I have two active kids, one who has severe autism and I've been through so many couches. My kids have been hopping on this this for 6 weeks and so far so good. it holds up great to spills and getting crumbs off is super easy. not many places for the crumbs to hide so it saves me a ton of time on cleaning. it's not the cutest couch, it looks better after a day out of the box. it poofs up a bit. it's very comfortable and I've fallen asleep on it a few times. I like that there are no hard parts it literally all foam. I'm an average size lady, kind of tall 5'8 and I brought in the boxes and set this up by myself. super simple, you just need to be a little strong if you want to set it up alone.
