This sofa is the center piece of furniture in our home.  We chose to go with the beige color with accents of blue and gold.  This couch is comfortable to sit on but I believe pillows are a must because the back rest is stiff.  
The assembly is very easy however not so much with one person.  The delivery was fast compared to other large pieces bought on Wayfair.  
Very pleased with this purchase, and I will add, that it is fairly easy to clean off small stains with a damp cloth.
