I was expecting a gray couch, its more tan and it sits very low. The pillows are nice but to get the look I wanted I have to replace them with darker pillows. I also plan to get legs made to raise the couch off the floor.  There were a lot of strings that needed to be cut off the pillows. Since I already had to return a couch (delivery company wouldn't take it up the stairs) I plan to make this work, but I won't be order any more large items.....update, I returned the couch!
