Best starter sofa ever. We knew buying it that wouldn’t be our dream sofa, but it honestly surpassed our expectations. We are really happy with how it looks and the style and sturdiness of it. However, and this is why 3-star review, there isn’t a chaise. Unless you count having to flip the ottomansseats upside down where you can unzip the bottom…but there’s unfinished woodnails that you definitely don’t want to store any blankets in. We were really wanting that storage as we’ve moved into a smaller apartment and we’re quite disappointed after we built it, that there’s no useable storage. Otherwise a great buy, especially if you don’t need that storage.
