Made with a patented sleeper mechanism, the Lino Comfort Sleeper (2008) is easy to open and unfold into a comfortable queen-sized sleeping surface. The length of the bed is a full 80", yet it uses 12" less space than conventional sleeper sofas. The space is saved by removing the gap that many sleep sofas have between the mattress and the back of the sofa, which also solves the problem of your pillow falling into that gap while you sleep. What’s also unique about Lino is that the apron of the sofa actually moves with the mattress, giving the open sleeper the finished look of an actual bed. The sleeping surface is based on a European platform bed, and consists of a high-density 5" foam mattress that rests entirely on a wooden platform, which means you won’t feel the sturdy crossbar underneath. This mattress is covered with a waterproof barrier of Crypton ticking to protect against spills. The mattress is attached to the platform for easy opening and closing of the sofa, but can be removed for cleaning and maintenance. When closed, the Lino comfortably seats three. The upholstery is 100% cotton fabric from a small family-run mill in Italy. Due to the weight of this item, it ships with White Glove delivery service. Made in U.S.A.
