Its backrest measures 34 inches high, helping provide adequate coverage for the back and neck. The sleeper features a true 80-inch-long mattress, which is longer than most traditional sleeper sofas and can accommodate longer legs during sleep. Available in multiple sizes, including up to king, the Queen Plus configuration has an overall width of 83 inches, making it a practical option for those seeking extra space.

Its seat height is 17.5 inches, which is slightly below the preferred range for comfort, and the seat depth measures 21 inches, falling a bit short of the ideal for longer legs.
