Its a couch that satisfies on basic criteria - it is easy to assemble, comfortable to sit on and is sturdy. It is definitely not super soft and plush but it does the job. I dont feel any wiring or anything underneath the cushions so no complaints like that. The back cushions are soft too so thats very nice. Color is a dark grey. No specific complaints where this couch is concerned - it does the job but just doesnt feel expensive and plush. For ~300 I think it is a good buy - all the other 3 seater sofas at that price range had issuesfelt cheaply made as far as I could tell. This one is good and satisfies on all basic criteria.
