Works for my needs at the price I paid and I put it together without a problem. It is very hard sitting but I like that because it is easier for me to get out of the couch. I lay on it sometimes to watch TV and it supports my bad back very well.
What a great couch! About 2hrs assembly and very comfortable. I read all the reviews and my only concern was a possible weakness in the gap between the middle legs. For support i placed a 12 by 4.5by 4 block of wood in the space. Very confident about the couch now. All my friends are impressed. I recommend the item.
I'll preface this by saying the wrong color sofa was sent to me. I don't know how someone mistakes the one-inch lettering on the side of the box that says RYE BROWN for MARZIPAN, but I appreciate not really doing too much about the mistake except forcing me to wait almost a week to get it swapped out or offering a scant refund that doesn't even cover the cost of the couch slip I just ordered to turn this bad boy back to the color I intended it to be. Here's to you, prime membership.
Bottom line is, if you're looking for a $300 sofa, this is a great $300 sofa. Especially if your in laws tend to show up unannounced or your single friends like to drink their dating woes away at your place, this couch is PERFECT at encouraging them to not stay as long.
It is quite firm-- so firm, in fact, you need to tell your kids to jump on it to loosen it up a bit (or if you don't have kids, ask the neighbor's). This isn't a couch you can kerplunk into and feel like you're morphing into a pillow of awesomeness; this is a couch you hog and lay across at an angle, which is significantly more comfortable than sitting upright. It likely just needs a lot of breaking in (or different cushions, which wouldn't be a bad idea and cheaper fix). But this is indeed a matter of personal preference-- my sleep number bed would be in the negative digits if it came with the option, I'm a fan of all things soft and squishy.
It is, however, comfortable enough and more aesthically pleasing than my ex. It is also VERY easy to put together-- I'm on my third beer and had no issue putting it together by myself. Sans awkwardly moving such a large box into the house and wondering if I should leave the UPS guy a tip, there's nothing complicated about this piece of furniture.
Docked a star because again, it's pretty firm --and somebody doesn't know how to read the side of a box-- by as far as quality, not bad at all. So go give your in-laws something else to judge you over and purchase this couch if you're looking for something inexpensive but durable and nice looking.
I'm very pleased with the look of this sofa. Nice fabric and firm cushions. My daughter and her friend put it together for me in less than an hour. Not sure I could have done it alone because of arthritic hands. The seat cushions are not really deep but it's comfortable. There is a chemical smell but I expect that will go away after a few days. I'll revisit this review if my opinion changes.
I am six foot and it is perfect. Easy to put together. I had HEAVY visitors this past weekend and it stood up well to 400 pounds. Great value for money
This crazy comfy couch is extremely nice for the money! I was so nervous to buy it online especially since I had to assemble it but honestly I had it done in about 20 mins and it's perfect for my space!
I have the middle sized (73 inch) sofa in marzipan. I like it. It came with 2 throw pillows which I hadn't expected. I'm 5'2 and petite and this couch fits me just fine. It's only day 2 for me, and some of the reviews are correct, it's a bit overstuffed and kinda forces you to roll off the edge, but it will sink down over the course of the years I plan to keep this. While it can be put together with just one person, I do recommend that you do it with someone else. If only so they can tell you, you are attempting to put the back of the couch in wrong. The shipping was the most difficult part of this. My local UPS required me to be home and sign for it, then he needed help carrying it up the steps to my apartment. Even after my life progresses this will be the perfect couch to put in the basement and let the kids play on. I'm glad I got it.

Overall I like this couch
Works for my needs at the price I paid and I put it together without a problem. It is very hard sitting but I like that because it is easier for me to get out of the couch. I lay on it sometimes to watch TV and it supports my bad back very well.
then I thought it would be but it was good for the price
A bit smaller then I thought it would be but it was good for the price. not something to sleep on though lol.
Couch in a box

So easy a caveman...

Nice for my small living room.
