Novogratz Brittany Sofá Cama, Cuero Sintético Color Camello

I got this couch last month, and to preface my review, I will say that I needed this piece for furnishing my first apartment and I am confined to a VERY tight budget. So I was looking for the cheapest couch possible that still looked nice. Overall I am satisfied with my first ever couch, but excited for the day when I can afford a nice, high quality, real leather, and comfortable couch, and give this one to someone in need. So if you can afford to get a better couch than this one, I would recommend to just bite the bullet and invest in a better couch. You will regret your purchase if you had more money to spend on a couch and got this one instead. I simply couldn’t afford a nicer couch.
First, I’ll start off with the cons: If you are looking for a comfortable couch and that is your #1 priority in buying a couch, this is not the couch for you. Just pay more for comfort. Seriously. It will be worth it for you. If you are looking for a quality couch that will last a long time, this is not the couch for you. For example, the arms are held in place by 3 bolts at the bottom, and so when people lean their bodyweight on the arm (most people I know sit this way), you can tell its not meant to support that type of lounging because it moves and creaks a little lol. My sister slept over on the couch and she said that she would have been more comfortable if I had a sleeping pad, so I’ll have to invest in one of those for my guests. Keep in mind, she’s a side sleeper and this is a firm couch. Might be better if you sleep on your back, but still, the couch is not as padded as I thought it would be. I was expecting the padding to be firm because that’s what I saw from reviews, but it doesn’t seem as substantial as I’d hoped. I thought the foam was going to be more dense? Idk how else to describe it, but that is something that surprised me a little was how «hollow» the seats feel. Like eventually with more wear I’ll just fall through. Even with how cheap it is, I wasn’t expecting the seats to feel like that. Oh well.
To end my review on a positive note…
Pros: This couch was easy to assemble, I am pregnant and was able to do it all by myself easily within an hour or 2. The instructions were straightforward and everything was labeled accurately. The couch looks exactly like the photos, it is very aesthetic and chic. The price is great, you really can’t complain much with this pricepoint. Biggest reason why I bought it was the look of it and the price point, as well as the fact that is doubles as a sleeper for guests. It is comfortable enough (if you’re not going to be lounging for hours), and is on the firm side, which I like firm. This couch suits my needs.
Overall, I was pinching pennies when buying this, and I am already looking forward to when I can afford a nicer, more cozy couch. However, it suits my needs for the time being and will get me by. Plus it’s just so darn good looking in my living room. I am satisfied with the purchase. 🙂
