It has been one week since we put together this sectional sofa in the living room of our new apartment. The blue color is beautiful and the feel of the fabric is nice as well. So far the sofa feels sturdy. The seats are on the firmer side which I prefer. The chaise may feel little short esp. if you expect to lie down but sitting up I can extend my legs fully. The overall size of the sofa is perfect for smaller/compact apartments. For it's price I think it is definitely a good buy!
