Ordered this futon sofa and its matching chaise lounge for their mid-century look, but instantly regretted it as soon as we sat on them. We felt every springs and boards as the foam cushions did nothing to block them. We should have returned them, but I dont think it was an option, then (if it were, it wouldve been hard trying to take them already and squeezed them back into their boxes).
To make them comfortable, we placed a queen, futon mattress over both pieces (chaise lounge used as leg support rather than to one side), then cover it with a thin, quilted blanket. This worked, but not ideal as it required daily straightening and tucking of the cover and mattress. Plus, it covered the mid-century look which was why these furnishings were bought in the first place.
Literal pain in the rear
