Queen Size Futons Offer Versatility and Comfort

December 16, 2007 Futon Sets, Futons — gabe

Many people don’t fully understand the difference between queen futons and full size or love seat styles. While the size difference is obvious, there are a few more benefits of choosing a queen size futon. Queen size futons offer more length and width than the standard style, and can easily accommodate up to two people. They’re also perfect for taller people, and are a much better choice for teenagers and college students who can quickly outgrow the standard twin.

Queen Size Futons for Maximizing Your Space
Queen size futons are designed with simple construction and are most commonly found in a wood frame style. They’re easy to disassemble and reassemble, and so are perfect for on-the-go students and people who are frequently relocating. Queen futons are also space-efficient; when you’re trying to decorate a small guest bedroom or living area, a queen mattress can be just large enough to accommodate for sleeping and relaxation, but small enough to fit into a small space. If you choose a heavy-duty coil mattress, the queen futon can also be used as the main bed.Â

Queen Size Futons for Easy Setup
Since a queen mattress is heavier than the standard twin, queen size futons are designed with a simple front load operation. This makes it easy to set up the cushions for a platform bed or sofa—all in a few simple steps.  Queen size mattresses can also be folded up and stored easily. If you decide not to display your futon and only use it when you have company over, the frame is lightweight enough to move with just one or two people, and the mattress can be unrolled and setup within minutes.

Queen Size Futons for Style and Comfort
Almost all queen size bedding and accessories can be used to accent your queen sized futon, so you can add a stylish touch to your living space without buying specialty items. Queen size futons are also simple to turn into sofa lookalikes; just add a full-length slipcover and a few decorative pillows, and you can instantly transform your futon into a standard piece of living room furniture.

Queen size futons are a great choice for almost any-sized room, and come with extra benefits beyond the basic twin. They’re ideal for tall people, couples, and anyone who desires some extra sleeping space.

Florida residents can enjoy many benefits of the futon, a simple piece of furniture that is both versatile and space-efficient. Most Florida residents have frequent visitors to their villas and guest houses, and small rooms need to be furnished with just the right amount of furniture. Florida futons are excellent space savers, and are the ideal piece of multi-purpose furniture for guest rooms and even home office spaces.

Florida Futons for the Guest Room
Florida futons are available in variety of styles and designs, but the best matches for the guest room include love seat, bifold, and trifold styles that are just large enough to accommodate one or two guests. These futons are designed with comfort and space efficiency in mind.Â

The A-Frame Futon Loveseat features a full size futon mattress that can be used as a loveseat by day, and sleeps up to two people at night. It has three separate sections that fold up like an accordion, making it easy to set up and manage in a tight space.

If you’ve got a small studio-style space available, the Studio Futon Loveseat is designed with a minimalistic and versatile style in mind. The simple construction easily converts into a sleeper, and can be covered in a full-length slipcover for an attractive presentation. Add a couple of decorative pillows and you have the complete ensemble!

For a simple wood construction, the Cezanne Futon offers some ‘60s inspiration for a more retro look. It can be accessorized with a classic cover and cushion, and instantly adds some character and style to your living space.

Florida Futons for the Home Office
Many Florida residents work out of their homes, and need a resting area for break time or just some relaxation. Many futon styles are ideal for the home office, and since these are rarely used as sleeper sofas, the futon can be set up in a corner with ease. A few popular home office futon styles include:

The Genoa Black Metal Futon: This futon is lightweight and suitable for a tight budget. It’s a simple, yet stylish, design that can accommodate up to three guests.

Contempo Futon Frame: This modern futon adds a contemporary touch to the office, and features a soft cushion and minimalist design.Â
