I bought the yellow futon about a year ago and after assembling it, it was very stiff. Lying to myself, I thought it just needed to be broken in, whatever that means. No, one year later I am shopping for a different couch because this one is just not meant for neither comfort nor everyday use. Theres not much lounging to be done on this. I am a college student so it made sense for me to just get a cheap couch for the time being, not expecting to be sitting on a cloud either. But I do my homework on this couch and its so hard it makes my butt start going numb while, after hours of work and a progressively slouching posture, there is no cushioning to relax against. My posture has probably gotten so much worse due to this. I have to put a pillow under my lower back to fill the stiff gap between the couch and me so I don't end up the hunchback of notre dome.
I hate leaving negative reviews so I will say this, it looks nice, everyone who has seen it has said they love it but everyone who has sat on it has been uncomfortable.
Don't be like me and convince yourself that it'll be fine because I swear you'll end up looking for a new one sooner than you should.
