Good quality furniture.  Mattress is great - comfortable and the fabric is beautiful. Instructions are terrible.  Not very clear at all.  We both have master's degrees and had a difficult time following the instructions.  There were actually 2 pieces of the bed that were not in the written instructions, but we figured out where they went by looking at the picture! I recommend redo their instructions.Other than the difficulty in assembly, it really is a very nice futon.
