This is a beautiful sofa!!  It was packaged extremely well and it is VERY easy to put together.  I gave it 4 stars rather than 5 only because I would prefer the back to be higher, but the dimensions are clearly stated in the description so I was aware of that when I purchased it.  Don't hesitate to purchase this sofa -- not only is it beautiful, but it appears to be well constructed too, making it a HUGE bargain for the price!  Shipping was really fast; it was actually DELIVERED the day it was scheduled to ship!
