Nelson Daybed/Case study daybed  

i have the case study bed...
i have the case study daybed (modernica)
Main issue with it is the lack of arms didnt really consider this when i was buying not having them really limits how you can can sit on it, always feels like you in a waiting room 🙁
Personally when i sit on a sofa I either lean against the arms or put my back against them and stretch my legs out along it
(modernica offer a version with arms which would address this problem)
its pretty comfortable apart from that not to deep and the back cushions are nicely supportive, it also makes a great bed to sleep on,

Like a beautiful rock
I considered this as my primary couch for a number of years, but every time I came back to it I couldn't reconcile myself with the comfort level. It is a beautiful piece, and if I had space I would put one in a guest room or in an office - but IMO it is not primary couch material. And I find the main aesthetic appeal is without arms - so another consideration above.
I don't know enough about furniture construction to know if it is the cushions, or the support that is the main culprit. The Modernica version has a spring/canvas support; the DWR version has solid wood slats. (I haven't tried the DWR version yet) I suppose you could buy it and have the cushions re-filled with a softer density foam.

also looking at getting one
This is disappointing to hear, as I was also considering purchasing one for the extra bedroom/study. Has anyone used it as a bed? How comfortable is it for this purpose?

Not the foam...
I too have one which was my primary sofa for years. And I agree with LS. It's not primary sofa material. However, I have since moved it to my study where it is a wonderful fit for lounging while reading and such. The issue with the comfort is firstly due to the lack of arms already mentioned(and no, I do not like the armed versions). But the height of the back cushions and depth of the seat are the main factors. The seat is so deep most are unable to sit facing forward with any comfort with the very low back support. However, lounging and napping are accomplished with relative ease on this piece. It is a daybed after all.

I agree too
your primary sofa/davenport/couch/chesterfield usually would have arms...it's a crisper, more formal look.
Daybeds and modular armless seating is a bit more informal, isn't it?

Ok thank you for the...
Ok thank you for the replies.
The reactions are a bit disappointing but not completely unexpected.
[However : if Beyonce comes with the daybed I'm gonna buy one anyway ;)]
