Honestly, I got this product when it was $187. It came folded up (very compact) and it took me about 15 minutes or so to put it together. So simple! Plus, it was delivered really quickly. I ordered it on 10/20 and it arrived 10/25. It's really easy to convert into a bed. I originally ordered it so visitors would have a place to sleep; I took a nap on it the other day, and it was really comfortable. A very good deal for under $200. All in all, I'm very happy with my purchase.

It is much better looking than the photo, which appeared to me to be microfiber. It's actually a great-looking and easy to maintain matte vinyl. It looks it should cost a lot more than $188. It was super quick and easy to put together and looks and feels quite sturdy and durable. It is probably not terrribly comfortable as a bed but it is fine as a sofa which is all I intend to use for. It also arrived an entire week ahead of the estimated delivery time and in excellent condition. I am extremely happy with this purchase.

MAJOR FAIL! On assembly, the seatbacks stopped staying up after about 5 minutes! It works randomly, failing to lock upright at times, staying in the bed position. I already gave this one star and wrote the following paragraphs before the major mechanical failure:
The main detraction is that the item is unfinished on the back. If one puts it anywhere except against a wall, it shows the non-matching, cheap fabric on the back. This thin lining is badly stapled and glued, with threads hanging and a few noticible gaps where the inside materials show through the uneven edges. The lining fabric should only be for the underside, facing the floor.
Two more yards of the matching vinyl and some decent workmanship would have made an attrctive, low priced, finished couch-bed. The design and concept are not terrible and a better execution of this would make a satisfying product. At or near this price, with little refinement, this could easily be 4 or 5 stars.
