This futon is a beautiful blue velvet. The lighting in the photos doesn’t show very well but the color is very rich and the velvet is really pretty. Come with two small pillows in the same fabric. Seems sturdy and was easy to put together. I am 5’4 and was able to sleep comfortably on it when one arm was removed. I took off one star because it is quite hard but then I guess most futons are. I did put a thin twin sized mattress pad on it and that helps somewhat. It is not used often but seems sturdy and will hopefully last a long time.
