Futon Sofa Bed Instructions

Futons are the classic dorm room piece of furniture, mostly due to their unique design that enables them to be transformed from couch to bed in a few steps. Because of their ease of use and the fact that manufacturers are beginning to make them more comfortable for sitting in, futons are making their way into regular homes more and more. There are several different design types for futons, but none of them make the transformation into beds difficult.

  Pull the backrest of the futon forward until you hear a click, and then push it all the way down until the whole futon is flat. Extend the support pieces on the back portion of the futon if it has them, and then begin using your futon sofa bed. If your futon doesn't transform this way, continue to Step 2.

  Pull the front of the futon mattress frame forward while simultaneously pushing the backrest downward. The futon will begin transforming; continue pulling and pushing until the mattress is flat. If your futon doesn't transform this way, continue to Step 3.
