Since our futon is our primary couch for a while as we renovate I was looking for something affordable, durable, and good quality. I also have a toddler, a man-child for a partner, and a 120 lb dog. This slip cover sure fits the bill! It fit our mattress perfectly, it's soft, great color (we got the sage), hasn't ripped or shown signs of any wear despite several "squirrel" moments with our dog, vacuums easily, spot cleans easily, and it was a good price. I'm probably going to get the spice colored one as well.
