I am so glad I purchased this sectional.  I was a little leary because you have to assemble it which totally out of my element.  But it was super easy.  The color and size is as described. The cushions come compressed.  Once you cut the plastic they just go back to its original state.  Lol I love it.  And it's really comfortable to sit on...does not look cheap at all. A definite Must Buy!!!!
