13 Best Dorm Futon Options That Are Surprisingly Stylish

Looking for the best dorm futon options to create the perfect hangout area in your room? Here are the best futons currently on the market!

If you are lucky enough to have space in your dorm for a seating area, you 100% need to use it! Traditional dorms usually only have enough room for two beds, but many suite-style dorms also have an extra seating area or even an entire living room as well!

If you're living in a dorm this year, it is such a good idea to have a small couch or futon to use. More seating equals more space for friends to sit and hang out! Plus, who doesn't want a comfy place to sit back and relax, watch Netflix, and take naps after a long day of school?

Whether you are looking for a small dorm futon for the corner of your room, a larger comfy one for your suite-style dorm, or even just a futon to use under your lofted bed, these are the best dorm futons you are guaranteed to love.

This post is all about dorm futon options.

If you want a more sophisticated look to your dorm room, a white leather futon is a way to go. The best part about this futon is you can use it as a sofa for friends to sit on, but you can also lean it back to convert it to a bed! Your friends will appreciate being able to sleep on this when they visit you rather than an air mattress on the floor.

Plus, this dorm futon is one of the best prices out there. If you are on a budget but still want a super usable living area in your dorm, this is the best one to get.

8. Strasburg Tight Back Convertible Sofa

Currently obsessing over this sleek black futon, it's the perfect futon for both college guys and girls to have in their dorm room.

10. Mainstays Memory Foam Futon

This memory foam futon is another amazing option Walmart offers. It can be folded up to create armrests when you are using it as a couch and can also be folded completely down to use as a bed; it's one of the only you can find that works completely as both, so if you like the idea of having both a sofa and a bed consider buying this.

When shopping for your dorm futon, definitely consider looking on Wayfair. They have thousands of options, so you are bound to find one you like.

A ton of my friends used this exact one in their dorm room and ended up loving how it looked. It also comes in 5 other colors if you are worried about getting white dirty!

12. Modway Prospect Channel Tufted Upholstered Velvet Loveseat

Now I know this isn't technically a "futon," but because dorm rooms tend to be so small, I figured I had to add it in for those of you working with such little space; this is the perfect size to use in dorm rooms under your lofted bed or between you and your roomie's beds as a shared seating area.
