Futons are fast becoming one of the most sought after pieces of furniture for many homes these days. Gone are the days where futons are considered to be the "Jeeps" of home furnishings. Nowadays, with updated, modern styling, and health and sleep benefits that they provide, futons are fast becoming the "Mercedes-Benz" for the living room or bedroom. In a fast-paced, busy world, we‘re seeing a need to simplify our lives through convenience. More people are dining at fast-food chains (where even salads and fruits can be purchased for the health-conscious), shoes have incorporated wheels on the soles for riding around, and almost any products you can think can be purchased online at the comfort of your own home. With that said, people have found a way to make everyday living at their own homes more convenient; by replacing their conventional couches (and in some cases, their beds) with a futon.

In recent years, the consolidation of living spaces has made even low square feet home multipurpose enough to resemble a full-fledged home. Multitasking and multi-purposing are the goal of this category of fold-out furniture and multifunction seats and couches. An obvious example is the futon mattress. Originating in Japan, the futon has existed for quite awhile and was used are the primary bed. Typically it was filled with softening things, so that it was comfortable, but also flexible. The primary advantage is that the Japanese would fold it up and place it in a closet during the day so that the room could be used for another function. Although this the entomology and history of the futon mattress, it is still pertinent to today‘s definition. In traditional Japanese culture, this is still the primary function of the futon.
