We got this for our basement in time for our annual get-together with close friends. It was in a manageable box and was relatively straight-forward to assemble. The color (emerald green in our case) looks exactly like the pictures on the product page. Our friends and family loved the sofa. People were taking turns sitting on it and getting their pictures taken! In its few weeks of being with us, the cushions have remained firm and sturdy. It remain to be seen whether the sofa stands the test of time. I will update my review after a few months of use.
