The couch is really pretty and actually very comfortable. However, I was under the impression that "leather match" meant that the contact surface (fronts of cushions, armrests, etc.) were actual leather and lower contact surfaces were faux leather or some other matching material. However, this couch has no leather on it. It is a sort of leather looking fabric. The whole reason I purchased this is because I thought the real leather would hold up longer to kids, so I was disappointed to find out that it isn't what I thought.
