I was worried about the olive green as the website photo colors were inconsistent, but it turned out to be the perfect choice.  The color has a lot of depth and shading.  The velvet is beautiful and so far so good after almost 2 months.  Easy to clean  after spills.  I had read somewhere that cats don't scratch velvet and miracle of miracle, although they like napping on this sofa they have shown no interest in doing their usual number.    The sofa looks great in an open floor plan - the back is as attractive as the front, a relief since that is what we see from the dining room.   This roomy couch fits 3 long legged people with room to spare.  It is not a sofa you sink into - you will need a pillow to prop your back.  Quite firm - but that is how I like it.  However, a few guests have judged it uncomfortable.  It is very supportive when you stretch out to nap with legs up - doze off immediately.   Easy to put together.  Very handsome sofa - I'm glad I got it.
