You do have to assemble it, so the “fully assembled” information is deceptive in my opinion. The brackets to slide the back piece into place were uneven, therefore my couch is not comfortable and hurts my back. The bottom cushion can’t be flipped around to even the wear and tear, so this couch probably won’t last as long as others. A bit disappointed. It is too much of a pain to return due to it being heavy. Two stars because the shade of green is really nice to look at.
