The hubs and I are looking for something low cost that will hold up for a year or two. We have kids. Recommend? Comfort? Durability?

I personally wouldn't recommend this couch because it was kind of pricey ($500 to me is expensive for a temporary couch) and it was hard as a board. As far as durability, it was fantastic. We have a dog that sheds A LOT and the couch was easy to vacuum, and if we had to, we could take the cushion covers off and wash them, no problem. It also looks great aesthetically. However, the cushions were so hard that no one wanted to sit on it, so we ended up selling it on Craigslist and getting a nicer, comfier, softer couch. If $568ish is low cost for you and comfort isn't a super high priority, I would say go for it. It looked like new when we sold it 2 years after purchasing it. Hope that helps!

I would not recommend this couch. It has some sort of wire in the cushions like a mattress and the part the cushions sit on is like cargo straps that you can feel when you're sitting on it. It's very light and my young son was able to push it around because there is nothing holding the 2 halves of the couch together. We have had the couch for about a month. I don't think it will last a year. I don't know if they have Big Lots or anything like that around you, but I would look there. This couch will be the last piece of furniture without sitting on it in person. I hope this was helpful.

I would not recommend this manufacturer. I have had mine 6 months and I can already feel the wiring/springs in the cushions. It is lower quality than expected and the customer service was a nightmare.

Would not waste my money. Very uncomfortable and company shipped me defective parts and accessories. Please save your money.

My 2.5 YO seems very comfortable. Any ridges are not very prominent and it has a felt-like feel to it.

Hi, I would say fairly durable. We've had two for about a year now and we use them as goals, and have had no problems. However, my kids are young 9 ,7, 7. So they do pretty limited damage. But for us they have been perfect.

My wife has used those for 4 months. If you use the rubber covers they are comfortable

We used this as newborn, I can see a toddler also loving it. My 7yr old also flops on it watching tv though he is a bit big. One thing i reccomend is adding filler. I found the best price was at Walmart.com. For a newborn it is nice to have more support & as with all bean chairs they need refill over time ( especially when older kids jump on it). Very comfy, but parent should never leave child unattended. Enjoy :)

It is pretty sturdy. Fine for sitting on. but if you have a wild child who pulls the cushion off and jumps on the fabric underneath, it will rip right through. I have had this set for a year now, and it's held up decently well. There are a few pokey spots-- little hernias inside the couch that create slightly uncomfortable bumps. But I have kids who jump on it. For the price, I think it's a good deal for what you get and it's liberating to know that if you have active puppies or kittens or children who will eventually grow out of their destructive phase, for now they are ruining furniture that would only last 3 years.

It is probably better after a year. When you first get it, the spring to sit back is tight, but wears in nicely over time. No problems to report. Easy to assemble. Comfortable. Sit in it 4-5 hours every day at work.

I have a daughter who just turned 5 and its comfortable for her. It's probably right in between kids and adult size.

Yes, it has held up for more than a year with our two grandkids using it. Please note that they primarily use it to sit in and watch TV. They are not rough-housing with it.

We've never had any break and my grandchildren are pretty nuts. They've had them for two years. They're really nice. And now I've seen them at Target. They love them. Not sure if this helps but I think they're worth the money.

Very comfortable. My kids love them, I make sure to fluff it up before i sit on it, it great especially if you have a foot rest. It actually looks just the the picture. So to answer the question, it would feel good on a bad back but I'd recommend a foot rest for a taller adult.

In my opinion, not cot is comfortable for a year, but this is better than standard issue cots I have slept on. I would recommend a twin size air mattress to go along with the cot, it'll save your back.

They are very comfortable and sturdy. We had no problem with them. We love it, and we just purchased a second pair.

Yes, it is comfortable for long-term usage. But I would suggest also using a cushion.

I have two sets of these, and I think they're comfortable. There's a decent amount of padding (although I will warn you that the padding will break down if abused - my nephew does his homework at my kitchen table and is always sitting on his feet or kneeling... and now that chair is a bit lumpy). But yeah, I'd probably buy them again, especially at the price for FOUR.

Mine held up pretty well for ~18 months. I used them longer than that, which was a mistake, because they started hurting my neck. Overall I'm satisfied enough to order another set, but I will be sure to replace them at the 18 month mark next time around.

We just bought the chairs so we haven't used them much. They seem sturdy and comfortable. I hope they hold up. Ask me again in a few months.
