minor adjustments may be needed for secure assembly; make sure to put the legs on LAST!
It looks very nice, and for someone who likes a firm bed (like me) you could even spend the night on this couch. Mine is white, and it came in excellent, clean condition. The ottoman bench is as long as a small love seat, and I use it as extra seating (up against a wall) or as a coffee table (with a tray on top of it). A word or two of advice about assembly: everything IS included, but be sure to search for it wherever the black underneath of the couch/base parts is able to be pulled away. The tools you need are also included. I found that, when joining together the chaise lounge part to the other part of the sofa base (the two/cushion part), the given screws were a bit too short to secure nuts on either side. Perhaps for someone with more strength than me it would have been sufficient. But I went out and bought longer screws to make sure the two parts were securely anchored. Also // it is VERY important to attach the sofa arms tight to the sofa, especially if you intend to lean on them occasionally while sitting. Thirdly, as others have noted, the velcro attaching the ottoman/bench cushion to the ottoman bench are mismatched (their placement is off and , moreover, they are two fuzzy sides instead of one fuzzy and one catchy). I bought two, 3/4 wide velcro strips at the corner hardware store and that has done the trick. The cushion stays on perfectly. Finally, dont put any of the legs on until everything else (like, the whole sofa) is assembled, because you will need to access the underside of the couch repeatedly while assembling the sofa. I was able to put this together myself, but I will say it took some head scratching to figure out what was what and where it went. The instructions were mostly helpful. I have had it a little more than a week and am very happy. I am 59 and long/legged. I find the chaise lounge part is the perfect length for me. Any dirt that has appeared (i was moving in, so things got bumped) I have wiped off easily with a damp cloth. It was perfect!
