Hello, I have a large sofa from This End Up furniture that I bought
several years ago. I want to get rid of it but can not lift it as it
weighs several hundred pounds. Does anyone know if these come apart? I
dont remember if, when initially delivered- it came in parts... thanks

A chain saw will dismantle it quickly and efficiently.

Several hundred pounds? Take the fold-a-bed out first.

no bed in this unit

We had several TEU pieces and all came knocked down.
Assembly was with silicon bronze capscrews with a hex head.
The heads are about 1/2" in dia. If you see these on your
piece it's probable that's how it was assembled too.

My this end up stuff was disassembled too. BTW it served us well for 18
years, the last 2 of which the dining table has made a fine workbench top
and the hutches great cabinets for tools too. :-)

[Sigh] Just read what I wrote earlier.
The heads are round. The sockets in them were hex for
an allen wrench.

Hello all, thanks for the reply. I suppose it did come dissassembled.
makes sense. Anyway, I am looking at the long sofa and I see holes
where nails went.. There are also staple style nail holes there. I dont
see any area where there are screws.. Can someone explain where these
are located?
I want to disasemble so as to make it lighter to carry upstairs.

Appreciate your help. I am pretty handy just please be specific with
instructions. thanks again

Try the manufacturer.

Huh . . I thought they were out of business, but it looks like they just
closed their retail stores.

We had good service from them for our bed, and I kinda like their stuff.
So I'm weird.

I have an older (1980) TEU couch. It does not come apart for transport.
This end up did go out of business several years ago. A new group
bought the name and designs. They seem to be making a comeback selling
mostly to colleges and office furniture markets.
