I really enjoy the sectional so far. It looks exactly like the picture, albeit a bit smaller than I anticipated but it works perfectly for our apartment. If you have a larger living room area, I would recommend a larger sectional. I was able to assemble the sectional by myself in about 10-15 minutes tops but it really does feel sturdy. I wouldn't recommend more than 2 adults on it at a time, even though it could easily fit 3-4.
