The couch looks bigger and a lot more comfortable in pictures than it really is. The assembly was very easy, so points for that. However, the couch is very hard, uncomfortable and just not cozy. I bought cozy throw pillows in hopes that some comfort would be added to the stiffness of it - still not comfortable. I guess this is what you get for the price. It isn't awful, but if I sat on this couch in some one else's home I would never purchase it. At this point it kind of "is what it is".
