Love this frame--easy to put together (but there were two of us, one of which is far more handy than I am). Love the look & sits well with a 5in memory foam futon mattress. I've only had it a few days, and no guests have slept on it yet, but I live in a small/city apartment, so this futon is my primary seating. I would suggest getting some nice, big pillows to put in the back, just for extra comfort, if you plan to sit on it for a long period.
