I am glad I ordered this sofa despite lack of reviews.  The color is as pictured and it is very comfortable.  The delivery team was very careful with the sofa.  It is huge so make sure you clear out everything in the entryway.  It is mostly assembled...you just need to insert the three backs along the rails...no tools needed.  It reclines fully to almost flat (about 160 degrees)--right and left only.  The middle does not recline.  Looks beautiful in the middle of my living room!
