At first I thought this couch was a waste of money and I was pretty frustrated.  However after a week, the cushions have filled out and it is actually not a bad couch.  The price was a little steep, but we had to get a couch to a 3rd floor apartment up a narrow staircase, so being able to put it together was a real bonus.  It went together very easily - and is not too heavy to move around, but heavy enough to feel solid.
