My family and I adore this couch.  We have it in our rec room by a pool table and it looks gorgeous!  This dark color is so pretty and makes the room look settled.  The material is so smooth that our cats don't want to move.  It's easy to make it into a day bed which my kids like it better that way.  I'm 5'3" and my feet are right at the edge of the bed, so taller people will have their feet sticking out unless they lay down diagonally.  There was some smell in the beginning from the fabric just like some people posted, but it went away completely after about a month.
