Couch is very easy to assemble, it took less than a half hour and did not require any assistance. I bought one in Ash and the color is basically as pictured, only a more neutral shade (It looks slightly blue on my screen). The loveseat looks exactly as pictured, except there is a 1" gap between the back and bottom cushions on one side (next the arm rest). I've taken it apart and reassembled it several times (with help from another person) but it seems to a problem with the product itself, not the assembly. The gap is easily hidden by a throw pillow so it's not a deal breaker, but it does detracts from an otherwise great looking loveseat.

It's also not the most comfortable piece of furniture in the world. I'm used to Mid Century inspired furniture, so I expected it to be on the firm side but this is very firm. Not uncomfortable, but not the kind of piece you want to spend hours lounging on either. On the plus side, the fabric is nice and has stood up well to my cat's claws.
