Good quality, surprisingly comfortable in sitting position, sturdy but lightweight. Just don't expect to sleep dead center as there is a long beam there. This is by no means a replacement for a bed, but if you want to stretch out watching TV this is near perfect. The wide offset base is great and provides excellent stability when sitting on either side if it is folded flat.

The back looks quite clean (back is some smooth black fabric it looks decent, but I would recommend putting it against a wall or at least add a table, although clean its not a center of the living room piece. Wipes easy and pretty resistant to stains.
