What is your experiences of sleeping on a futon? My friend says that they are very uncomfortable but they do seem to be such a good idea.

They are veeeerrrrrrryyyyyy uncomfortable

I've never slept on a futon but I did lie awake all night on one once. Awful. Good luck in finding a comfy one.

I'd rather sleep on the floor with a quilt.

I have lied all night awake on one toobut if you fall out it doesnt hurt

Thanks to you all for your responses. That has made the decision for me.

Back to the drawing board.

Oh blessTrouble is they look nice,but........
hope you you find something sutable,

his gingerness and i had one when we were first together, many a happy hour was had on it! i find them quite comfortable really!

I like them.............am I weird?

Err Yep!

we bought one, but after trying it out one night, went straight out and bought a foam mattress for it

Im dying to know what you decided

No decision made yet apart from not buying a futon. I thought that a chair style futon would be more practical when the visitors are not here but do not want them to be uncomfortable so will probably end up buying more beds.

Thanks for your interest.
