I was surprised at how easily put together this couch was. For the cost, it does the job. Works perfectly as a couch in my office for my kids to sit on and will be comfy enough for them to sleep on if we need to give their beds to out of town guests. I had been considering a day bed and trundle, but this is much more practical and less expensive. If you are looking for comfort, you probably will be disappointed. It feels like a 450 couch. But it’s far better than a futon. Very pleased with my purchase.
