Id recommend this couch and plan to have it for a while. I got the sectional version of it, so my feedback is more specific to that style.
I did have some trouble in one of the final steps, securing the two pieces together into one sectional- you have to tighten four bolts underneath this couch between the two pieces, which has maybe a foot clearance. It was hard to reach in a way that allowed you to turn the bolt while securing the nut at the same time. I was able to do it, but it was the hardest step of the entire assembly which was otherwise pretty simple to do alone.
I really enjoy this couch though- its very comfortable for almost all uses. The one big flaw is you cant laying across the couch with your head in the corner of the chaise- where the two pieces meet there is a wooden support between (where you secure the two together with those stupid aforementioned bolts) and it IS uncomfortable to have your back against.
Every other use is really great. It can easily fit 4 people, and one of those people could still be laying down on the chaise piece. So really you could get 5-6 people on this couch. Its light, but sturdy. Overall it seems like the ideal cheap couch that is still modern and hey, its also a full bed futon. I havent tested out sleeping on it with the futon back down, but its wide enough to sleep one without converting. The back cushions have a slightly convex shape so i am curious if two people could truly share it for a night. Ill update this if I try it or get feedback.
Overall Im very happy. I love this couch despite it not being perfect. It cost less than $500 when i bought it so keep that in mind, also the price seems to fluctuate.
Worth it, not perfect, overall very solid
