This comes in a single box. Youll need another person to help move it and even then it can be awkward because of the shape and size. The shipping configuration is pretty interesting though. You unfold the whole thing and then unzip the cover on the bottom and inside youll find the hardware and armrests. I put the thing together myself and I was just putting around while talking to a buddy on speakerphone and I got it done in well under an hour.
The back folds down in two sections and a zipper on the back reveals a leg on each section that folds out. Since everything is part of the whole seat you dont need to worry about the cushion moving around. I have another futon that the cushion just sits on a metal frame and it slides around sometimes. When folded down with the legs out everything is pretty sturdy and seems big enough to get a good nights rest. I wouldnt want to be sleeping on it all the time but for the occasional night, it seems like it will be good.
The cushions are firm and dont have much give when sitting on it. It is still comfortable for sitting on a few hours at a time. I do wish the armrests were thicker so you had more of a surface to actually rest your arm on.
Overall this seems like a good futon but time will tell. Ill come back and update if I have any problems.
Pretty nice...
