I have a small 2 bedroom house, so my living room is not that big. I am a hesitant buyer when looking online because I like to see and feel the product myself. When I got this Sofa I was surprisingly excited because it took less than 5 minutes to put together! The material is soft but firm; adjusting it to a bed is easy as well. I slept on it the first night and was surprised it was comfy for me. It's not super soft where your body can sink into it, but for me I like it firm. Also if you are over 5'6 your feet will be hanging off and when you sit it might not support your upper half. But if you like me whose 5'2 its perfect =)
