Product is light weight and requires no assembly!  The back of the sofa is very low, much lower than the actual cushions. So, if you don't plan on putting this up against a solid wall you may not be able to lean back comfortably.  The back i would say only comes up a 1/4 of the way up the back side of the cushions.  The seating is rather hard but still comfortable.  Very easy to pull out and gray color is very pretty.  Overall for the cost this is a good product but would like the back to be up a little higher.
