This chair is definitely solid and great quality.  The cushions are firm which probably means it will last forever but it also means it may not be the most comfortable sleeping bed.  However, it will only be used for guests and we can use a mattress topper or foam to make it a little more comfortable.  Once laid out into a bed it does not have support for the feet so we had to prop something under it to make it level.  The fabric isn't velvety plush but it's not scratchy.  I like the feel and again, it definitely feels like great quality.  I'm happy with my purchase, especially for the price.
