After just a year, it looks like this 'grass' went through a drought and died. Seriously, I bought the julius grass ottoman recently and the colors are drastically different. Take the warning on the pull-out seriously: All fabric will fade over time. Avoid direct sunlight. Kinda hard to do when you live in the sunshine state, though. For the price, I feel like the fabric should fair better. My love for CB2 is starting to fade like their fabrics. :(
The sofa is really nice and comfortable enough. The color is really beautiful (pics do not do it justice) and the texture of the fabric is interesting. The sleeper function though could be better: pulling this out is quite hard and the construction is not really sturdy. I am always afraid that something will break.

This sofa/bed is perfect for my little townhome! I purchased it because I frequently have guests and I don't have an extra bedroom. I have slept on the pull out and it sleeps extremely well. The mattress is thick enough that the bars don't grind into your back. The description says it sleeps dreamy ... and it does! Sometimes I sleep on it even when I don't have guests.
It is unusual to find sofas for smaller living rooms, I had been looking for more than a year, for a couch that is unique, functional and at a good price point. The size is large enough for 3 small people to sit on or 2 large people.
"Julius" is a gem! The color of the sofa "pops" against my red wall and the fabric brushes clean.
If you are looking for a perfect addition to your living room, look no further. This piece is chic, comfortable and functional - having the twin bed pull-out is great for impromptu sleepovers, or days when you just want to lounge in front of the TV. The color pops and is cheerful year-round - I highly recommend this piece.

Showing Wear
Date:01/08/2013
This sofa fits so perfectly in my small apartment. Plus the color really brightens things up. As much as I like it, I have to say after a year I'm somewhat disappointed in how the fabric is wearing. Others have mentioned how the fabric on the cushions wrinkles. On my sofa the cover no longer fits snugly on the cushion and it looks sloppy. I'm also noticing wear on the arms. Months ago I noticed some pretty prevalent wear on the cushion and I sent a photo to customer service. They said it was normal wear and wouldn't replace the cover. I live alone so beside friends and family coming over, I wouldn't say the sofa has been excessively used or abused. I recommend buying this sofa with hesitation

I purchased this sleeper sofa a couple months ago. It is the perfect size for my small loft. I love the color and the fabric. It's quite comfortable. The item was delivered on time and in perfect condition. I'm quite happy with my purchase! The CB2 salesperson at the Atlanta location was friendly and helpful.

Nice sofa to lounge even for a big dude. It is definitely more of a lime green than yellow. I'd say the alternate picture of it where its in front of the white brick wall is the most accurate color-wise. The fabric on the cushion tends to wrinkle easily.

We purchased this sofa and put it in a smaller second bedroom which we've converted into a den. It's the perfect sofa for lounging and napping on. Amazing colour, super comfy, and the sleeper is a bonus! Wish our room was bigger so we could get the matching ottoman.

We got this for a smaller bedroom that was converted to our media room. This sofa is the perfect pop of color, it's solidly built, and the way the armrests angle slightly out is really great to just lounge and watch movies or read. The twin sleeper has actually been really useful for when just one person sleeps over or if we need extra beds when we have a lot of company. I absolutely love it, and we continue to get a lot of compliments.
Please make this in a NON sleeper, with a cheaper price. The color is perfect. Just the 999.00 price......Would also like to see a bright Orange or brighter Yellow.
Purchased for a small multi-purpose room (exercise, office and spare bedroom). Looks great in the room, still leaves plenty of floor space for room's other purposes. Bed is sturdy and sofa is comfortable.

I purchased this for my guest room, which also gets used for watching tv once in a while. The sofa is small, but the cushions are comfortable and I enjoy sitting on it. The pull out is comfortably sized for one. Best of all for me is the look of it, the bright color pop and high sides make me SO happy to have it for my guests to compliment me on :) !
i feel this couch makes a real statement in my new apartment and so far i am very happy with it. i think it is the perfect size for me and my bf, plus the pull out is an added bonus for sleepovers. my only complaint is the cushion wrinkles up a lot, doesn't bother me as much as my bf.
