I bought this sofa because it was super highly rated by a lifestyle blog called the strategist. The blog usually recommends very expensive luxury items but they said one of the writers owns this couch in pink and they keep getting asked where they got it.
I got the light green. I thought it would be mint. This couch is a gorgeous disney Cinderella pale blue with a hint of teal. I probably should have gone with the sage. Im happy with it but people should probably know.
If youve ever used a traditional futon before you know that they are a little bit more firm than a couch. This product looks like a trendy little velvet couch but it definitely feels more like a futon. The memory foam is nice and gives it a little but more give than a traditional futon, so its more comfortable but not as cushy as a lazy boy. I did worry a little about it getting uncomfortable over time but I could feel coils and springs inside so hopefully that will help keep the product in good shape. Im a learning on the corner of the sofa type of girl and I feel no dangerous give when learning at all.
The product took about an hour and a half to put together. I am not very good with tools and was a little distracted while doing the job and Im certain that if youre more handy you could do it in an hour or less. The most worrisome thing was that the arms for the couch were inside a secret zipped compartment in the base and I was really worried that they werent there at all. There are also two different little wrenches included and it looks like one is a backup but its actually a different size. Im not sure why that was necessary. This product is light and you could probably move it short distances unassembled if you had a truck and it seems like it would be easy to disassemble.
The fabric does not come off for cleaning and I am a little worried about how it will survive contact with my cat. It wont be passed on to my grandkids but it will probably last me a couple of years. The velvet is almost like a crushed pile and will show little patterns from where it was last touched or stroked until you smooth it down again.
I would definitely buy from this company again if they branch out a little. Midcentury modern is not really my usual style but I like the color and texture and smaller size of this product relative to my smaller apartment.
The product is not going to fool anyone into thinking I have a luxury furniture budget but its cheerful and cute and sturdy enough that it doesnt look like dorm furniture either. If you want to save money vs buying a couch from Urban Outfitters that will be unfashionable in 5 years, this is a great choice.
Cheap and cheerful
