Couch in a Box

I got a new couch! And, it came in a box. And when we opened the box, it was full of jig-saw pieces. That is my new roommate Ashley on the left.
Team Ashley putting together the couch! It came with one set of gloves, there were LOTS of splinters!
Hard at work!!
It's starting to look like something!! Not sure what...
Handy instructions are VERY helpful!
Frame complete! Sweeping up splinters, preparing for the cushions...
Arm rest cushions in place! and all those other pieces that cover up the wood frame...
Mission accomplished!! And it's really comfortable too! :)

Team Ashley did an amazing job with the construction of that couch - very comfy! Might have to get myself one of those - is Team Ash up to building another?! :)

umm... Team Ash might be up for overseeing the project. Our skills have moved us up to management. :)

Holy Cow! Where did you get a couch that comes in pieces like that? I honestly have NEVER seen such a thing! Good job, Ashley. It looked like a huge mistake to start with and a comfy couch in the end! Yeah for you!

I've been looking all over for these couches... can you tell me where you purchased it?

Ashley,where did you get the couch. I saw one for the first time today. We put it together but would like some (optional) pieces that were missing. Since it was purchased second hand we don't know where to find them. Thanks! You go girl!

Here is the website that we used... and it looks like they updated it since then, too! The couches there are great! I totally recommend them. I hope you find what you're looking for, good luck!
