this sectional is what I actually hoped for.  I don't usually buy furniture without being able to touch and feel it first.  I took a chance and I am very happy thus far.  don't know how long it will last being that I can be a couch potato at times and sometimes fall asleep on them.  this one is beautiful and the assembly wasn't too bad either.  the delivery men were nice and on time.  the price was competitive for a piece of furniture of this type.  I would recommend it.  this is the first item I've ever purchased from Wayfair.  had seen all the TV advertisements and finally gave in and made a purchase.  im not big on online order either...but this one was no disappointment and that's a plus.  now perhaps ill get my recliner and bed from Wayfair too.  we'll see.  i'm looking....
