Is this a comfortable height to rest your feet on when used in front of a couch? The height dimension is higher than most options we are considering.

It depends on how high your couch is and how high you like to put your legs up. It is at the level of my couch cushion therefore my legs are at almost a 90 degree angle or hip height.

We find it a very comfortable height. we really enjoy the ottoman... nice shelf on the bottom for blankets or books or other stuff.

The ottoman is a few inches higher than most would prefer for putting legs up, it is still comfortable once you get used to it. I bought it for eating in front of the tv so I wanted to have it a bit higher. Put a thick piece of glass on top of it, this way it works well for both uses.

For my couch it's perfect. Very comfortable. Maybe 1-2 inches higher but not noticeable. The top of the ottoman is firm so you don't sink into it too far

Kate, I had the same question before I bought it and I was nervous because it was a big piece to pack up and ship back - a concern I always have about buying online. When we got it - it was big - but even against the rantings of my husband - I got it anyway. We both love it!! I can't say enough good things about it - plenty of space underneath to put blankets and books, and I have a lazyboy sofa and when I strech my legs our they are even with the seat of the sofa. It's a very comfortable surface - not too hard and not to squishy. For us, this was a perfect purchase. (Easy to put the legs on too - I left that to my husband, who just for a precaution, pre-drilled the holes) Hope this helps.

I have not sat on it, but it is comfortable on the feet so don't think it would be uncomfortable anywhere else.

From the back of my couch to the end of the bed when it is out it is about/but no more than 7'10. I love this couch it's been a year and I have crazy kids jumping all around it and it's still in beautiful condition and very comfy. The bed has a crapy mattress but we put a 2 inch memory foam pad on it and it is way comfy now. Good luck!

You won't be able to hide this mattress in the couch. You'll have to store it elsewhere and just lay it on top when you need it. It's way to bulky to fold. But yes, it's very comfortable.

Sorry Debra, this is set up in my Florida home and I'm not there right now. I'll just say that it is very attractive and is tall enough for my wife and I to lean back on it while sitting up watching TV. Our box spring and mattress are about average height and this fits well - as represented by the picture on Amazon.

I don't think it would be super comfortable for a tall person, but I love it (I'm 5'4"), and my kids think it's awesome. So I'd give it a B for comfort. It can be irritating how the cushion slides around. The material is very durable but not super attractive, but the frame is very sturdy so as far as "holding up well" I'd give it an A!

We bought ours for our motor home couch sleeper. It's basically an air mattress with automatic inflate and deflate functions. I like that it's covered with "mattress" material. It is a stand alone mattress. I think it would be OK to place on top of a sofa bed, but too thick to fold away until you removed it. I've slept on it a few times and it feels fine to me!

You should sit on a chair to use it. I don't think it's made to be stood on. Sometimes, I use it lying down by propping it up against couch arm and putting my feet against it.

I am not sure that I understand this question correctly. I put my foot down to the wooden foot rest inside at the bottom. The foot rest is probably 3/4 inch from the very bottom. I feel pretty comfortable. Never worried if it will burn my feet. The heat level is adjustable.

I see that BECCA already answered this. I'm fine with the height from the floor - and I'm 5'7". But, I agree, it would be nice if it were a little narrower at the tip. However, I love it and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.

Standing up it does seem short and that was the initial response received once it was in place but sitting on the couch or in a chair in front/around it you are at an ideal viewing level. To me and those in my office...it's a perfect seated height for a tv.

To sit in it, or to try to get it to shape, you need to jump into it. Once it settles, it'll probably be a good height compared to the couch. I recently bought a house and moved this "bean bag" (it's filled with scraps of foam blocks). This thing is more trouble than its worth. I would pay you to remove it from my home. It's a cool thought, but you need to remember how large 60" x 60" is. It's wasted space in my house.

Sorry, I have already packed it away. I just used for a weekend due to a visit from my parents. I am thinking that the height was just OK. I tried it and I had to bend over.

David, here is where we are coming from. My husband likes the sofa, BUT, he said to let you know that he does not try to recline it after the first day, because he is not sure it will return to position, for like you mention, the recliner has an issue. Ours also had a tear in the back , but we got that repaired. HOWEVER, he likes the sofa very much. I was going to return, but he said, he prefers that we keep it. HERE is a positive. There way the lower part of each top cushion curves out makes it easier on our backs.In fact, if you sit and put up your feet, it is almost like reclining because of the shaping of the back cushions. And, the price is certainly right. Have had ours a few months. Hope this is helpful. Will be interested in what you determine, one way or the other.

I guess it could be used on a sofa...it is very tall though and if you are using it the other way it seems very long. Unless your question is regarding the firmness of it. It will Definitely stand up. Very comfortable. I would look at the measurements in the product info. If they dont list it, write back and I will measure ours.

I would give it a 7. I often nap on this couch and find it very supportive of my back and love that I don't sink into it but am still very cozy hen lying down. Both my husband and myself are tall and are able to comfortably lay down. With added pillows its also comfortable to snuggle up for a long movie!

The correct answer is NO. I bought this mattress for the exact purpose of putting on a futon and am disappointed with the results. Folding up into couch position is fine (the mattress is very squishy) and lying on the mattress in bed form is OK (I weigh 190 lbs and could *maybe* feel the futon slats underneath, but not too bad). The issue is that when folded into couch form and you sit on it *you will feel the slats on your butt*. It is not comfortable. I really wish I'd gotten the 8-inch mattress instead, but I'm not even sure that would have been enough. Edit: My futon is one of the nice wooden ones with lots of slats. If you have a cheap metal futon, this will not work AT ALL. The correct answer is NO. I bought this mattress for the exact purpose of putting on a futon and am disappointed with the results.
