I wanted a sleekmodern sectional  my kids wanted something big  comfy. We met in the middle on this! Still sleek enough to work in our small living room without looking too bulky and plush enough for my kids to loungesleep on. I removed some of the side pillows to get more seat space (comfortably seats 4). Ribbed fabric is a nice , textured plush  perfect to hide the dog  cat hair too which was key. Definite win for the price.
