Frustrating assembly. Parts backwards. Called Kodiak and they sent two replacement parts for the part we thought was backward, only to take it a part again, but it back together, and realize another part was actually wrong (now think it was the main seat frame). We have it assembled now and its a comfortable futon, but to have to assemble and reassemble multiple times makes it not worth it to me. Purchased a memory foam mattress for the top as a sleep space. It is in our home office and looks nice. Also, tip to follow YouTube instructional video - makes assembly much quicker.
