Is there a GUI utility to mount remote filesystems over SSH?
Solution 1
It's not clear to me if you are strictly bound to using sshfs, but by default the GVFS in GNOME supports SSH connections. In the file manager go to File -> Connect to server:
This will mount the remote SSH server in a folder you can access from the file manager. If you need to access the mount in the command line it's in .gvfs.
You can also mount it in Nautilus. Just hit CTRL+L and in the address bar type: ssh://server-ip/somepath/
Solution 2
Another option is Gigolo:
(Click above to install).
Solution 3
If you just need to access the remote filesystem, you should be able to go to sftp://hostname.example.com in your file browser without having to mount it.
Solution 4
Nautilus can do it: File-->Connect to a server

m3nda about 9 yearsThis is not a ssh filesystem integration. The goal of the sshfs is that you can access files with the usual way, ie: /myserver and not ssh://blablabla.

Mehrad Mahmoudian almost 5 yearsThis is not the answer since the software you mentioned only do sftp and does not mount sshfs. (I don't downvote, but technically you have not answered the question)
