NOT easy to remove covers – Actually the most disappointing purchase of 2022. Velcro tabs hardly hold pieces together when attempting building , definitely not enough of them either very few pieces of the couch even have them! Slide around on hard floors so grip pads are clearly pointless too. Will only stay as couch set up if backed onto a wall for support of back rest is lent on will simply roll off.

My son likes to jump on them, but much to hard even for him to sit on comfortably as a couch alternative.

And f you thought easy to remove covers was the truth… you’d be wrong. I’ve watched the little demo they have used to show you how easy it is, but let me assure you the big pieces even with all my strength and body weight I’m unable to bend the larger pieces such as backrest to the point I can remove the cover! The zips are far too short and the foam is way to firm !

Do not buy!

Totally for kids. Not so much for adults – Before anything. I want to strongly emphasize that this product isn’t advertised to be for adults. My review includes adult usage because some adults will probably consider this for use of both adults and kids. Let me start with the not so nice or inconclusive part about the play couch. Quite firm when sitting down on the seating part and slapping it, even for adults. Though when you stand on it (even for kids), it sinks in quite a lot compared to another play couch I have.

Also, for the above reason, When I lean back towards the “back support”. It is so soft and hardly support anything.

In addition to the back support being rather soft. The little friction dots underside of it does not do much to help it stay in place. Placing it in the middle of the couch, when you sit down on it and lean backwards, it will slide off a little before it stays put. Every single time you move( even if its ur kids), it is going to slide a little more. So unless, you ( or ur kids ) are sort of reading a book and not moving an inch or somehow just got frozen by your kid’s latest invention, it will absolutely not stay put for you to lean back comfortably. The only solution to actually use the back support practically is if it is up against a wall. Can’t hope to put between 2 living room and hope it will work well as a slight lean.

Even if the back support is up against the wall, it will only be suitable for a child. The short height of it made it quite awkward for an adult.

There is a crunchy feel to the foam inside. I can’t say I like it. The cover also has a rough dry feel to it, even my kids mentioned their dislike for that feel.

In saying all the above…

My kids absolutely love the play couch, other than the skin feel of it.

They love the arm rest portion where most, or likely all other play couch does not offer. They are just into many diff shapes, the more they can explore their imagination with.

The height of the back support though nay for adults is perfect for the kids.

Kids do not care about the sliding off back support if placed in the middle, they will just laugh and accept whatever shape the play couch is gonna let them melt into.

The seating area aren’t connected 2 by 2 like most other play couch unless you velcro them together 2 by 2. They can be totally separated into 4 pieces that makes it more versatile.

Have this couch for almost a month now, and the kids want to do something with it every single day.

This play couch is really designed for kids use and they would enjoy it so much. If you are to think that it can also work as an adult low couch. Probably not.
