Not exactly different, but later used for something we’d never imagined at the time.
Bought well over 30 years ago, a very simple double sofa bed, no arms, folds down instantly, bought for a spare room that wasn’t big enough for a double bed and dh’s desk. Used only very rarely when we had a real houseful, since we had other room for guests.
That is, until we had Gdcs coming to stay - and I was 67 by the time the first arrived. By the time 1 and 2 were 2 and 3 (now 6 and 7) it was perfect for them to share - very low, so no danger even if they did fall out.
Used so much in recent years!
