My previous roommate had two of these in white faux leather, and I just bought and assembled a navy one for my new place.
First off, the packaging is brilliant. It arrives with the legs and hardware stored in a zippered compartment under the upholstery, and *with the entire couch folded in half, crosswise*. This means the box will fit in your car. Assembly is super easy -- Im 52/100lb and I dragged it into my apartment and set it up entirely by myself in about 15 minutes. All you have to do is bolt on the legs and flip it over. Furthermore, because of this incredibly efficient packaging design, I can disassemble it, put all the parts in the zippered compartment, fold it back in half, and pack it in a hatchback next time I move. Plus, I know I wont lose the parts because theyre inside the couch itself. Amazing.
As for comfort, its about as comfortable as it looks: not a couch to sink into, but fine to hang out on with friends, or read a book on, or play videogames on. The backrest adjustment mechanism is very easy to use, so flipping it from a couch to a bed is a piece of cake, Ive done it just on a whim its that easy. I also appreciate the split back, and often leave half up / half down. Its maybe not the ideal guest bed, since the foam is quite firm, but as a superbly convenient option for crash space Id still recommend it.
As for durability, I lived with three other roommates with the first pair (the white faux leather) for about two years, and the couch held up just fine to our moderate use, so Id say its reasonably durable. (We had another, similar couch start to come apart at the seams but this done didnt.) I dont have any experience with it beyond 2yrs, though, so I cant recommend it for the 10yr horizon or anything. The faux leather is easy to wipe clean.
As others have noted, the white is not a pure white but more of a vanilla, but it went fine with the rest of our white furniture. Ive noticed my new navy couch seems to have a slight crunching sound when you press on it, but the linen has a nice texture and its coloring is similar to denim.
Overall, Id say this couch a definite winner in my book. Its a standout in portability and convenience, perfectly acceptable in comfort, and has performed just fine so far wrt durability. Im surprised to find myself recommending it so highly, but the packaging and assembly process impressed me greatly, and that tips it over into 5 stars.
It took me but 10 minutes to set it up. Its quite firm but it looks very classy. Im using this for an airbnb with limited space, and found this a cheaper alternative than looking for second hand furniture and then finding someone to haul and deliver. It looks just like it does in the photo. I havent taken a photo yet, but if I can add one after were done with our remodel, I will certainly add it on.
This is a great futon. Its very firm, but perfectly confortable for a futon. Seems sturdy and somewhat durable. I got the gray and its almost a rough linen material that i actually really like. Im a couch potato and i like it enough that Im considering purchasing another to go with this one in our RV.
Very ascetically pleasing couch, I got the chaise with it too, albeit a little stiff and not really a lounging couch. I can only sit on this through a few episodes on Netflix before I have to find a more comfortable position.
Im super in love with my futon! It is the perfect size and great quality for the price I paid. Shipping was fast but I did receive it with a whole in the packaging like most of the buyers, fortunately the futon itself was not damaged. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone that is interested.
The girls love this futon in their dorm room. I was afraid it would be too firm after reading the comments, but they said it was just fine. We are very happy with the purchase. Husband put it together pretty quickly, so it must have been easy to do. It is made well, and the fabric isnt thin or cheap looking. It should survive this year and probably a few more.
What a deal! Most reviews I read mentioned that the futon was firm and that was my only hesitation. It is slightly firm but not in a way that makes it uncomfortable! The shipping was right on time and the delivery person even took the time to bring it up three flights to my apartment! The assembly was incredibly simple, and voila--Futon Sofa Bed.
My only minor complaint was that the thin covering it came wrapped in was attached to one corner of the couch with some sort of glue, and it stuck to the fabric. I was able to get it almost completely off without tearing the fabric though!

very easy to assemble
arrived on time, very easy to assemble! I would highly recommend
Good little couch
Easy to assemble. Ive been sleeping on it for a couple weeks and its just fine. Nice fabric, I got the navy.
Easy to assemble / disassemble, fits in a car, click-clack adjustment is a piece of cake.

Four Stars
Not the most comfortable thing in the world but looks good and works.
Totally awesome.

Pleasing to they eye, leaves you wanting in the comfort category.
