I ordered this futon to replace my bed that got destroyed in a hurricane. The shipping was super quick (delivered two days after I ordered it) and was easy to set up. It is a bit firm to sleep and sit on, but is otherwise very comfortable. I was worried the velcro pockets under the seats would be an enticing hiding place for some of the cats in my home, but I found that there is a split in the fabric on the seat backs where they connect at the ratchet hinges. As a result, a cat was able to slip into the underside of the seat while the futon was in couch mode. I still like and recommend this futon despite this, but for any cat owners, be ready to fish your inquisitive cats out of it often.
