I was hesitant to purchase this sofa because there were no reviews and similar couches had complaints regarding the cushions being too firm. Fortunately I took a chance and bought this great couch. After 3-weeks, so far so good. The couch is on the firm side, but I feel it’s plenty comfortable to watch Netflix or take a nap. The velvet feel is very nice and the blue color is bold but not loud. I’m very happy with my purchase.
