Our lab jumped on it and the legs on one side broke (currently held up with books---Dan Quayle's biography, anyone?) instantly. The pillows do squish and squirm all over the place. Overall, it quickly became a lumpy mess, but this may be our fault? Comfy for naps, though! Bought an Ektorp (not the sleeper model) a few years ago.

I've had LOTS of guests sleep on it. All have said how surprised they were at how comfortable it is. (I threw an egg crate on top of the mattress. That usually helps a lot, and it's a cheap fix.) The one complaint I have about it is that the cushions tend to slip off when you're sitting on it. But, in the grand scheme of things, that's minor.

Take it with a grain of salt. I hadn’t read the comments before, and, apparently, some people found problems with the design of that particular hack. Take it with a grain of salt.
