It’s certainly a handsome couch, and my place feels more adult as a result. It isn’t near as lounge-y as the couch it replaced, but it’s an aesthetic upgrade. Quality-wise, you do get what you pay for. The tiny guy passed out on the couch in the picture likes to dig if he isn’t supervised, and the fabric will snag if we don’t stop him in the act. Overall, I do think I would repeat the purchase if I had it to do over again - especially at only $500.
