Decent if you’re looking to protect your sofa. Hem stitching is completely fine, but there’s no other stitching in this item. It appears a hot press seals the two layers of fabric together in a pattern. It covers my sofa but quickly learned if you have an energetic animalkid the arm covers just keep falling off. I tucked them under the seat portion to help secure the cover better. Don’t think I’ll buy another one of these again- I’ll just continue to purchase better made quilts as sofa covers. This will definitely come off the sofa when guests come over.
