It's not the color pictured as another review stated. It's a teal color. Depending on the darkness in the room you can pretend it's forest green. It was 4 out of 5 on easy to put together by yourself. It's not hard but it's a bit firm bcz it seems hollow in the seat. I think from hiding the arms. I'm not uncomfortable on it but don't expect to sink in. It's easy to recline into the bed as well. I'm 5'10. I can lay on it but I cant sprawl out. My head and feet literally touch the arms of the couch. I'd have to do a fetal position to sleep comfortably. So if you have tall friends this may not be the best choice. Great for the price tho. My friends have given me compliments on it.
