- How many people can sleep on it?
- It is a 55-inch-wide sleeper, so it fits one adult comfortably and two smaller people snugly. It suits occasional guests, not a couple's main bed.
- Does it need a separate mattress?
- No. The seat folds out into the sleeping surface, so there is no extra mattress to buy or store. Expect a firmer, thinner feel than a real bed.
- How much room does it need when pulled out?
- Leave clear floor space in front of the sofa roughly equal to its depth again when it lies flat. Measure the room before choosing a spot against a wall.
- Is it hard to assemble?
- It arrives flat-packed and takes two people to move and put together. Most of the work is attaching the frame and legs; allow an hour or so.
- Is it good for everyday sleeping?
- It is better for occasional guests. The folding cushion is thinner than a mattress, so nightly sleepers should look at a dedicated sleeper sofa or a bed.
- Can it be used as a normal sofa every day?
- Yes. In the upright position it works as a small three-seat sofa for a living room or studio, and the lounger position adds a reclined option.
