The sectional came in four very large boxes. Each section was packed in boxes, all you need to do is to attach them all together. Assembly is easy but definitely require two people. I recommend ordering delivery to specific room as the boxes are heavy for just one person. I really love the couch. It gives the feeling of modern look to my living room. The sectional has a firm feel (moderate). At first i thought that it is too firm for me that i would not like it, but i was surprised that when i put them together and have actually used it for several weeks, i kinda love the moderate firmness of it. It has soft velvety feel because of the material of the cover. If you want a plush and sinking soft couch, this is not it. I was just a little disappointed that one of the covers seems to have damage and one of the leg has crack. But Wayfair’s customer service was oustanding to provide me a solution. Overall, this sectional is a beauty and is all worth it. Thank you very much Wayfair!
