This couch is not only a statement piece, but it’s comfortable too. It was very easy to put together. The box was pretty heavy, a little difficult to grasp but I’m on the second floor so that was the only obstacle. I recommend two people to carry. It’s a one person job to put together. The legs of the couch are darker than they appear in the photo on the site. A very pretty oak color (see photo attached) I was VERY happy about that. The back of the couch is also adjustable, and does not topple over when laid flat. People can’t believe it’s a futon! It’s firm, but comfortable. Great couch for the price! Enjoy!
