It is a very nice couch, the charcoal coloring is great! It was almost too easy to assemble and pretty much already together in the box upon arrival. I red the reviews and knew it would be small, but that was fine for me because I am also small. But, let me tell you, it is S M A L L. I am little 5'2" lady and this couch can fit me lying down alone or me and one other person sitting. But, for just me in an apartment for one, it fits perfectly and my pets love sitting on it too.
