apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

This reminds me of these things my (fairly design-conscious) grandparents used to have--they were these low chairs that folded out into beds. They didn't have a hard frame like this one; the whole thing was an upholstered firm foamy material. We slept on them when were were little, and they were pretty comfy--better than a sleeping bag, or a futon, anyway.

Jenny - in highschool we'd giggle and call those things a "flip and f*ck"

I remember those chairs! They were great for making forts. Not very pretty though.

Ack! Please don't make me associate the term "flip and f*ck" with my grandparents.

Really this doesn't look so bad, though. We're trying to get rid of our guest bed so we can free up our extra room for our office/getting some me-time/playing guitar area.

I could totally see two of these under the windows or, if they are low enough, in front of a small couch as a coffee table.

When friends come over, *presto* bed! No more feeling like a heel because I ask them to bring a bed roll in order to crash on our wood floors.

No no no... the "flip and f*ck" had that stupid round roll on the top... staple of college furniture, at least here in the midwest.

flip and fuck is what i like to do with my boyfriend

I'm actually looking for one of those F&F (I'd never heard the term before!) sofas. Just a cheap, college-y thing. Just like Nicole, I'm trying to make more room for music in the guest bedroom/office/studio, and a foam couch that folded out would do the trick. Does anyone know where one can find them? I don't think they should be anywhere near the price of the Bo Concept ottoman.
