I am rather surprised by this couch.
I was feeling quite ambitious when I ordered it, and I am glad that I decided to make the plunge.
I think for a 300 sofa, its great. Its perfect for my purpose, which was filling up my living room in my small apartment. As a college student, I really appreciated the affordability.
I bought the beige one, and it appears to be the same in color as the photo. There are a few gaps in the back of the couch when assembled, but really these arent that big of a deal. I wanted throw pillows and a throw blanket on the back of the couch anyways, so I cant even see it now when I look at the couch.
The couch was not hard AT ALL to assemble. I am not sure why so many people were having issues with assembly. My boyfriend and I didnt even look at the pamphlet as I had seen how many people said the instructions were poor; we went straight to the video that they provided the URL for in the pamphlet. The video was very simple, and SUPER easy to understand. I think those people who read the pamphlet maybe shouldve opted for the video instead. That being said, I know nothing about the written explanation for putting it together. Id suggest any future buyers go straight to the video.
It is a small couch like they said; however, it can seat 3 people. The singular seat cushions are a lot more comfortable than the long cushion for the chaise/ottoman, and Im really hoping that that cushion will soften up a bit with time and wear. However, I expected this as I had seen it in the reviews, so its not like it was a surprise to me when I sat on it and it wasnt as cushion/y as the other singular seat cushions. If you count that as a complaint, that would be my only complaint.
For me, the couch arrived way earlier than expected which was just fine with me. The vacuum sealed cushions spruced up in about 24 hours (as they said) and I personally did not experience a strong chemical smell. Maybe its just with the particular make of the grey couches; I am really not sure.
The couch is shallow like many others said / this personally doesnt bother me, but for some people, that may be a deal breaker.
Overall, if youre looking for a budget couch I think this is a really good option. Im not sure how well its going to hold up, but I sure hope it does because I like this little couch a lot! My daughter love it!!!
Pleasantly Surprised (would give 4 1/2 stars)
