Amazing less than 30 minutes
This took me about 15-30 minutes to put together and get in the room. I am 4'10 and weight about 90lbs. I got this down a set of stairs alone. I got it out of the box and put the thing together alone. So if I can do it anyone can! It's really nice, comfy, and perfect for lounging on!

why ?why lie? it is written that the sofa is 182 cm long, I specifically took it so that it was with a margin. I have a height of 175. and this sofa is just my height in length. so he is not 182 cm but 175 cm. this means with a pillow my legs will stick out.

    decent for the price
    product came and the most difficult part of setting it up was getting it out of the box. after that it was easy to get the legs on a flip over. others have said its smaller than they expected but this fits perfectly in the space i needed it for and it wjll serve its purpose when we have a guest here soon. ive taken a few naps on it now and its comfy to sleep on even in the couch position. Granted i am pnly 5'1 so this works perfectly for me, but even my 6ft husband laid on it while it was reclined into the "bed" and said as far as futons go its good.

    okay
    sturdy and easy to assemble; looks exactly like the pictures in the listing. the fabric and “memory foam” padding feel very very cheap, as if it was made with the same material you'd find on a claw-machine teddy bear

    Pleasant surprise!
    Purchased this futon for my office space. It was prefect. I planned initially for a couch but didn’t want the couch prices. Ordered this on a Friday afternoon, it came on Sunday evening- fast shipping! My husband, daughter and her friend have napped on it and all say it was comfy. So far, I’d say that I would recommend.

    Perfect futon for kids or low use areas
    I guess i was one of the lucky ones because my package arrived without any damage. My 11yo son loves it. We replaced his old futon with this one and it is perfect for his space. Don't expect the highest quality but for the price, its a tremendous value.

    A lot better than I expected!
    I brought this cheap couch from Walmart for my small 2 bedroom apartment, and I have to say, I thought it was going to be a piece of junk, but to my surprise it's a solid piece of furniture! The leather is most likely fake, but it smells like actual leather and feels good too. The assembly process should have been a piece of cake but it took longer than an hour due to the fact that some of the screws for the legs wouldn't properly fit in the holes, and it was very frustrating having to have the 2 sides of the couch close together to bolt them together… Other than that I'd say all that frustration was well worth it, and the price, you really can't beat it! I'd say it's good for a college student that needs a place to stay at their parents house for when they come over for vacation, or that one guest you wouldn't want in your bed, at least this couch does turn into a full bed which is pretty sweet!

    Decent
    It was easy to assemble and isn't terrible looking for the price. Hardest part about assembly was getting the heavy box inside. I bought it for a tiny apartment and I'm pretty happy with it. It's not very comfortable, but some throws should help. I didn't expect it to be super comfy given the price point but it's still soft enough to serve as a basic couch.

    Overall good
    Honestly for the price point the quality is great! It is exactly as expected as long as you keep in mind that its at this price point and brand new. If you're looking for something more comfortable or a bed I would invest much more money. But if you have a tight budget like myself and are looking for a living room/guest bed futon this is your pick.

    So many damages when I open red the package
    Back side of couch has some damages and also wood has damages too. I really don't know why they don't realize when they packed. I won't buy any couch at Walmart anymore. If you want to get poor quality couch, buy this one. If you wanna use it longer or don't wanna return it, don't buy this. It's not worth it

    Great futon
    Great little futon! We set this up in our game room for the kids. Good size and super easy to set up. It folds up to a full size. The only draw back, it's not as soft as I thought it would be, but it's nothing some throw blankets and pillows can't fix.

    Nice futon!
    It was easy to assemble and it arrived early. It was just hard to take out of the box by myself in a small room but I managed. It's comfortable to lay on besides being able to feel the middle part that separates it. That part would be uncomfortable sometimes but overall, it's a good futon.

    Great but needs better packaging.
    So far I really like the couch. I even bought another one. However, Walmart really needs to ship it better. My box was really beat up when it arrived. The couch isn't protected by any Styrofoam, etc, so my first couch was damaged. There was a big gash in the lining. I initiated a return but don't want to go through the effort. The second couch was delivered ok but again no Styrofoam to protect the contents.

    Not a bad deal, as long as you know its limits
    So far, we have had it a week. First day after unpacking, the smell of vinegar was a bit off-putting, but it finally subsided. Must be the memory foam. Not as soft as I would have hoped, but it will serve the purpose we intended which is some extra seating and somewhere to nap Was easy enough to assemble, but I seriously doubt it will handle larger built people for very long. Says it will hold 600 pounds. Maybe if they don't move much. The racheting mechanisms for the back are a neat touch, but again I wouldn't trust for larger than average build persons. Shipping was fast and box was in good shape. Wasn't expecting it to be in two pieces when I opened the box. But instructions are pretty clear. All the hardware and legs are in a zipper pocket on the bottom of the couch so everything was there. Nice touch if you have to disassemble if you are moving. I didn't have any problems with the holes not lining up like I have read some other reviews when installing the legs. I'm 6' and average build and is comfortable for just lounging, but I wouldn't use it as an everyday bed. As for a couch, not too bad for the price.

    Not to pleased
    The futon construction, the feel of the material are very good. The ‘look' of the final product is good. However, there is a lack of “ truth in advertising“ with the futon. On every scrap of paper and as stamped by fabricator/maker of the futon's shipping box, the dimensions do not add up. When the futon was first being constructed, it may have started with the dimensions, stamped on the shipping box and on the instruction booklet. But what I received was woefully short. 72 inches wide became 68 3/4 inches wide-ish. The same with the depth and height dimension given. All are off by about 3 inches or more. I am very disappointed. The final product dimensions do not match what is provided to us on the Walmart website, by the fabricator, no one. This will be the first and the last time I purchase a furniture item from Walmart.

    Great futon!!!
    I think this is a decent futon, just a little side note, when you're putting it together make sure the side mini pillow things are fully down and level with each other or else putting it together will not work. It's pretty soft and easy to use. It's perfect size to fit pretty much anywhere, if I wanted, I could fit it in my closet, and I have a pretty small closet.

    Couch smelled awful (even in the box) and when I tried to set it up I looked inside because of the smell and found mold among other things!! Now I have to waste my time dealing with this smell until I can return it. Do not recommend !!

    Looks great and is comfy, but the moment I opened the box I noticed that the couch had a rip already. I needed it right away so I just used it, but it was very disappointing to get something brand new with a hole.

    Only gave it 3 stars mat is very thin
    I love the stylish look it has with the armrest, and the many levels that it can recline. It just the right size I wanted something that would not take too much room. It's perfect for an extra added area for guest to sleep. It is a little on the short side I'm 5”4 and it's fine for me but it is very thin so not to comfortable for a good night rest for an adult or older and a heavy child. My 10 yr old slept on it but only lasted till 4am and come back upstairs to his bedroom. I am looking into purchasing a mat to place on top that I can easily store away. It does the job and for to price I am pleased with it. This would probably help guest not overstay their welcome…who knows.

    Missing entire frame
    Other shoppers should prepare to be disappointed. I read many reviews on this futon and ignored them. There were so many complaints of missing parts. Our futon was missing the entire frame. All we got were the cushions. How frustrating as this was going to be a place for two of our guest to sleep when they came in from out of town for a Wedding.
