A unit of furniture readily convertible from a settee to a sleeper has a base member on which a seating member is normally disposed in overlying disposition and hingedly attached thereto by upholstery covering along a common edge thereof. The seating member has a pair of arm supports hingedly connected to the base member along the same edge. At least one back support is hingedly connected to the seating surface of the seating member for pivoting from a substantially upright disposition onto the seating surface. A bolster member is hingedly connected on the top of a rear cross member for pivoting into the space left vacant by the back support members when the latter have been pivoted onto the seating surface. When the back support members and bolster members are so pivoted into side-by-side disposition with the base member for use as a sleeper.
