I am thrilled with the "putty" color I chose. I was afraid it wasn't going to match, but it is absolutely perfect. It went together easily. For those reviewers saying they had a tough time zipping the armrests onto the couch, I recommend removing the armrests' stuffing, zip the inside zipper first, put the stuffing back in, and then zip the outside zipper. You might need someone to hold the armrests down for the second zipper, but otherwise this will make the job much easier. The faux leather looks great. The couch is a bit firm, but I like it. My recliners worked easily and folded back up easily. Very comfortable when seated or reclined. You can tell that the cushion is one big piece of foam, but for the price it is just fine. I can't wait to find some red pillows to go on it!
