We were looking for a comfortable couch that wasn’t to expensive because we knew our German Shepherd would  be using it too.  If you purchase this couch you definitely want to take the cushions out and lay them flat for at least 24hours then steam each one with a hand held steamer.  It makes the cushions firm and they will keep their shape after you put them on the couch.  It is comfortable but the back of the couch slants back at the bottom but I think a couple of pillows will help.  I was a little frustrated to find the couch went on sale a week after we purchased it but when I called to request a price adjustment the representative just said “No, we don’t do that”.   I am glad we purchased the couch.  It’s the first time we purchased a sectional with this shape and I like having the two chaises (mostly because our German Shepherd is always using one of the chaises).
