Not Worth The Unless You Can Add Lumber to Strengthen It
I liked being able to have a regular sized couch in my tiny home and this one looks nice. But the bolts they use to hold it together loosened in 3 days. I purchased 2 pieces of 1 x 4 X 8 Pine boards and cut them to fit the back rests and the underneath section of the couch to strengthen it and keep the left and right sides from coming apart. I also added some beefy construction screws (2 1/2) to the center boards (top and bottom) to hold the left/right sections together better and so they wont loosen with use. They dont make things like they used to, and its true for couches that come in a box or out of a store. My biggest gripe is the seat cushions arent big enough anymore, dont have the right amount of depth. Im not talking about the cushion thickness, that is fine, just the amount of room from the front where the back of your knees rest to the back cushion you put your back against. They need to add the 3 inches they took away to save money. Im 5 tall and can sit all the way back and still touch the floor. Id gladly pay for that other 3 inches to be engineered back in. Im not including a picture of the couch assembled because it does look exactly like the photo in the ad. Im single and figure this will last me 5/7 years if I treat it nice. My last couch is 19 years old and now a family member is using it because it wouldnt fit in the tiny house door. But thats the difference between how things used to be built and how they are now. Still, overall I give this a decent rating for the convenience, ease of assembly and style.
