The LofaBed is the evolution of futon furniture. It is a combination of a davenport base and a futon mattress, resulting in a more comfortable, practical, and economical alternative to the traditional sofa-bed. The LofaBed looks and feels like a normal sofa, but incorporates an 8" buttoned futon, a storage compartment for sheets, blankets and pillows; and a wall hugging mechanism that is incredibly easy to operate. Elastic webbing supports the futon and supplies a level of comfort that allows this product to be classified as upholstered ***** futon furniture!
