This has been my best purchase yet.  What a beautiful piece of furniture.  It looks perfect in our small living room!  After reading conflicting reviews on the feel of the cushion I was a bit reluctant but decided to order anyway because it was so elegant- glad I did!  The seat cushion is neither firm nor soft.  It is just right and looks great.  Thank you Wayfair- oh, I have been saying that a lot lately- LOL!
