What Our Customers Are Saying About Our Futon Store...

"I am very happy with my futon/frame purchase. I called the store and someone helped me find a frame that was in stock and was able to ship the futon to me in a couple of days. And received it 3 business days later, right before Christmas."


- Diego Borja


"I ordered a futon I needed for guests and then picked it up at the store in Burlington. I had great service through email communications and at the store. And it's a great futon! Highly recommend."


- David Barker

"Earlier this year we purchased 2 poly soft mattresses from The Futon Shop. Loved them so much that we bought another one with the frame. The staff, especially Julio, are very helpful and knowledgeable about their products and are so nice to deal with. Excellent products and excellent service."
