Initially I wrote a not so flattering review, of this item, I may have over reacted, and did not consider all the variables involved; but never mind that, if you read it, ignore it and read what I'm about to say:This set is absolutely wonderful, it has the feel and look of luxury, and the comfort is so extreme and relaxing, I promise- you will find yourself dosing right in the middle of conversation.The quality is unmistakable, and without the exorbitant cost. The set is designed with class, beauty and comfort, as a top priority; it's sturdy, and no one would believe the sofa and loveseat is not one solid unit. At first I was a bit apprehensive about furniture in sections, but now-- those doubt has vanished and I'm enjoying my new exception living room set. I'm not finish with updating my furniture and I will be making another purchase for my basement, perhaps not the same design, but they have tons of wonderful designs to choose from, and I will.If you are considering a buy from this seller, you can't go wrong, customer service, easy communication, and they stand behind each sell and the quality of their product.So we just moved in to a new home and had some extra space to decorate. Saw these on Amazon and they had 2 in stock, so wasn't sure if I should purchase them or not. While talking to family and discussing the topic, one got sold. So I decided it is a sign that people like them and apparently buy them. Paid! They shipped them with FedEx from California. The only con is that they don't arrive together. The whole set is in pieces and we ended up waiting for more than half of them over a week.However, assembly is more than easy - just need to align the pieces together and snap! All 3 were done in less than 5 minutes. A little hard, but comfy! Love the way they look, they fit in with our baby grand piano in the sunken living room! Color is also matching our interior. If they match yours, do not hesitate to get them!Make sure they line up correctly when you install them, but we love these couches! They look just like the picture. I'm not sure why the description says light blue because they look more like a royal blue; I would say they are as pictured. My daughter left an electronic on one spot and the heat from the cord or something left a very small burn mark, but overall, we love these! So cute, yet elegant! I would say they are firm, but not uncomfortable. We have them in the front room that we don't sit in all the time.We purchased the light grey velvet three piece set and it is truly a beautiful addition to our living room. It came unassembled in multiple pieces per unit. Despite having one piece which was misaligned and did not hook up, it was reasonably easy to assemble. The shipping company was very accommodating in getting our sofa arm re drilled so that it could be assembled. All in all, we are very pleased with our new furniture. It is well worth the cost and would be much more expensive purchased in a retail store.This is a steal for the price! We ordered the 3 piece set- it came in 9 boxes. All the boxes were clearly marked so assembly was a breeze! It does take 2 people. We had no problems at all....except we "thought" it was missing the cushions & legs for the loveseat. But once I read the instructions, it clearly said the cushions & legs were inside the seat. When we flipped the seat over, there was a sticker with an arrow that said "pull here" & there was the cushions & legs just like the diagram showed. This furniture is even better than I expected... the fabric is chenille & is super soft.....it is sturdy & looks very well-made & expensive....the nail head trim is perfect. I would definitely buy it again & an to shop this manufacturer when I look for more furniture.Easy to put together and comfortableGreat customer service and a perfect product my family and I are very satisfied thank you seller for all the work you did to resolve our issue in a timely manner!
