Ordered evening Dec 26th and rec'd morning Dec 30th.  Got 2 charcoal color for basement living area, wanted something functional and flexible for people sleeping over from time to time.  Charcoal color is actually a bit darker than what you see online.  Actual futon will seat 3 people however, will really sleep one person.  Material of seating area is a little bit on firm side, looks and feels nice.  Not sure about long term wear - everyday use maybe 4-5 years?  Will not recommend as everyday sleep area but for short term overnight or a weekend on occasion, no problem.  Overall satisfied with delivery and quality for our expected use.
