Seems very sturdy so far. Im 63 and weigh 340lbs right now, so I wanted something that was strong and offered enough support. My last couch (love seat actually) was several years old and fairly inexpensive, so it ended up breaking under my weight. It was not very solid at all. This one feels so much more solid- seems to be real wood construction and not that press wood product, but I did not take anything off to check, so I am not 100% sure.
The cushions are removable and reversible, which is good in case, over time, they lose their form. The stuffing seems solid after two weeks. It seems to be down stuffing from the sound it makes. Its very soft, and you can push it around to see creases in the pillows, which tells me its not a solid stuffing piece inside. This is good, as you can fluff it up, as it were when you sit on it too long. Or, I like to sit on the left hand side then rotate the left and right cushions after a few days. If you needed, you could totally find cushions the same size if, for any reason, they lost their shape or form or anything over time. They are completely removable in that manner.
The color is nice, and I like the shape. It is very boxy. The armrests are very square to the seat itself. Its nice and your arm fits nicely there without any discomfort or awkward movements. The distance from the cushions to the top of the armrests is great in that way. Im able to sit comfortably upright. I do wish the couch was taller. I use an ottoman from another couch with this, and it helps because the back is pretty low so sitting upright with your feet on the ground is awkward because its so low to the ground. I can easily slide toward the front of the cushion with my butt and sort of lie/sit in it nicely. I do have to put a big pillow behind the back cushion against the wall, as your head would be on the wall itself which is awkward due to the low nature of the back cushions. A higher back cushion would be so much better for me being 63.
Its a loveseat but each of the two seats is really well sized and easily big enough for two adults. I am not small by any stretch of the imagination, and someone could easily sit next to me and also be nowhere near me. It looks like each cushion is around 28.5 wide. The way the cushions sit on the couch, there are not super tight-fitting together- that is, there is a small gap between the two giving a bit more room between two people.
Sleeping on this would be awkward. I mean, at my height, my legs would be over the sides no matter what, but youd need good head support pushed between the armrest and the cushion you sit on in that the frame is so boxy and angular that way. Your neck would be killing you without good support. Honestly, the cushions you sit on are so long, I can slide my body down far enough to half-sit/half-lie to the point I have fallen asleep in that position numerous times. (Cushions look to be 27.5 long from the back cushion to the front of the cushion...they are longer than this, but some of the bottom cushions hold the back cushions into place, so you lose a couple inches.) I will note that I use a large ottoman that is around the same height as the cushions you sit on, and this makes this way more comfortable for me. If you were shorter, you might not need this, but because the loveseat is so low to the ground, being as tall as I am, its super awkward to sit on it for long periods. With the ottoman, and with my legs outstretched, it works perfectly.
I love it so far. Much better than my old couch. Good size, solid construction, it looks nice, and its very comfortable thus far.
Looks gorgeous and easy to assemble. I bought these thinking I was getting down filled chairs. They are not. They are down wrapped so they are a little bit firmer than expected. That being said, they are beautiful. The leather is very good quality and the color is beautiful. They are very deep and more of a curl up with a book chair not sitting in with your legs on the ground unless you add a pillow to put behind your back. They are big chairs so I would measure before buying. Overall I am very happy and I write very few reviews but was so pleased with these I decided to go ahead and post. These are in a sunroom being redone so its kind of bare. I will also try to post my other pieces I bought for this room. They look a little dark in the pics so the closeup picture is the true color.
If youre trying to decide- buy it. Really gorgeous futon, the centerpiece of my living room. As other reviews have said, its not the best for lounging on for extended periods of time. But its functional and looks great.
Just what I was looking for I fell in love with this futon sofa. Once when I first set eyes on it and the moment it was assembled and I got to sit on it and enjoy its luxury.

Its heavy while assembling it but its worth it!
Ended up liking this chair.

Not the comfiest, but looks great

Great couch
Great couch for the money. The fabric feels great and its so comfy. Not a super structured look, which we really like.
Worth it!

Exceeded my Expectations
This chair is deep and comfortable. High quality leather. Exceeded my expectations. FYI the dark gray color is definitely in the brown family.
