I want to use this primarily as a couch, and occasionally as a bed for guests. Will it be comfortable as a couch?

I use it as a couch and a bed in my room so i have extra room. Its just as comfortable as a couch. I sometimes sleep on it that way too. Its a great matteress. I got it and im still amazed on how it holds its comfort.

The mattress is very thick and firm but comfortable. So far so good since we started using it 3+ months ago

Hi - it is a springy couch but quite comfy! I have not found a better value. One thing that I love about it is that it is easy to clean when you spill things on it. I have a rather naughty cat and have had the clean to microfiber cover three times -- to perfection!

It is very comfortable. However, the mattress could slide a little. You may need some anti-slippery liner to keep it in place.

I think it's very comfortable as a couch. Bought one for my son and daughter-in-law, and once I sat on it several times at their house, I bought one for my own futon on my sun porch. The mattress I already had was fine, I guess, but was stuffed with some type of ticking, and did not have springs -- so there was just no give to it, and when I sat on it for a while, it got uncomfortable. It's the springs that make this new mattress feel so good to sit or lay on, in my opinion.

Yes its actually a very comfortable couch. I have a strong wood frame though I don't know if it'd be different with a metal one

Although it is rather comfortable compared to most chaise lounges, it isn't ideal for getting comfy to watch tv. This is in our formal living room. My husband sits here to play his acoustic and I sit here to play iPad or read a book. I'm 5'9" and need a tad bit more room. It is firm and mainly for looks.

Due to its very straight back, i wouldn't recommend it as a substitute for a couch/sofa. We use it in the dining room with throw pillows which make it quite comfortable when dining, but it is not comparable to an actual sofa. It is similar to a dining room chair or bench.

It is comfortable. My only caveat in the comfort factor is that it has no arms, so some my find it awkward. My cocktail table has ottomans that pull out from under it, that helps. As far as the size and cushions go, I would give that a yes.

I think mijcar has the truth of it. I'm doing a low-budget version of what you describe: I have two of these side by side and the slightly-more expensive rolled futon (from the same company) on top of that. It's very comfortable. I have some movement under the "bedroll" because I'm laying lengthwise on it, but if I understand your plan you intend to be lying "against" the grain, so to speak, widthwise. If so, it should be fine. Actually, once I get a new place with more room I might well do the same thing you suggest. It's a good idea.

No, it is comfortable. I would suggest the wider chair. My next purchase will be one that is wider.

Yes, it's very relaxing. The only real complaint we have is it barely fits 2 people... I can't imagine how it would fit 3. I'm 5'4" 105 lbs, my husband is 6' 165lbs and we have to get extra creative to fit in there together. We also added an extension to the corner seat so it's angled.

It is not a bed. It is a love seat. I have it in my sitting room with a TV which is just a perfect fit. Now as long as a sofa.

I don't think it would make it feel like a bed but It should make it more comfortable. You would have to remove it in order to use the futon to sit on. It comes in a nice case that you could put it in but it is very bulky so it will take a little time to get it folded up and stored that way

In my opinion, definitely not. It is a beautiful chair...it is not a comfortable chair. I love it so much as a pretty piece to put in a room we don't use often, but I would never lounge in it, as it is stiff.

yes, it can be fold as a couch. But it will to thick for those trifold type futon.

Yes it is, it is my couch cushion and i have slept like a baby on it. I would say that if you are using it on a couch or bed that has a box spring or some sort of spring system (Mine is a victorian sofa with hand tied springs) you will be just fine.

I personally find it more comfortable on a solid surface but it would fit ok on a bed for entertainment. Proper posture and hand position wouldn't be reinforced in that regard but if just for entertainment I am certain that it would work fine.

I've used it as a bed and have a Comfortaire Mattress on it..It has worked quite well. You should just make sure the end doesn't fold in...It doesn't hurt anything, but it makes the surface unevenly supported.

We used this to replace a futon mattress. It remains in couch mode most of the time in a spare bedroom. At the moment the room is doubling as an office bedroom for a friend that needed a place to live for a while. She reports that the mattress is quite comfortable and works well retiring to the couch position. The aesthetics were less important to us than the practicality of being able to provide a second guest room.
