Shape=exquisite.  Size=plentiful.  Looks= almost perfect (the backrest pillows are just a bit too thin).  Comfort= Great for sitting, just a hair to firm for my tastes to sleep on.  Material=Actually my favorite part of the couch.  Soft and robust at the same time.  4 out of 5 for me, But could easily be 5 of 5 for someone with slightly diferent tastes.  I kept the couch, and that should mean something.
