I have bought this and it really does work well with the alignment of my body and spine. It is firm but a really good firm. I also use a mattress topper and like it’s gorgeous I never want to get off.If you’re thinking about getting this please do as it does wonders. It was so easy to put together and probably took me all of 30 minutes.The instructions were very straightforward and easy to understand.The wood is perfect and all the slats were smooth. I can honestly say I couldn’t find anything wrong with this purchase I LOVE ❤️ IT.

4.0 out of 5 stars Comfortable and great value, a few irks, but Comfy Living were the stars - delivering at short notice before Christmas Thanks

Comfy-living were amazing when I needed a last minute guest bed. They communicated quickly and delivered the futon at short notice a few days before Christmas 2015. Other retailers delivery times were 6-8 weeks away. The frame is simple to assemble and very sturdy, but ends are roughly cut, so need sanding so no one gets a splinter. However, comfort was key and the mattress was comfortable and a decent size compared to most sofa beds where you can't even turn over in your sleep they're so narrow. One small misgivings is I'm not too keen on the nylon-like material covering the futon, however the main irk, and what you can't see properly in the photo's, is what looks likes 'buttons' across the mattress (like in a sofa), are actually straight white plastic tags similar to plastic tags you find on clothing labels but sturdier. With a round piece of nylon behind each tag, looks like protective packaging not something you'd leave on, so I removed the nylon circles. So the photo's could do with a close up of this feature. Overall, I was so impressed by the company and for the price the sofa bed is great value for money, and handy for short term guests.

The delivery of this bed was really quick, it came in 2 packages which made it easier to get up the stairs, there was only a couple of screws to put the whole thing together (easy ) then it was onto unwrapping the mattress, this was just in a large plastic bag. the whole thing took less than 10 minutes to put together. The bed itself is between a single bed and a small double so it is perfect for a small room, it is sturdy, looks good, the mattress is thick and comfortable, ( not soft, more on the hard side ) very easy to unfold, I would suggest getting some floor protectors if on a wooden floor as it could scrape/scratch the floor also to stop it moving about. I would recommend buying this product.

5.0 out of 5 stars Was suspicious... But well worth the money!

Two adults fit comfortably on here. Pleasantly surprised with the quality, aesthetic and comfort.We keep this in our study / guest room. Great for a reading nook. Pop a throw and some cushions on top, the piece looks great and on trend.It was a winner with our guests that prefer a firm mattress but for those, like ourselves, that prefer a medium firmness we found it comfortable for a night with a topper. Great purchase and means we have more office space rather than paying similarly or more for a basic frame and mattress. Clever folding space saving design, and smart elevation at the head of the bed, so minimal pillows needed.Highly recommend!

The delivery was very quick, turned up 3 working days before the expected range of delivery! Glad I was home!The futon we slept on a couple of nights whilst waiting for a mattress and is fairly comfortable, I wouldn't want to spend many more nights on it but it will be great for the occasional guest.As a sofa it is comfortable and a good use of space.It was very easy to put together, and to put up and down from bed to sofa.I have only given 3 stars however as one of the slats has broken (due to a knot in the wood) already, and that was from less than a week of use. This is easily repairable however and does not deflect from the usefulness of the futon. I just hope no more go!

I just want to start by saying that I'm almost 17 stone and have been sleeping on this every night for nearly 3 weeks.It arrives mostly-assembled (just a few bolts to put in before you can use it!), and assembly takes just a few minutes. Mine arrived in good condition, in 2 separate packages, which were light enough for me to carry up the hill to my front door.It's used as a sofa during the day for my daughter & me, then it's my bed at night. As I say, I'm heavy and I use it nightly - I also like a firm mattress, FYI - I find it comfy enough. If you sleep at the slightly raised end, it's also perfectly sturdy enough to support a good loading.It's probably not for you if you'd need to sleep on it regularly and like a soft mattress, but as a once-in-while bed (or for someone like me) it's perfect.Also if you have a hard wood floor, you'd need a rug or mat to put under it. Mine is scratching the wood.
