Nearly false advertising. The product page showed no images of the back of the couch and it's clear why. It's very ugly with exposed black fabric, the exact same material that's found on the underside of the couch. The cushions are a little stiff but that's fine. The real issue is that in the very middle of the couch, it's rock hard. There is no cushioning between the fabric and the wood joining the two halves of the couch. If you sit down too fast you will hurt yourself. Seriously.
