Milliard started out as a small company based in Jersey Shore in 2009. The company quickly grew to popularity, 
Milliard ensures that each of the company’s products undergo testing and meets safety standards and strict requirements for quality control. The brand’s products have been thoroughly researched to ensure excellent design and reliable function.
The company manufactures an extensive selection of sleep products, including mattress toppers, tri-fold mattresses, pet beds, folding beds, crib mattresses, pillows, and cushions. The Milliard Diplomat Folding Bed with Memory Foam Mattress and Wire Lattice Frame has the thickest mattress compared to the mattresses on the brand’s other folding beds.
The Diplomat Folding Bed features thick layers of memory foam and support foam, materials that ensure that the mattress is both comfortable and supportive. A polyester cover gives the folding bed’s mattress a softer surface for added comfort.
Materials and Construction
The Milliard Diplomat Folding Bed with Memory Foam Mattress and Wire Lattice Frame is a well-made folding bed
This folding bed comprises two main parts: the mattress and the frame. The mattress is made of five layers, a soft polyester cover, a layer of fireproof fiberglass protection, memory foam, base support foam, and a non-slip bottom. All these layers in the mattress work together to make the folding bed a comfortable surface to sleep on.
The folding bed has a polyester cover, specifically made to add not only softness but also durability. Polyester is a fabric commonly used in mattress covers because of its feel and resilience. The cover extends all the way to the mattress’ sides and is attached to the non-slip bottom. You don’t have to worry about the cover slipping off while the folding bed is in use. The cover is also removable and washable, so you can clean the cover whenever needed.
Right under the polyester cover is a layer of fireproof fiberglass protection. Fireproof fiberglass protection is a federal regulation standard for mattresses manufactured in the US, specifically 16 CFR Part 1633. Mattresses manufactured in the US are required to contain fire retardant, which will enable the mattress to resist fire. You can be sure that the mattress in this folding bed won’t catch flame easily, as it can resist even flame from a blowtorch.
After the fireproof fiberglass protection layer comes the mattress’ memory foam layer. This composite memory foam is of high quality and is an inch thick, so you can count on the material to be a reliable comfort layer for the Diplomat folding bed. Composite memory foam is made from polyurethane foam, with polyurethane polymer granules embedded in the foam. This structure makes it possible for the memory foam to accurately follow the shape of the sleeper.
The memory foam layer in the mattress of this folding bed has a density rating of 2.5 as well as an IFD rating of 12.0. All these features allow the memory foam layer to give the bed’s mattress a medium-firm feel.
Instead of springs, the mattress’ support layer is made from high-density base foam. The base foam layer is 4 inches thick, so you’ll get plenty of support without the feel of springs poking up through the mattress’ foam layers. The final layer of non-slip fabric at the bottom of the mattress helps secure the mattress to the folding bed’s frame.
The flexible foam in the mattress of the Diplomat folding bed carries the CertiPUR-US certification. The certification ensures that the foam is non-toxic and completely safe to use. The foam in this mattress has been tested and analyzed by an independent lab to ensure that it doesn’t contain any harmful chemicals, like ozone depleters, heavy metals like mercury and lead, formaldehyde, and phthalates. The foam in this folding bed’s mattress is also free from harmful flame retardants and is guaranteed to have low VOC emissions.
The frame on the Diplomat folding bed is made from premium, high-quality steel tubing. The frame’s steel tubes have double reinforcement to resist bending and ensure maximum stability. The frame also features a wire lattice designed to be rigid with no unnecessary moving parts, so it won’t sag under the weight of the sleeper.
This folding bed is designed with sturdy legs to fully support you when sleeping. Each leg comes with a locking brace, all made and installed for your safety. Two wheels can be locked into place when the bed is in use for added security.
And since the Diplomat folding bed is not made to be a permanent sleeping solution, the folding bed is also designed for hassle-free portability and storage. It is easy to move from one place to another, due to its 360-degree pivoting casters, to make sure you can move your bed from one place to another with no hassle. The bed folds up into a compact package measuring just 14 inches thick, so you won’t have problems squeezing the folding bed into a closet for storage.
Milliard also goes the extra mile by ensuring that the Diplomat folding bed reaches its destination whole and intact. The folding bed is double-boxed and bagged to ensure that it doesn’t get damaged on its way to your front step.
