So far, excellent! I'm very impressed, even though one piece is missing three washers. Otherwise, once you figure out how the first piece goes together, the rest are a breeze. There were too many holes and the diagram with the instructions was not clear to me. If there had been just a little more explanation, such that the holes in the top of the seat base were for the clips to hold the pieces together, or to disregard the holes in the small wooden blocks underneath, I would have had an easier time of it to begin with. I love the firmness and the velvet is soft and comfy. I have two more pieces to go and can't wait to lounge around on it. It is large, so be sure to measure! Love being able to configure the pieces in different ways. I'm going to thoroughly enjoy this.
