just moved in recently and wanted a comfy decent sized couch and found it! just wish the back cushions had a bit more cushions and i might buy some more stuffing because i prefer it more cushiony but it’s good enough for a couch for this price. and mine didn’t come with instruction manual but i still put it together bc most of pieces are put together and the screws are already screwed inside so it was easy enough. overall still super comfy and soft and i got the matching ottoman that has storage inside and it all looks great. the ottoman is slightllyyyy a little lighter but it still looks fine in my opinion i still love the whole set. can’t wait to decorate the rest of my place and have everything be put together. my cat loves it too lol but if u have a cat i recommend buying a clear protection sleeve for the sides of couch so your cat doesn’t ruin it due to the scratching. i give the couch a 7.510 for the price and for beginner and small apartment. i recommend!
