10 Easy Pieces: Portable Mattresses for Indoors or Out

May 18, 2023

We haven’t yet met a soft place to sit that we didn’t like. If it’s in the garden—even better. And with summer fast approaching, portable mattresses (also referred to as bedrolls, throwbeds, and floor mattresses) can easily transition from atop a sofa to outdoor lounger, chair, or lawn. We’ve rounded some of our favorites.

N.B.: Featured photograph by Luke Atkinson unless noted, courtesy of The Quist, from The Quist: The King of Treehouses on Merry Hill in Herefordshire.

Above: Available in beautiful paisley prints or stripes, Plumo’s block-printed Cotton Mattresses, £69, come with handles at either end.
LA-based Hedgehouse makes a large selection of Throwbeds in classic preppy patterns (think stripes and gingham); from \$\270.

Above: Caravane’s collections lean towards beautiful subdued palettes. The Raana Sofa Cover, €185 is no exception, made with block-printed cotton in indigo, red, and khaki stripes and finished with corner tassels.
Above: These Outdoor Kyoto Sun Mattresses by Oyoy are made of recycled polyester; $155.
Above: The Cotton Quilted Mattresses by Tensira are handmade in the Republic of Guinea in Africa using indigo-dyed hand-woven cotton and then filled with kapok, a naturally growing fibre with a silk feel; from $178.
Puebco&#8\2\17;s Nomadic Bed, \$\260, is more than just a portable mattresses; it’s a sturdy place to sleep on the move, too. Its design was inspired by similar pieces in India that are used on long train journeys. A waxed cover gives added protection on damp surfaces and can be removed for cleaning.

Above: Toast’s edit of homewares is routinely packed with covetable, design-led pieces that are always on our wishlist. The Ikat Bolster Cushion, £89, is crafted by weavers who work under master artisan Bikshapati Kolaan in the village of Yellanki in Andhra Pradesh, India. It comes with a wool-filled cushion pad.
Above: Rowen & Wren’s Cotton Mattresses, £98, use hand-dyed West African cotton in small checks, stripes and our favorite navy blue check.
Above: Vertbaudet’s beautiful Futon-Type Floor Mattresses, £66, may be designed for kids’ rooms but we’ll happily pinch them for the garden. They are also covered in cotton drill, making them a sturdier option than fine cotton mattresses.
