I had to place an order for our Xmas couch no earlier than 12/15, because that was payday ... We figured the couch wouldn't make it by Christmas day, and that that was fine, but it did arrive the morning of Christmas Eve, in the two big boxes -- very prompt. Thank you! The couch went together like an enormous 3-d puzzle with a fair amount of the splinters you warned us about. But gloves were thoughtfully provided, the directions and labeling were perfectly clear, the pieces pegged and screwed together smoothly, and once I got the process going, I was amazed how sturdy the frame turned out to be. The couch is comfortable, sturdy, good-looking -- and pet proof. I love that I can hide the kid's college textbooks in the bottom. I love that I was able to closely approximate what I had in my head design-wise, and that if my kitties ever lose their awe, that I'll be able to replace any piece or portion that succumbs to feline abuse (somehow, it doesn't look like this will be a problem). Thank you so much for the amount of thought and problem-solving involved -- we are so pleased!

I've had my sofa nearly a year. It arrived quickly, and my 14-year-old son was able to put it together by himself in a few hours. I helped with putting the covers on the cushions, which as a little difficult, but not too bad. The fabric is beautiful. I have not yet washed it in the washer, but have cleaned a few spots off of it with a damp rag- very easy to do. It is extremely comfortable, and the cushions have not lost their shape at all. I got the firmer cushions for the back rather than the pillowy ones thinking they would hold up better, but I don't like the look as well, and when I order the next sofa (for another room), will probably get the other type. Also, the type I got hooks over the back of the sofa, and the sofa would get pushed against the wall, pushing the back cushions out of place. So I placed a long 4x4 piece of wood behind the sofa on the floor to prevent this. The storage compartments are not quite as big as I expected, but are nice and can hold 1-2 blankets each, depending on the size of the blankets. One problem with the storage compartments- the front panels don't go all the way down, leaving an opening so that smaller objects can fall out. I don't understand why they are made this way, since it could have easily been made so that the panel goes all the way down.
This sofa is very sturdy, and has survived almost a year in a house full of teenagers and a toddler with no damage- very impressive in my book. This price can't be beat for the quality. Overall, I am very pleased and highly recommend this furniture.
