Disappointed with the quality

The sofa arrived with a couple of noticeable scratches on the wooden legs, which was quite frustrating given the price. It also felt a bit firmer than expected and not very comfortable to sit on for long periods. Packaging was decent, but I had hoped for better quality control overall.

Modern and clean look which fits well in my room. Not super sturdy but good enough.

Nice experience overall

The bed frame feels sturdy and well built. Assembly took a bit longer than expected but wasn’t too difficult.
