This couch looks very nice. The color is definitely darker than the picture, I ordered the tan or brown. I've had my couch for about two years now. It is very uncomfortable if you are going to be lounging on it often . The bottom and top cushions are very sturdy. I purchase this couch for my den in my bedroom and use it all the time. I am now looking for another comfy couch with style. Instead of a just a stylish couch. This piece is great for a room that hardly gets a lot of traffic but if you want to lounge on a couch this is not the one. It also will begin to get lent rolls over a period of time.
