I bought this because, while I really wanted a sectional in a fun color, I wasn't in the mood to be spending obscene amounts of money on one, in large part due to the fact that I don't really ever use couches, but also just because I have limited funds- For that reason, this couch works great for me, but I'm gonna try to be fair about it regardless.
First off, it arrived in several boxes, with each section coming in its own packaging, as well as the corner arms coming in their own packages. I was able to take the packages in from the sidewalk by myself, and assemble the whole thing in pretty short amount of time- the instructions are simple, it came with plenty of extra parts, and was by far the most pleasant thing to build of all the furniture I've gotten.
Every single section opens up with plenty of space in each. If you're choosing this sofa for being compact, this is probably great news since small spaces require some creative storage solutions. The corner piece may be a tad annoying to open (I have to open the ottoman to get the corner piece open) but it does still work.
Some other reviews mention the back and sides are clearly meant to go against a wall, and I can see that... They're quite thin, and while each piece with a back comes with a pillow to cushion it, I'm not especially confident they'd do amazing if you stuck it in the middle of the room and used it for hours a day, that it would continue to hold up, but it feels comfortable enough right now.
I'm a bit short, but I really don't enjoy lounging on most of the couch- I can sit on it perfectly comfortably, but if I want to lean back and relax, it feels a bit too shallow- For this reason I usually just lounge on the section with the ottoman, however I only have one of those- I imagine if I ever wanted to watch a movie with someone else, though, I would really regret getting the version with only one ottoman. I won't dock points for this though, because it was my own choice to get the version with only one ottoman instead of two. You can also buy just the ottoman separately if you wish.
As for if you should get this sofa... I think if I had the chance to go back in time and choose a sofa again, I would still choose this one- As scathing as this review may seem, it does its job for me beautifully, looks nice (it will probably look much better once I have throw pillows on it), and has tons of storage on top of being cheap- Its ratio of comfort to style is perfect for me, and while not everyone will have the same priorities as I do, I think if you're on a budget, you should absolutely consider this one.
Amazing quality for the cost
