I should have included this on my review..

I had a 200lb man sleep on it for a week with no problem. Just make sure you get the thicker foam mattress for comfort. There are two common thickness, I think I bought the 8 inch.

No, I slept on it a few hours after I put it on my bed. Worked like a charm!

You could, but do you plan to sleep on it? Honestly, it's not comfortable at all. Worst purchase I ever made.

Yes you can lay on it. I'm 250 lbs and it had no problem. But this only covers my lover back completely. Not big enough for whole back. But works great. Maybe 2?

It's best to use this on top of your mattress. Also, this is sized as a queen. With that being said, I left mine on my stone floor to air out a few days and tried laying on it then. It was still surprisingly comfortable, but if you are not light enough you could be hitting the surface beneath the mattress topper. My advice, get a cheap mattress and place the topper on it.

It is 6" thick and should be comfortable to sleep on if placed on the floor, but I would add some type of padded topper (i.e., memory foam) for a little more cushion.

I wouldn't hesitate to sleep on it. However I would first do my best to make sure there is nothing under it sharp enough to penetrate thru the tarp, just as you would a tent. But in all honesty I believe it wasn't designed to be slept on, but to be slept under.
