The couch is perfect for what I was looking for. I needed something lower because its going against a wall with windows and I didn't want to block the natural light. I read a lot of reviews before purchasing this couch and the metal framing at the bottom is not as "cheap" as people make it out to be. It goes nicely with my decor and you can add little splashes of chrome on your coffee table or end tables to tie it in. The sectional does move a little because the Velcro attachments they give you aren't the best but I bought rubber furniture pads and they keep them from moving. The couch is firm but comfy.
