Futon loungers, sofas and beds are great to have because of their comfort and versatility. They can easily be folded and stored away. It is useful when you are always having family and friends visiting. Futons blend well in zen style and eastern style environments.
Futon is the expression Americans use to refer to the traditional Japanese bedding system. Japanese use the word shikibuton, meaning mattress. The American concept expanded to a broader definition, which includes either the mattress, or the convertible furniture it sits upon, or both. According to Wisegeek
