Gorgeous!!The fabric is a super soft velvet, however it feels pretty firm when you sit on it. I I placed it at the end of my king bed and it looks amazing. It's a very solid and sturdy piece of furniture. It is about 6 inches wider than my bed, which is fine.  However, I didn't realize that it was so deep. It looks more like a couch than a bench. As others stated, you could literally sleep on it, if you needed to.  So I would advise anyone considering this to pay attention to the measurements.  Definitely looking forward to lounging on this for years to come!
