Exactly as expected, I love the color, the firmness and sturdiness of the cusions, and how much seating space this provides in my 500 square foot apartment. It’s was so easy to assemble- I didn’t even need instructions! The instructions came in the ottoman box, which arrived the day after I received the boxes with the couch and it took make maybe 30-45 minutes to assemble without a guide. 

Similar to other reviewers, the screws that poke out the back feel like a design error, it wouldn’t prevent me from recommending this couch, but it’s something to note.
