I am pleasantly surprised by the quality of this couch. It's the perfect size for our small 3 season porch and it is so comfortable. The blue color matches the photo -- It's like a classic pure blue jean color. The fabric feels very sturdy. We've been using it for about a week with a toddler and two cats and it still looks brand new, which, to me, is a victory. They only thing I don't love is the pillows...they're pretty hideous. Nothing some covers can't fix though!
