There are many positives when it comes to this awesome looking Futon. First off, its solid wood construction with a great finish and while putting it together, you really get a feel for the high level of quality. The drawers are spacious and sturdy and can fit a lot of items, even pillows. The futon goes from sitting position to a pull out bed position with ease. The futon mattress is actually a custom coil spring type specifically for futons and is comfortable while providing decent support. Colors are spot on considering what I was expecting (Black/Suede Gray) and overall very happy with the purchase. I have bought many cheap ($250 or less) futons and from my experience with this one, it is the nicest futon I have ever owned.
