the couch seems well-built and I'm so glad the chaise attaches to the sofa.  our last couch did not attach and the pieces were always slipping and sliding out of place.  nice material.  The only thing no one seems to talk about it how very narrow the width of the couch seems.  Yes, I know this was in the dimentions listed but I guess I just wasn't expecting it.  Even still , it will work for us for the short-term at least, and I'm glad we made this purchase.
