Is bed suitable for person weighing 150kg?

Question
i need to mold a foot rest out of something like this bolster pillow. Can I cut through the foam easily - how firm is it?

Answer

We cannot recommend that you alter the Angled Bolster as we are unable ensure that the foam will be able to withstand any alterations that were made.

The foam is a fairly firm foam made to give extra support and comfort.

We do have Foot Elevators and Elevation Wedges available depending on the purpose for which you need them, they might work.
