We bought this as a replacement couch for our pup- who looks out the window (we don’t sit much on it), so we didn’t want something inexpensive. The plus we can literally remove and wash the entire fabric area when it gets dirtyhairy, it looks modern, and it is comfortable. The minus it’s backing is not as hardy, instead It’s a thinner backing with squishy pillows. For the price I get it though. The dark gray color looks more deep dark navy than gray to me. I do wish it was a bit more desaturatedneutral toned to go with creamswood colors.
