Absolutely great little couch - can arrange in different ways and good value. It's lower to the ground and the back is shorter than I'm used to, but being 5'5", it's actually a much better fit. The seat is firm, which I also wasn't used to, but it turns out the firmness is a perfect contrast to the  very soft back pillows. Our big, tough guys scoffed at it, until they sat down; now they love it and I have a hard time getting them up! I'm starting to believe that bigger is not always better. The storage ottoman is a great, hidden surprise. The only drawback is that the instructions state the material has to be hand-cleaned very carefully and chemical-free. No issues yet, the dark brown is holding up well. We're buying the right-hand set to make a complete "U" sectional.
