This sofa is awesome. I was skeptical ordering such an expensive furniture item online, but we love this. It has a good amount of front-to-back seating space. My 61 partner can comfortably lay across the sofa to relax. The sofa is higher than most sofas, so its great for anyone who gets sucked in to many couches--great for older adults. The back of the couch is vinyl but you cant tell because it matches the leather on the seating areas so well. We got the brown color. Have had it for 2 months.
