futon frame

Sofa-bed skeleton structure

A futon frame is the base structure that supports a futon mattress, typically designed to convert between a sofa and a bed.

Unlike traditional bed frames, futon frames fold or articulate to allow the mattress to serve as seating during the day: We need a sturdier futon frame—this one wobbles when you sit down.
