We're looking at getting one for Zamara for Christmas....
... who has one? Would you recommend it? How do they hold up over time and kids?

We've got one the same style as Kellz', I got it when Maya was about 2 and it's survived OK, albeit a bit scruffy looking now! The problem I had was that when I took the cover off to wash it I had a mission of a job to get it back on again afterwards and it's never quite folded the same since. But it does the job just fine.

We bought a kids sofa from Target August this year and it's very sturdy. The only problem with it is that the material doesn't seem to be particularly hard wearing ie pilling slightly. Also not a bed. Cath loves it though, and so does our friends 4 year old.

I agree I just washed mine and it was a mission getting it back together. Apart from that it was worth every cent Jack sleeps on it during the day and both kids love sitting on it.

Z has one but its a single Barbie one! Not sure where my parents got it from?? She loves sitting on it to watch TV...But when she leans back too far ...she falls backwards!! LOL
Its ok to sit on with just that one problem!!
I think the fold out ones in KMart are better and stronger....and I agree with the ones in Target...they are awesome looking!! Just to chuncky for my little house!!

we have one of those kids fold out ones too. ours is looking a bit the worse for wear tho with two boys using it all over the house... it gets jumped on and they roll themselves in it and when the cousins come over they try and fit four on it...

we've got a little blue fold out couch, got it from the warehouse for about $39 or $49? FANTASTIC. They both love it, they flod it out and put a blanket over their legs and watch tele, so cute. Am going to get Missy one of her own for her birthday as sometimes they fight over it...
