Got this for my 63 300lb 20 year old he LOVES it for both his bed a couch for gaming between work school. He even does most of his schoolwork from here since everything is online right now. I did get him a futon mattress separately ended up buying a 3 foam mattress for the top just so it would be a bit more comfortable for him to sleep on!
It would have been 5 stars but the one flaw Ive found is getting it upright into couch mode is more difficult than it should be if youre doing it by yourself. Largely because the mattress itself doesnt want to fold up easily. The first dozen times I actually had to pull it most of the way off, which is bothersome as the mattress isnt that light. Its getting better over time as the mattress is getting more worn into the sitting position. Id recommend that anytime its not being used to sleep on put it in sitting position to get the mattress time to remain in that position and make it easier to fold up next time.
Assembly was a little more hectic than expected, at the end parts even with two people. Youve got to be pretty steady holding up the frame pieces. Some advice, definitely take your time at tightening up the screws a little way and going back around and doing it repeatedly rather than try to tighten them in one at a time in one or two goes.
Also if you cant get a second person to help, be prepared to find something, or several somethings, to prop up the frame while putting it together.
This futon is the nicest futon I have ever slept on. It was very easy to assemble. we didnt find the directions until after it was put together, so it truly is self/explanatory. Its beautiful and the mattress is much more comfortable than other mattresses I have slept on. However, I have been sitting in the same spot on the mattress for less than a month, and when I pull the futon out to sleep on it, the mattress dips where I sit, and I am not a large woman. Therefore, I do not recommend sitting on it for any length of time if you are going to use it as a bed as sitting apparently leads to an uneven mattress. Others have mentioned the difficulty in taking it from the sleeping position to the sitting position, and after watching the video, I am able to do it by myself every time, and it is very easy, so be sure to watch it if you are having difficulty with that.
Relatively easy to assemble (no issues putting it together). Good quality material frame. Sofa to bed and back to sofa
with minimal effort. Mattress is comfortable as a bed and good for seating. Not a bulky piece of . Looks good and feels substantial. Gets used as a bed everyday with no issues so far. Would definitely recommend.
The futon is definitely worth the money. Its kinda a pain to put together and its a two person job. Only downside is that you cant switch positions unless you have two people and the matress keeps slipping off so it sticks out alot. Otherwise its super comfy and sturdy
My family and I had been shopping for a couple of weeks and could not decide what to put in our loft. We finally decided upon a futon. This thing is more comfortable than our downstairs couch! Its very sturdy and it doesnt look like an old futon in a college dorm. Very easy to assemble and best assembly instructions Ive ever read. 10/10 would recommend.
This futon is wonderful. Im a 51 yr. old lady who has never put any together. This was childs play! I did it all by my self, in a couple hours with plenty of breaks, lol. All the pieces and hardware is clearly labeled; and there is colored coded labels on corresponding pieces that you connect. With some positive reinforcement I do believe my 9yr old would have been able to do it. There are metal Ackermans for every screw on this thing, It folds and unfolds very easily, the mattress is firm, and it doesnt make so much as a squeak when you plop down on it. Super value, Im so happy I made this purchase.
