Training your luxurious futon mattress to bend
Futons have evolved in thickness and plushness, whether they be a firm wool wrap or soft touch or visco coil. How do these mattresses of 8 inches or more adapt to dual duty for couches and sleeping? Joanne demonstrates a solution to breaking in a visco coil mattress so it easily converts from bed to couch. Enjoy this Youtube Nikita video.

Here’s a man cave I could live with … ready for the 2011 Super Bowl XLV Sunday game
Last spring I posted about Nikita Convertibles being perfect for the “man cave” environment and asked readers to send pics of their own man caves. Here’s a response to my query, courtesy of Pat F. from Clifton Park, NY.
Pat’s man cave is furnished with a Nikita Scandia Sofabed, Chair and Ottoman of cherry wood with oil finish. The chair’s box cushions are Faux Leather (a washable fabric called Pecos). The sofabed sports a Feathertouch mattress with a slip cover of “Atomic” pattern fabric. The Scandia sofa “leans back” and converts to a full size bed (hope the game and quirky commercials aren’t snoozers!). The chair and ottoman combo make a cot size bed. The Nikita chair has our sure stop recline feature for finding the perfect lean back angle. Nice. This man cave is ready for the playoffs and the big day: Super Bowl Sunday. Hope the Jets make it! Did I mention the wall mounted flat screen TV in this basement man cave renovation? Not first on my list because I am coveting the rich cherry furniture.
Hurry on down to Nikita Convertibles at 7 Elm Street, Oneonta, NY or 508 Broadway, Saratoga Springs, and you can have furniture for your man cave ready by Super Bowl XLV (February 6, 2011). Or visit our website: JustLeanBack.com or our new Etsy Store.
Meet Yuliya, Sales Associate at Nikita Indoor Outdoor Saratoga Springs this summer
Yuliya relaxes on a cot size chaise longue, ash with expresso finish, fabric pattern: spree.
Stop by and say hi to Yuliya, our new Sales Associate at the Nikita Indoor Outdoor Convertibles showroom, 508 Broadway, Saratoga Springs. Yuliya attends Fashion Insititute of Technology (FIT) in New York City, has achieved an Associates Degree in Interior Design and is working toward a Bachelor’s Degree in Business.
Here’s what Yuliya has to say about Nikita Convertibles:
I came home for the summer and looked around for a job in my field of interest and was intrigued by Nikita furnishings. I’ve never seen anything like this convertible furniture design even in New York City, where you can usually find anything. Convertible furniture fills so many needs, I was immediately taken with its versatility and surprised to find it right here in Saratoga Springs.
Yuliya is happy to put her knowledge and experience to work to answer any furniture questions or help you with design decisions.
Speaking of New York City, our next road appearance will be at the American Crafts Festival at Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts on the weekend of June 19-20, 2010. Hours are noon to 9:00 pm on Saturday and 10 am to 9pm on Sunday. Hope 2010 graduates who are moving to their first homes or apartments, and those seeking contemporary modern furniture and space saving solutions for indoor and outdoor living spaces will stop by and lean back and experience comfortably designed sofabeds, loveseats, chairs and chaise longues.

Case environment #12 Furniture for the man cave
Where’s your man cave?*
By “man cave” I mean that specially equipped male sanctuary where you kick off dust from a stressful day and relax, take a step back to reflect and do what you enjoy. Is it the spare bedroom that’s your personal sports shrine, paying homage to favorite teams, players or housing your own trophies? Or a media room where you kick back and kick butt in virtual video game worlds? Perhaps you venture outdoors and seek solace in a deck or garden environment. Or you’ve created a separate garage or shop building to pursue hobbies and play.
Nikita Indoor Outdoor creates affordable custom convertibles for every environment and the man cave is no exception. Indoors or outdoors, we’ve got what you need to just lean back and unwind. If your room does double duty as an overnight guest bedroom, our sofas, loveseats and chairs fit together as double, queen or king beds. Our furniture boldly (and easily) moves where you go–it’s on wheels. Of course we can’t leave man’s best friend out of the picture; you may customize your furniture to be pet friendly by choosing washable slip covers or a waterproof underlining.
To celebrate the opening of our Saratoga Springs store, Nikita Indoor Outdoor is giving away a chaise lounge (converts to twin bed) to one lucky person in September 2010. It would be a great addition to den or mancave.
To enter the give-away, stop by either of our store locations: 508 Broadway, Saratoga Springs, NY (518)796-1887 (closest to the Albany area) or 7 Elm Street, Oneonta, NY (607)267-4623 (serving Norwich, Binghamton and upstate NY towns & hamlets in between) for a demo and see our furniture in action. All you will have to do is “just lean back.”
PS We’d love seeing and posting mancave pics: e-mail them to mary@JustLeanBack.com Let’s have fun with this and see what you come up with!

P.S. Nikita convertibles are made of 100% solid hardwood, a renewable resource, and are made locally here in upstate New York State, made in U.S.A. They’re sustainable and all wood we use is from FSC Certified Mills, so they qualify as green building materials.
P.S.S. Can’t wait to blog more and show pics of my Nikita sofabed, loveseat and chair gracing my one-room schoolhouse home.
