Much better than we thought. We were a bit concerned with how large it was; it IS LARGE. Takes up our entire TV room but after using it for a weekend, we're in love. Great to watch TV with the family; great to have s*x on after the kids are long in bed (this is a legitimate statement as this was something we were hoping for; very sturdy with low, wide feet); had a great visit with my sister's family - seven of us on the couch with lots of room! Overall, one of our better Wayfair purchases!
