One of the (hollow plastic) legs of the couch was damaged upon arrival. There were no assembly instructions. For the most part it was easy to figure out, but I’m still a bit confused as to why there is Velcro on some cushions that doesn’t seem to match up to anything, and a covering for the back of the couch that has Velcro that doesn’t attach to anything...just sort of flaps open. Maybe someone can explain to me? Anyhow. This is a cheap couch. I needed something that could be delivered, and something I could afford. So I opted new instead of used. But I would say if you want good quality for $500 go for a used if you have a way to transport it. I love the color. I am glad to have something to lay on or for people to sit on when I have company. And this is about what I expected.
