*edit* afterwards originally giving a 5 star review, I have to change it. After barely a year, the “leather” is peeling at the seams. The finish has come off, showing the fabricmesh that has been coated. Unfortunately, the seating areas appear to be fake leather. For the price, I’d expect more.Great couch! It looks fantastic in our space, and is very sturdy. I was hesitant to make such a big purchase without trying it first, but it worked out very well. Back cushions are plush, but the seat is definitely on the firmer side.
