The sofa was exactly as described! I am thrilled with my purchase! I can see why it received so many five star ratings. I searched a long time on-line to find the one I wanted that had also received great ratings. I am very particular, and after seeing the sofa, I am puzzled by the ratings that weren't five stars. I had an overall great experience with this purchase. Delivery was perfect and the men who delivered the sofa were the absolute best! They were very careful and even cleaned their hands before they unpacked it! Wow - have you ever seen that???
