I bought this to replace the use of blow up air beds when my grown up children come to stay, the sofa looks really lovely in my dining room and very stylish with some scatter cushions, however, it is extremely hard! Probably ok for an occasional seat but definitely not for everyday use. My eldest son recently stayed for 4 nights, he managed only 2 nights on the sofa bed before reverting back to the air bed. I’d even bought a thick mattress topper to try and make it more comfortable. I think the only way to make this more comfortable to sleep on would maybe be a memory foam mattress topper
