The positives are that we liked the feeling and color of the corduroy and it was slim enough to bring to our basement. However, we were really disappointed in the quality and don’t believe it’s worth the nearly 1400. When you sit down, it creaks like the flimsy wooden frame might crack if you lean on it the wrong way. The small metal supports that connect the back to the frame are also flimsy. Lastly, it’s just not comfortable. The cushions are very firm and would not make for cozying up to a basement movie (which is what we intended for). We ultimately decided to return at an additional 80 expense, which isn’t horrible, but still frustrating, as we are back to the drawing board.
