After reading a lot of comments about it not being soft, and uncomfortable etc, I was worried. After the incredibly easy assembly, I was relieved to find that my wife and I love this couch. It is a cheap, cost effective option for when you have children that keep ruining furniture. It has a low back, (mid shoulder balde height) is my only complaint. The cushions are not as deep from the front edge to the back rest, which is great for the room I have it in, and smaller people. Larger individuals may find this couch slightly stiff on pressure points and to have small cushions. If it's children or average sized adults, they will fit absolutely fine. My wife and I can both fit to watch a movie laying down. My wife is around 5'8", and myself 5'9" for scale
