Abstract
A seating unit such as a chair or sofa comprises opposite, upright, rigidly connected side members, a reversible seat cushion having a back face and a reversible back cushion having a bottom face. A beam extending laterally between the side members has its ends rigidly connected to them and supports rod-like forwardly projecting cantilevered legs for the seat cushion and similar upwardly projecting legs for the back cushion. The legs for each cushion are lengthwise slidably received in bores in an internal frame of the cushion that extend inwardly from said face of the cushion. Deep inside each bore is a detent device which is engaged by full installation of the cushion on its legs and which releasably locks the cushion against outward movement on its legs. Each detent device is released by inserting a long, slender splint-like tool into the bore.
