I must say this couch far exceeds expectations! I was very hesitant about ordering online, but it seemed to be everything I was looking for and couldn't find in my area. I just went for it, and I'm sure glad I did! It is absolutely GORGEOUS! Even better than expected. It is so comfortable, I can barely peel myself off of it. I should mention the great experience I had with Birchlane...everyone was so nice and helpful all the way to the delivery staff. Don't hesitate to take the plunge on this one, you WON'T be dissapointed.
