Nirvana Futons Stanford Futon Set - Queen Size, Frame, 8" Mattress, Microfiber Sussex Fudge Cover

I am totally pleased with this futon. First the mattress comes early. That is because it has to expand , it take up to 72 hrs for it to be fully expanded. So when the frame comes it’s ready to be put on the frame . The instructions were clear,the parts were packed extremely well. You can tell it didn’t come from China!!!! I was looking at day beds to fill the space but after reading many reviews I chose this. I am extremely happy I chose this way. It is so comfortable , I’ll be taking my afternoon naps in here I think. Lol. This is a quality product, you can tell when you unpack it. This company cares. !!!!

We removed our old l-shaped couch from our RV because the faux leather was just coming off in small pieces everywhere. We looked at all types of replacement RV couches and recliners everywhere. After removing our old set and based on the fact that we had 80" of room, we finally decided that the Stanford set sold by DCG stores would fit our needs. After placing my order thru Amazon, several days later I contacted Amazon with a request to upgrade the mattress. Amazon contacted the vendor and relayed our request. Allana with DCG stores contacted me and explained the differences in materials, athesitics and details about the construction. We decided on the upgrade after working with her. What a wonderful knowledgeable person she is to work with. Well since this went down without a hitch, everything arrived in about 4 or 5 days. The mattress came first. We waited until we assembled the frame (about 2-hours) which wasn't hard at all and then unpacked the mattress. Instructions say to let it sit for about 48 hours. Within 3 or 4 hours it looks fantastic. The frame is assembled except we haven't attached to the arms as we have to move them into the RV to do that for easier installation. We will install tomorrow morning.We are so excited for this alternative setup since the couch we had from day one was never comfortable as a lot of RV furniture generally is not. Another issue we were concerned about was overall weight. This option is heavy, but not as heavy as trying to fit a 3 seat theater type recliner/couch. We believe that is a cheaper option that looks great and will serve our needs for watching tv or taking a quick nap. Definite upgrade for our RV. Can't praise the DCG folks enough for the reasonably priced and quality pieces that we purchased on Amazon.

Be aware the futon came in three boxes within 3-4 days of each other and the first box came about a week after being ordered so plan for at least two weeks from ordering. We only had tracking info for the first box and would not have known there were multiple boxes except for the other reviews. The futon is very sturdy and took 3-4 hours to set up. The mattress is more comfortable than a typical “college futon“ or sleeper sofa, but obviously no replacement for a bed. We are using it in a man cave/family room mostly as a couch but also has extra sleeping space on family visit. It looks nice though not fancy and work great for what we needed it for.

Honestly, when I received the product in different shipments I was nervous. I didn't know what to expect. Laying all of the pieces out made it look like an overwhelming project. But once you go through the step by step instructions you can see the fruits of your labor take shape.Building the frame was super easy and the wood is excellent quality. I only had one issue during the assembly and that was with attaching the upper half to the lower half. I don't feel the instructions were very clear on that process. I had installed the screw hole covers before joining those two pieces and I had to pry those covers off in order to loosen the lower frame screws. This way, both halves could be joined. Removing the screw hole covers made me scratch the wood a little, but it wasn't all too bad.Apart from the small issue with assembly, the futon is very comfortable to lay on. I had some family stay a couple of nights and they mentioned how comfortable it was. They didn't want to get out of bed in the morning! I love this futon and I'm extremely pleased with the end result. One additional thing I would say is that the mattress doesn't smell very good whenever you receive it. It smells a bit like a barn. However, once you air it out for a few days the smell WILL go away. So no need to worry about that.Great product and I would recommend this to anyone!

We purchased both a full and queen size of this futon for our Airbnb. They look nice and fold out into nice beds as well. People tell us all the time how comfortable they are. I do use a mattress cover, but there is little padding in that.There are quite a few loose threads hanging around the zipper that need to be clipped...hopefully this doesn't indicate issues. We've had these for over year now and lots of guests have used them without problems.Unlike the video, it is NOT easy for a single person to put these down without removing the mattress. My husband always needs to help.The outer material is nice...it seems to wipe clean. We tend to get a lot of smudges from dirty kid's fingers etc. And it only takes a wet cloth to wipe it clean.The queen size does seem to slip down a bit and it needs to be re-adjusted sometimes. It's difficult for a single person to do that too. The frame seems a bit too small for the size of the mattress. Nevertheless, I just ordered a burgundy colored queen size for our upstairs...although this time I ordered the one with the flip out trays for beverages or whatever. I kinda wish I would have ordered that feature on the others too. I'm looking forward to receiving that one.Overall we are very pleased with our purchase.
