I am writing this review sitting on the longer end cushion. Its very comfy. If you are considering this couch, my opinion is DO IT. Everything about this process has been positive.
1. It will probably come in 2 distinct shipments, so dont fret if it all isnt there after the 1st one. There was some damage to the boxes that looked like it could have impacted stuff inside, but it didnt. Everything was in perfect condition as you can see in the photo.
2. Putting this together was about as easy as it could be. Easy meaning its clear how to do it. The instructions were basic and I had no problems understanding what had to be done. Maybe took me, a middle-age guy in OK health, an hour or so to assemble. You should not have any problems assembling this thing. Heres a tip: one of the boxes contains 2 wooden sticks to keep the fluff inside from rising. Its under pressure and the instructions could have been a little clearer on what do to. I almost gave myself a stroke getting them out, but heres how. Press inwards near one of the ends and pull it out to the side. Dont try to stand on it or use your feet.
3. Give the cushions the 72 hours to expand like they say. These impatient people posting whargarble about cushions probably didnt wait. Look at the cushions in my photo. Are they the most plush experience in existence? No, but this is a sectional couch through the mail and not a $3,000 couch from the furniture store downtown. I slept on this last night, its fine.
4. The ottoman with wooden top is a nice touch for drinks and such. Theres lots of storage in both ottoman and the area under the hydraulic lift covering the cubbie hole in the long end portion.
5. The color and fabric are nice and soft. The metal nodes are understated and I dont think they look obnoxious (that was a concern of mine, that theyd look too stuffy).
All in all I am glad I bought this, because I had my doubts buying a large piece of furniture on (or the web in general). Do it!
Wonderful couch, great choice!
