I ordered a Futon base and Mat from [URL Removed] The Mat was fine, however the base (made from untreated Pine) was really badly made. For starters, four screws were missing, while others stuck out (not screwed in properly) or were too deeply screwed in, such that the pointy end of the screw ended up sticking out of the other side of the pine boards! The hinges used are way too small for their application, and the screws holding them into place also stick out the back of the pine boards by about 3-5mm. One of the hinges had been screwed onto a knot in the wood, and subsequently the knot had been dislodged. How can you miss that? Now there is a screw sticking out into the air. Some of the pine boards have a very rough finish (rough sawn), while others are a lot finer. I.e. there is an inconsistency of material quality. Overall, the Pine base is a dreadful piece of work, as if assembled by drunk monkeys. Luckily nobody will see it, and luckily there are no small children or animals around to get stabbed by all the screws! I DO NOT RECOMMEND BUYING FROM THESE PEOPLE.
