Our front living room Montana has 2 of those tri fold couches facing each other. We have tried just about everything to make them more comfortable. Yes, the end closest to the wall seems to go downhill. We tried foam toppers. We tried an added 4 inch air mattress. Nothing seemed to work. It still felt like everything was going down hill. We even tried reversing, with our heads in the middle of the room and our feet toward the wall. This helped, but still very uncomfortable.
Slide topper did just that ..... slid around. Horrible. Air mattress did the same thing. Air mattress on the top was worse. The joints in the middle of the couches were horrible too, even with 4 inches of air on top of them.
Finally, we gave up completely. We purchased as 12 inch blow up air mattress that came with it's own built in air pump that inflates and deflates. Our current one even retains the correct air, so if it leaks out slightly the motor turns on keeping it properly inflated.
AND.... we don't even attempt to put it on the fold out couches any more. We just set it on the floor, between the couches in the upper living room. This one sleeps much, much better.
We don't use it very much, only when our son and grandson come along with us. This was our solution. As a couch they aren't bad, so we don't want to get rid of them. As a bed, no matter what you do, they are horrible.
If you have the space to do likewise, I suggest, rather than making modification, purchasing foam toppers (or should I say ... slide toppers), or a el-cheap-o air mattresses, just pick up one of those 11 or 12 inch blow up air mattresses from Wall Mart in the camping section. You'll pay around $100 for it, but if you or your guests or family are actually sleeping on those couches, they'll appreciate a good solid, very thick ... on the floor air mattress.
