This is a simple piece, nothing fancy but it works perfectly as a small sofa in a room where you don't have lots of extra space. I open it out full width to lie on for reading or watching tv since the seat is a little narrow when the back is upright. Comfortable for sitting, especially if you are a short person - my feet touch the floor! Very good for an extra guest bed (would be more comfortable with a bed pad for sleeping on). Beautiful color! Goes well with my tan walls and multiple browns and golds in my other furniture and rug. Easy to assemble.
