I love my new sofa. The slipcover fabric is oyster microsuede. It is a bit thicker than the sample. The cover was a bit puffy at the bottom of the skirt like it needs to be pressed. The fit over the sofa is quite good. Not too tight, not too loose. I have two short hair dogs that are allowed on the couch ( boston terriers) a tape lint roller cleans up any random hair beautifully.
