I love the feel and look of the richly blue fabric. When putting the couch together, I could feel some of the fabric starting to strain the staples in some areas, so I reinforced them with heavy duty furniture staples all around the bottom of the couch to ensure the fabric doesn't come free anywhere. The couch is a little on the firmer side, but as a spare bed and as a more relaxed and laid back option after sitting in the office chair for too many hours, its a great alternate seating arrangement in a smaller work area. I'm really happy with this purchase. This is smaller than love seats that I'm familiar with, but this is wider and larger than an individual chair. Its a love chair.
