It's a very nice looking couch that is easy to assemble and is perfect if you need to maneuver it into a tight space as you can bring all the pieces in one at a time and assemble it in place. The reason only 3 stars is that it's not very comfortable if you need to sit on it for a long period of time (watching a movie for instance). If you need it more for guests in a living room and occasional use, I'd give it 4 starts, but if you're buying it to sink into and watch TV, I'd recommend against it.
