--- About Shiki Futon ---

ALL MADE BY HAND

why is our shiki futon so comfortable?

We place great emphasis on and take extreme care during the stuffing process because it determines the comfort level as well as the longevity of the finished products. Our craftsmen work meticulously to ensure that the futon can retain and maintain its shape and fluffiness with daily use. To make the futons, we use many layers of cotton filling, piling layer after layer to the center of the futon repeatedly. The watoji stitch is then used to secure the cotton filling in the place which also acts as decoration. Though the process is tedious, our craftsmen at Takaokaya, desire to create the most comfortable futons, so that our users can enjoy true relaxation for a good night’s rest. Every night, you will be smiling as you feel your body unwinding and melting away the stresses of the day when you lay down on your Takaokaya futon for the best sleep ever.

about long pillow

The shape of the Long Pillow was inspired by the traditional Japanese straw bag used in the past to transport rice grains called the kome dawara (米俵). It is perfect for sleeping or as a footrest. Adjust the height of the pillow according to your preference to suit your comfort level of support. To lower its height, loosen the string, and to increase its height, tie the string tighter.

I love my new bed

I love my new bed. I love that it's all cotton. I love the fabric. I love my buckwheat pillow.
My back pain has gone away from sleeping on a thinner futon, although I have some meat on my bones so my hips need to get used to it. But above that I love that I can roll it up and take care of it. It's very satisfying to be able to learn about a new way of sleeping, and knowing my back will feel better when I wake up. I feel excited when I make my bed now. I look forward to the future. Thank you for making this product available and I hope to purchase again in the future.

Thank you Heather for the 5* rating and for sharing that your back pain has improved from sleeping on your handcrafted Shikifuton.
Do sun your futon biweekly so that your futon stays soft and fluffy and you can enjoy your futon for longer.

Wishing you the best sleep ever and happy Kutsurogi!

Amazing bed

Had a couple of nights on this bed on top of a tatami mat. It is super comfortable as I am someone who enjoys a firm bed. As compared to the conventional beds, with spring etc, this futon is way better and provides a much better support in your sleep that will help you with joint issues in the long run.

The customer support team was super helpful as well in making sure that I got what I wanted

It had been our pleasure to be able to assist you on your new bed shopping journey, and we are happy that we were able to meet your needs and expectations of a firm bed.

Your 5* review for our products and service is a greatly appreciated.

Happy Kutsurogi!

Comfy and Great Service

I discovered quickly I'm still not really into the sleeping on the floor thing, but I have it as an extra layer on top of my less comfortable mattress, which helps.
It's very clear a lot of craft and care goes into making these, and I love the way it looks too! I've tried a few other floor mattresses before, and this is easily my favorite. Shipping was fairly quick for being handmade, too. Would recommend.

Thank you Owen for leaving us this 5* review.
It is great to know that our handcrafted Shikifuton is your favorite floor mattress!

Wishing you night after night of restful and deep slumber on our Shikifuton!

Fabulous Bed

We bought this for my son, and he absolutely loves it. We have also slept on it, and it is indeed very comfortable. The worksmanship for the futon, cover, and pillow we ordered are excellent. We may buy another for my other son in the near future.

Hi Atheir-san,

We are glad to know that your son is loving sleeping on our handcrafted Shikifuton. Every great review like yours help motivate our craftspeople to want to do better and also preserve the century old sewing techniques used to make our Shikifuton.

Thank you for your support. We look forward to your repeat orders in future!
