The velvet material and color are lovely. The description says light gray but the True color is more of a soft seafoam green with a gray tinge￼￼￼￼. It’s really pretty! It was fairly easy to put together, however, it did take some finagling to get the arms to go on correctly. This isn’t the couch to pour onto and watch movies. It’s comfortable to sit on for a little while, but the seat cushions are not very thick and the foam has already started breaking down￼￼￼￼￼ only after a couple weeks. ￼
