This couch is beautiful! I needed an upgrade in my apartment, but didn't want to spend loads of money. This sofa is a wonderful happy medium. The delivery service was top notch! I do recommend paying a little extra to have it delivered to your room of choice, as the box is massive. I'm a petite woman, and have put together plenty of furniture, but the 7ft box would have been terribly difficult to maneuver alone. Assembly was very easy, everything was wrapped carefully, and the cushions Velcro into place. The seat is on the firmer side, like a number of other reviews mention, but I rather like it. There is enough give to feel comfortable, but the support is great for when I want to sit and work for an extended period of time. If you've been debating, I highly recommend going for it. It's even better looking in person!
