The cover fabric is really nice and I love the color.  i had help to put it together,but it all went really smoothly and it was assembled in less than 10 minutes. I waited a couple of days then put it in mattress shape.  It is a firm queen mattress and comfortable for me.  My queen mattress pad and queen sheets fit perfectly.  I really like the flexibility of the couch and I have gotten positive reactions for sitting on it.  It will get it's final test when it will be used as a bed when guests arrive in one week. It would have gotten 5 stars if the mattress was higher, but I am not sure how that could be done considering the design.
