I think that the answers thus far clearly indicate it is simply a matter of preference. The unfortunate part would be for you to buy one and find out that you didn't like it. I prefer a bed, but sleep on them when we stay overnight at the in-law's house. Just to give some support to some things previously said.... 1- All the additional information about the care of futons by Robyn. 2- Aya's comment about it perhaps being a bit more difficult getting up off a futon. I have some back problems sometimes and although the futon doesn't seem to cause the problem, getting up can require more effort and pain when it is acting up. 3- The idea of using a quilted liner is a good idea. Easier to wash than the whole futon. It all comes down to a matter of preference.
