it works for what i needed, i guess, but it's not what i was expecting at all. it's not really what i would call 'modular' or 'sectional' at all, unless you count the little pedestal that goes under the 'chaise' section. it's basically a small couch (all one piece; the arms don't come off, etc) with a pedestal that you place in front of one of the seats and a long cushion that rests on it to form a pseudo-chaise. it ended up fitting the room, but just barely - i was anticipating some more flexibility with how it goes together, which i didn't get at all. again, it works, but it's not what i would have chosen if i'd known.

it's comfortable enough, assuming you like a somewhat firm seat, and seems sturdy so far. the dark color does collect dog hair.
