Advantages: easy to use, cheap

Disadvantages: uncomfortable

I have the smallest bedroom in my house, and being a student, need a desk and bookcase, and other such furniture, which leaves very little space.
My mum had a good idea, to get a futon, something that could be used as a bed at night, and as a chair in the day, leaving space in my room, and it was small enough to fit round furniture.
This was a very good idea, and has proved successful, except for being incredibly lazy, and not putting the futon back up during the day!!
The futon i own is a single one, and is meant for occasional use. Therefore it is not overly comfortable. The "mattress" is very heavy, and i have no idea what it is made of, but it was comfortable for the first month or so.
After that, it kind of moulded into the shape of my body, so you could feel the slats underneath. To solve this, i brought some foam from where i work. This is perfect. Now i have no problems at all. It is very comfortable. The foam has a storage place in my room, and it is a very useful chair in the day. I have plenty of room to manouvre around.
This is a very cheap solution to a small space problem.
