It is a bit small but I think it's good for a first couch and apartment living. My roommate and I are about 5'4 and petite so it's good for us and my dog. We'll probably add stuffing to the cushions and add a couple of throw pillows at some point but it's comfortable enough for us and the dog approves of it. The dog is a husky and 60 pounds if that gives any further clarity on the sizing of the couch.
