What is a Futon
Loveseat?
Futon
Loveseats are great for providing the maximum sleeping and sitting
space in the minimum of floor space. They
are ideal for small guest rooms, home-offices, porches or any other
space where the 80-85" of wall space needed for a full-size bifold
futon frame just isn't there. With a full-size loveseat, you can
fit a conventional full-size bed (54" x 75") into 60" of wall space.
With a twin-size loveseat, you can fit a conventional twin-size
bed (39" x 75") into 45" of wall space.

Traditionally,
space saving futons were trifold frames in which a thin, mostly
cotton futon mattress futon mattress was folded over the back of
the frame. Unfortunately these mattresses are not very comfortable
or durable and the trifold futon frames are difficult to convert
and un-attractive.
What
is different about our space saving futon loveseats? Instead
of using a full or twin size mattress and folding it in thirds,
we split the mattress into two pieces. The larger piece is used
as the seating area on a good-looking, easy to convert bifold frame.
The smaller portion is used when the frame is converted to a bed
or as an optional footstool. By splitting the mattress, we can use
of a nice, thick hi-tech futon mattress which if it were in one
piece would have far too much body to fold over the back. And this
means a more comfortable sitting and sleeping experience.
