Very nice couch.  Colour is actually a nice grey, even though it is listed as beige.  I would like to also point out that the seat cushions are not removable, as listed in the description.  This was actually one of the selling points for me...I like the style and size.  Quite firm, but comfortable.  Only issues with "damage" are a small tear in the lining underneath and several picks in one of the back cushions, which is a concern if it pulls and causes a run in the fabric. I would ask to have a replacement cushion cover FL and hope it is of the same dye lot.
