I like it!!  One never knows when ordering on line and not being able to see the color in person or the way it feels when you sit on the furniture.  Pleasantly surprised!!  We love the firmness of the couch.  The 3 recliners are wonderful, and learned about the 3 recliners from others who posted reviews as the picture on the Mayfair site doesn't confirm the 3 recliners.  And yes the controls for the left side of the 2 chair recliner is to the right of the seat, tucked in the cushion, just below the armrest.  My husband is liking the recliner too as he is snoring away in his recliner ;-) as I write this review..LOL
