The futon is exactly what we needed for our guest room.  It is a little on the small and short side but we don't intend on using this as a main piece of furniture.  We wanted to have something for guests to sit on in our guest room or to use as an extra bed and it works great for just that!  Extremely easy to put together and super easy to convert from a sofa to a bed and back.  For the money, it was well worth it!
