It’s really pretty and soft! The only reasons it’s getting 35 stars — it is slightly uneven, it rocks side to side (which can probably be solved by putting a rug underneath). And when I received it, it was like someone returned it who had a cat because of all the hair on the velvet. I had to take a lint roller to it to remove all the hair. It was also extremely difficult getting the plastic off of the metal base. It did not peel away easily.
