Unfortunately the pictures are misleading and they don't show the sofa that you are actually getting. Unlike on the pictures, the base of the sofa on which it sits sticks out at the back , leaving like 30 cms between the wall and the back of the sofa. It's not aesthetic at all. It does say in the product description that it doesn't sit flush against the wall, but that's an understatement and the pictures are very misleading, I would say it falls into the false advertising category. Another difference is that the back legs of the sofa stand apart from the front legs and they don't look like the legs on the picture. What we paid for is not what we got but it's so cumbersome to send it back so we will just make our piece with it and give it to a charity shop in a few years and get a new one...
