Pros: Comfortable, looks great, high back for tall people, sturdy wood with durable black finish, convertible, quick delivery.

Cons: A little difficult to change position (mattress is heavy and falls easily), though it's sturdy once it's in place. The tufting looks nice but is made of plastic -- like a bigger version of those plastic T-shaped clothes tags. This makes the tufting a little uncomfortable to sit on with bare thighs (like when wearing shorts). The material is suede, which looks great but shows crumbs/dirt/dust easily (we have to vacuum it often).

It arrived in 3 heavy packages (frame, sides, and mattress), so it was easy to get it into the elevator and into our apartment. It took my sister and I about 2.5-3 hours to assemble this sofa. It wasn't very difficult (other than lifting the back/seat frame onto the base), it just took a long time. I took other reviewers' advice and watched the assembly videos on their website first.
