This is a great chair/futon. It looks great in my room in front of my window. I like the fact that you can pull it out into a chaise too. The gray color looks exactly like what is pictured. If you are looking to buy fitted sheets for it for a guest bed, a standard TWIN SIZE fitted sheet works (you don't need the twin XL size). Another piece of advice for prospective buyers: Buy a gel or memory foam topper for it because it is a hard surface for sleeping. Your guest will need the cushion.
