a new sofa. The shop assistant tells you it's a 'Manager's Special'. Yes, it
comes with a footstool. Yes, it's A.
_______________. Yes, it can easily be B.______________ to fit through your
front door. But as soon as it arrives, things start to go wrong… The footstool
is invisible. The sofa's falling apart C. _______________________. And you'll
need to take the window out, just to get it in! Well, here's some good news.

flat M. ________________ or preassembled?
