I wanted to add a slightly larger sleeping space to my office for when I have a house full of guests. I like that the futon has a smaller footprint when its setup like a couch. I was worried there was a green or yellow tint to the gray, but its just a light gray. Very neutral color with a minimalistic design.
This futon comes in two parts plus the six legs and four bolts. I was able to put it together by myself in less than five minutes. The tools and legs are on the underside of the right side of the futon in a zipped compartment.
It comes in a very large box but isnt super heavy. Once assembled, it feels solid but not heavy. The two halves are connected in the middle with two metal legs with four large bolts. Each side moves independently. It seems to lock in two different upright positions and they are even.
The cushion is very firm but comfortable. It has to be manually pulled out and lowered to use as a bed. It isnt very wide or long, but its a lot wider than the cot I was using. The back board that supports the back rest/raised part of the futon when flat (in bed mode) is always in that position, so I use that triangular area between the board and the back of the seat (in couch mode) to store the pillows I use when lounging on it. Must have!
