I am so happy with this purchase!! The sofa came in less than a week. For the price I paid for it I am extremely happy with the quality & size. I was scouring the internet looking for a decently priced, modern looking sofa. Most of them were over $1000 or more, too small, bad reviews.... Then i stumbled on this one. It was a breeze to put together, has an awesome deep seat and although the cushions are slightly thinner than what I’d prefer they are still comfortable. The metal is not black it is a dark dark grey. The seTs are as pictured. The “wood” on the arm rests is plastic BUT I prefer that because it’s lower maintenance but still looks great. Full disclosure- I haven’t had this long so I am unsure how it will hold up in rain, it’s under a covered porch, so I’m hoping no rust.  But if you’re on the fence I’d tell you just buy it!! (Cushions look weird in the pic but they need to settle & be sat on- came out of the box with some marks from being pressed against the metal)
