The sofa was exactly what we needed for our home. I'm very happy that black actually came black and not that charcoal color as depicted in the picture.  Came in 2 boxes that were easy enough to store because the furniture came a week earlier than we were expecting and didn't have the old stuff out yet. Went together super easy, and is quite comfy.  I strongly suggest a cover for it if you have pets.  It's a hair magnet, other than that, we're very happy with our purchase.
