Has anyone tried the Froli sleep system?

[Celebration76]

It looks like a great concept. Would love to know if it meets or exceeds users expectation. Getting older going for comfort over speed. any other suggestions? I am in a Morgan 41 Out Island Master berth is queen size so every option is pricey.

Umm, if hot Northern Euro/Scandi girl came with bed springs I wouldn't get a moments sleep with the wife beating me over the head....

We had a froli system when we bought the boat. Got rid of it, of no real reason other than we re designed the interior and the bed design was a different size. Having slept on it for 3 months prior to shifting it I can say it made a difference.

We have closed cell foam mattress with two densities, just like memory foam. The bottom foam is hard and 10 CM thick with a soft c,owed cell foam of 4 CM. it is just like a very expensive memory foam mattress you would find on land but didn't cost a tenth the price. Since we were starting from scratch on all our bedding and seating it seemed best. It is an incredibly comfortable sleep at anchor...

...at sea I could sleep on a rock and be happy as I am usually very tired...

...only consideration is that we designed it in several parts so when we are off the boat or after a wet passage we can lift it up to dry or keep dry.

Have used the Froli system for four years and it works. Made a so-so foam mattress into a comfortable sleep surface. Also good in that it eliminates condensation under the mattress.
My bed has three compartments under it, so I divided the Froli into three segments and attached the springs to the individual boards making it easier to access a single section.

Thanks so much for the information. I will be in the Caribbean for several years the dry under mattress sounds good.

We picked it up in Annapolis a few years back. Yes it's worth it. I also have a layered foam mattress which left my lower back sore from the odd angles. I added he firm support pieces under my neck and lower back and it does help. It also allowed for ventilation under the mattress. Dri-dek is another option if you want just ventilation which is what the Frohli system replaced.

I talked to the Froli (older) lady at a boat show & asked of that was her. She was only slightly amused.

I used all open cell foam on our boat so that it would breath and dry. The stuff we selected is anti-microbial for mold control. So far OK.

You can glue the edges together to make any shape.

We did a little surgery on this slatted base from Ikea and it works great. We removed the lower frame and just used the grey plastic fittings and the slats. We cut the slats to length to follow the taper of the bed. A great feature is that you can adjust the flex of the slats under your hips.

The whole thing rolls up for access to under berth storage.

Go try it at Ikea to see if it makes sense for your berth.

Yes, that lady person is pretty.

I have slept on a similar mattress and it was fine. But it was in port.

One can have a proper springs and coconut fibers mattress done to fit any bunk. I like them most.

Froli sleep system made our 25 year old v-berth cushions much, much better for a small cost.

Never used any of these! always been to expensive for us! We have always used latheing staggerd under our beds to do away with moisture. It works for us at almost no expense, just a little hand work !! We have a queen sized Temperpedic mattress, never have anything else again !

We have one. It made a rock hard foam mattress into an acceptable one. Added a memory foam pad on top and then it became very good. My wife is hotter than the Froli model, so I can tell you she likes it too.

[delatbabel]

I have one. I used to have incessant dampness problems under the mattress, that was my main reason for getting it. Yes, it does make the mattress easier to sleep on. It wasn't that expensive and very easy to fit, I would recommend it to anyone.

another vote for froli.. SPent a year in the caribbean and never had a problem with condensation or mold under the mattress. More comfortable too

We like the "system" a lot. It even adds a little rock and roll to help with the real rock and roll of a rough night..
