We all know that most futons are versatile and functional enough to be laid flat as a bed. We also know that the most common place for a futon is against a wall, since the cavernous back of a futon frame is usually not as aesthetically acceptable a sight as the back of a couch, for example.
But what many people do not know is that those first two statements are not quite compatible. If you want to lay your futon flat into a bed, most of the time, you’re going to have to drag it away from the wall. This is true for the majority of futon frames, regardless of the quality of their components.
Enter the Strata futon frame. This ingeniously designed futon frame features a patented front-loading mechanism that allows you to transform your futon’s mattress from a seat to a bed in one easy movement without having to drag the frame away from the wall! Now you can avoid the risk of scratched walls, frayed carpet, and bruised shins completely. This technology is what transforms a mere futon into a “wall-hugger.”
Ironically, this trait is what allows these frames to have beautifully finished, permanent backs, meaning a Strata frame would actually look as great in the middle of a room as it would against a wall! A catch-22 indeed. But not a worrisome one – these frames are top notch any way you arrange them. Go here to learn more, here to buy!
