I love this loveseat! It is very sturdy, and replaces a flimsy fast-furniture settee that could not bear the weight of my guests. I am confident that this one will not fail! It is comfortable, fashionable, cleanable, and much much more.Easy set up, it took me about an hour. There are 15 screws total, and it comes with the only tool needed, an Allen wrench. I worked from the inside out, and all the pre-drilled holes lined up for me, though I did need my flashlight to help me see them a couple of times.Very happy with this purchase!!!!
