"This is the first item I have been disappointed in that I have bought from JCP. The sofa is of such poor quality that it's not even worth the price of the shipping, let alone the sale price of the sofa! I bought the standard sofa and the chair and a half. Both pieces are lumpy and in the three days we have had the pieces, the cushions have sunk in which makes the pieces look like they have been used for years, rather than days!!
I bought theses piese online because I live in a small rural area with access to only 2 furniture stores within a 80 mile area, which means they can charge higher prices for what little merchandise they carry. I wish now that I had taken my chances with them.
I also ordered the Addison dining room group, which I am awaiting delivery on. Now, I'm worried that it will be of as poor quality as these pieces.
My advice...DO NOT BUY the Monroe product line."
Pros Syle of sofa, clean lines
Cons Poor quality

"This is the most uncomfortable sofa ever manufactured! I have never felt inclinied to write a review of anything I have purchased but if I can prevent one person from making this HUGE mistake, it will be worth the time and effort. I have the sleeper version of this sofa. The cushions were hard as slabs when the sofa arrived and compressed into flat pancakes of foam within 2 months. I am looking to have the cushions re-stuffed today because I can't stand it anymore. This will cost any savings I thought I was getting with this purchase! I was looking for something inexpensive and durable (kids and pets) but should have trusted my gut and sent this back the minute it arrived and I saw the quality. Please don't waste your money. Buy a sofa that you can actually sit on before purchasing!"
Pros inexpensive
Cons everything else!

"I found the cushions to be a bit stiff. The seating did pill a bit. We are not at home during the day and I have the furniture covered due to my dogs. This has prevented any further pilling. I am still happy with the furniture as I know how to deal with its shortcomings. We have not had issues with the cushions compressing. We're not at home during the day and we're not big people."
Pros The color was absolutely perfect
Cons The seats will pill

"I had to completely reupholster mine. I was really happy with the look of the sofa once it came to me, but the fabric pilled in a week and a half just from regular sitting. In what you pay for shipping, tax, etc, I don't feel at all it was worth it.
As the review before me, the cushions smushed easily and quickly as well for us, and the bed is less than acceptable.
Poor choice in furniture. Unfortunately, I bought the chair and ottoman to go with it. All falling apart 3 months after purchase."

"This couch seems like a great value but you get what you pay for. We've had it for just over a year and it is the most uncomfortable couch I've ever sat in. The cushions have completely flattened and did so within the first few months. It's extremely shallow so you're knees are sticking out when you lie down and the pull-out bed is uncomfortable and stiff. My mother-in-law also purchased this couch and HATES it. She's only had it for 6 months and her cushions are also flat. DO NOT BUY. You will regret it."
Pros looks nice initially
Cons EVERYTHING

"This sofa arrived at my home in perfect condition. The fabric is nice and it seems sturdy. It was packaged well and the pillows were in excellent condition. It was firmer than I expected. Overall, this is a good couch and seems to be toddler friendly."
