I think the 4 star rating works nicely. This is an affordable piece and was relatively easy to put together and I love the dark blue color, it is exactly as the picture shows. My only reason for not giving it 5 stars is the material was not sewn on properly in one area by the arm rest so it looks a tad on the cheap side because of that, but luckily that is hidden for us. Overall, a good piece for the money;.
