First of all I love the design....this sofa is ROCK hard.  Not firm, but hard.  I purchased 2 of them and one is definitely defective.  There is a center seam down the middle of the seat.  It shows and is very rough to the touch.  Also, the corduroy was sewn on the front poorly and looks very wavy.  Overall a poor purchase.  Not $600 quality.  More like $299.
