We were looking for a sleeper sofa when we stumbled upon this. It's a great couch for our purposes- kids hangout/lounge area. It sits low to the ground but is comfortable. The kids can even sit or lay on the top allowing room for a lot of kids on one couch. We just had our first guest and the foldout to the king size is awesome. Super easy to do and makes a great sized bed. You will need a mattress topper because you'd otherwise feel the separation between the ottomans and couch pieces. Another huge benefit to this piece is its ease of assembly and ability to be moved. I'm a female with a smaller than average build and I was able to get the box to the room I needed it in and put it together by myself. If at any point I need to move it to another room I could also do that myself. Even with its ability to be easily moved, it's very sturdy and is supportive as both a couch and bed. Another bonus is that all pieces have removable, washable slip covers.
