Have only had for 1 day so will update on durability later, but this is truly an excellent deal. Very smart packaging meant it was well protected, and assembly is super straightforward. None of the parts/pieces feel cheap, and although it is firm (which I prefer), it's a comfortable springy firmness. It also looks exactly as pictured -- really clean lines, nice fabric, and overall a sexy piece of furniture. Also, you only need a small amount of clearance behind the couch to fully recline the back cushions, so still an efficient use of space. Again, really an incredible deal for under $300.
