Arrived on time and in three separate packages. Extra person is needed for assembly due to the weight of the pieces. The assembly itself is very simple. This is a very firm sofa. We plan of purchasing comfortable accent pillows to off set the firmness. One star taken off due to the color. Description and picture show a dark grey, but the color has more navy blue tones. My husband and I agee the color is a rich deep blue color with hints of grey. Despite the color difference it is a beautiful sofa and looks amazing in the living room.
