We have moved into a house with a very expansive living room and this frames in it perfectly with room for end tables left. The gray is very light, almost a heathered gray. I am seeing some slumping in the lounge but over all I think it will keep its shape and because I’m 5’2’’ I love that I can touch my feet to the ground while my back touched the back (aka this is a short person couch) my husband is 5’9’’ and his feet dangle off the lounge.
