Given that we have house guests maybe once a year, if that, it works for us. It's in the nursery as that's also our guest room. In our next home we home to have an actual guest bed and may or may not keep the futon as well.</p> <p>Edited to add - we bought a decent futon mattress so it's fairly comfortable, though firm, to lie on. (I like a firm bed). Sitting on a futon is, well, sitting on a futon. It is what it is. It is no la-z-boy, that's for sure. We will probably buy a feather topper or memory foam topper for it since my mom may stay with us a few weeks after baby is born, and I doubt she'll want to sleep on the hard futon mattress for that long. </p> Mrs. Champagne on "Do you have a day bed or sofa bed?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-day-bed-or-sofa-bed#post-548436 Mon, 04 Feb 2013 11:24:15 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 548436@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a queen size pull out sofa in our office for when guests come. We also have a spare room, but usually 4 people come up at once, so we needed the extra bed. It is just from a local furniture store, can't remember the brand. it was around $1,000. </p> Foodnerd81 on "Do you have a day bed or sofa bed?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-day-bed-or-sofa-bed#post-548428 Mon, 04 Feb 2013 11:20:50 +0000 Foodnerd81 548428@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh I want to see these answers too. </p> <p>I used to have an Ikea Ektorp pull out sofa in my living room and it was pretty comfortable for both sitting and sleeping, but a little big for an office. My mom has a jennifer convertibles pull out and it's terribly uncomfortable both ways. </p> autumnlove on "Do you have a day bed or sofa bed?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-day-bed-or-sofa-bed#post-548408 Mon, 04 Feb 2013 11:11:09 +0000 autumnlove 548408@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I thinking about getting one for our office!
