This is a great buy. Very easy to assemble, took about 30 mins. The only hard part of assembly was determining the way the feet should be positioned. The manufacturer should add some sort of marking to assure that the feet are all aligned the same way. But, minor inconvenience for such a comfy couch. Doesn't need any breaking in, cushions are very soft. Long enough for a 6' person to lay o as well. Great buy and very happy with this purchase.
