Well I've had this for about a month. It was relatively easy to put together by myself. Not quite as sturdy as I'd like but held up fine so far. I do find myself moving to different parts of the sofa to spread out the compression evenly. It did come with a tear in the faux leather, but that turned out to be on the back of the sofa so I didn't complain about it until this review. I use it everyday, but this probably would be a better sofa for light or occasional use. I have mostly been sitting up on it, rather than laying down. It's fine, but mostly it's the sturdiness/tightness of the fit that has me concerned for the long term.
