This day bed is exactly what I needed for my small den. I wanted a comfortable queen sized sleeper for my guests. I wanted it to fit through my 27 inch den doorway. I wanted to be able to assemble and easily move it around by myself. I wanted to be able to wash the cover if need be. And most of all I wanted a place to relax with a book or have a nap. It is all those things. I also want to tell other potential buys just how pleased I was with the quality of the cover. The material is soft and seems quite durable at the same time (I've only had it a couple of weeks).  It really is awesome fabric and the Ice color is a very calming pale blue, very tranquil.
