So thrilled with this purchase.  It's a gorgeous sofa.  For the price paid, the quality is great!  A lot of reviews mention the firmness of the sofa-- it is on the firm side, but not uncomfortably so.  It's definitely not a sofa to sink into, but for the sleek, "glam" look it achieves, it shouldn't be a "sinking" sofa.  It is in my office-- which by the way, it's perfect for the office.  It would be a great piece for a conversational room setting, where you would entertain guests, rather than in front of the family tv.
