This settee is exactly what we were looking for! The fabric is exactly as pictured (we purchased the cream shade) and much nicer in quality than I had expected. Other review are correct in saying that this is a bit on the small side but my husband and I can both comfortably fit side by side (I am rather petite at 5'4" and he is a slender 6'0"). We are using this as a separation between our open-concept living and dining rooms and the lower back makes this perfect for that purpose. Finally, when reading other reviews before purchasing, we were concerned about assembly and hoped that the holes lined up -- it almost deterred us from buying. However, I was able to put this together on my own in under half an hour! (And it's still standing!! :) )

Overall a great purchase for the money. It is not something I would recommended for heavy daily use due to size and comfort, but as an accent piece this is wonderful.
