Super easy to assemble. Would be easier with 2 people but I managed by myself. 

The faux leather is very nice. 

I have 2 “complaints”  

1) the seat cushions are hard as a rock!  This is definitely a sitting couch, not something you’d lay on to watch tv. For me that’s fine because I’m using it in a sitting room. It wouldn’t work in a family or game room. Too uncomfortable. 

2) the navy blue is almost black. Way darker than the images on Wayfair. I’m not thrilled about that because I wanted a true navy but not dissatisfied enough to return it. For the price, I’ll get over it!
