This is in fact very beautiful but really stiff. My kids an husband dont mind it. My other complaint is that the mechanism that allows you to fold it back is not great and I fear that over time it will break. Currently it is finicky and on occasion wont work. Also pretty simple to put together. I did it alone.
Overall I would say that if the futon aspect is something you wont use very much I would buy it. You cant beat the price for how pretty this sofa is. Everyone remarks on it. Definitely appears more expensive than it is. Aside from being very attractive, I also like the fact that it doesnt have that support piece sticking out from behind that makes futon like sofas so ugly.
