This couch looks great, it arrived in good time, and we will still use it as a last resort guest bed, but it is probably the most uncomfortable thing I have ever sat on. After a couple of hours of sitting on it, my back was sore. It is like sitting on a rock. If you want it for a guest bed you will need a mattress pad and I am not sure how much it will help. The design is great but not comfortable at all.
