This couch is actually so comfy, the hooks on the slide keep the sections from sliding apart. One of the legs did come with a gash in the wood, but I am going to glue it together and it’s honestly hidden. Very cozy and fits 4 people easily! Highly recommend this - also have gotten a ton of compliments on the color, I was scared it was going to be too dark but I think it’s perfect for a my cozy style
