I guess I messed up thinking $600 dollars for a couch was going to result in having a useful piece of furniture. It's annoying to put together. The arm rests are difficult to tighten and wiggle even after using a deep socket set to tighten them. Legs are flimsy and poorly built. The cushions are hard. The recline motion is unreliable to operate while sitting down. If I want the middle reclining position I have to get up and lay it back gently. Save your money and buy something a little less cheaply made.
