Much more comfortable and nicer than our last futon/sofa
Now that the futon is in place, we are using it and enjoying the way it looks. Its quite comfortable to sit on if youve got some pillows to put on it.
The only downside was that it was quite work-intensive to put together. Its heavy (which helps the end-product to be sturdy, I know!), so simply moving the box into position, getting it all ready to assemble, took some effort. Not for frail people, I guess you could say. And there are many screws and nuts that have to be maneuvered into position, sometimes at awkward angles, to get it all together. Seems likeee it！！！ sometimes required 3 hands to put one bolt/nut/washer in place through two structural elements. Much easier if you have a small team of experienced furniture assemblers! We did... there were three of us there, and we did a little tag-teaming to get it done. But its a good, solid piece of furniture to sit on. The fabric is attractive and seems quite sturdy and comfortable. Futon (fold-out) function works easily. Seems likeee a good piece for the price.
