This is a very good looking sofa and ours arrived very well-packed in the box and with no dents. However, it is very difficult to assemble, which I'm surprised more reviews didn't mention. You have to force the arms on at an odd angle. We had to put the seat face down on the ground and bend it to get them on. (Definitely follow the instructions not to tighten all the screws until the end!) Also, I'm really skeptical that this could hold 750 pounds, or even the weight of two full sized adults using it regularly. While the seat and the base seem sturdy, all of the weight rests on the thin hooks and thin metal pieces hanging from the base. I sat on this with my husband and small child, probably around 400 lbs of weight and it was creaking and the screws already look a little bent.
