This convertible chair is just what we needed to replace an old twin bed. Since that room isn't used that often, I really love this because it gives us so much more room in there. Super easy assembly, and the color goes with everything. Easy to convert from chair to bed. I can't lift much, but this is so easy to extend. The material is high quality, being soft yet very duralble ( excuse the hair on the item...Our husky thought it was hers! ) This is so perfect to open up our space in the spare bedroom, yet turn it into a sleeping unit when occasionally needed. It's also very comfortable. It's firm, yet not so stiff that you can't relax. I am very happy with this.
