I live with 3 roommates and we needed a couch at least 3 of us could comfortable fit on to watch movies, play video games, etc. This couch fits the bill! We were wary of reviews saying the cushions were a little hard, and they're certainly firm, but very comfortable and have loosened up with use! The back cushions provide great support and, in one roomie's words, "it's a perfect nap couch". We love it!
