    It took a while for me to actually get this couch. The first one was damaged in shipping, but Great Offer Stock sent another out. The color description is accurate, it is grey. Already knowing how fabric tends to look, I wasn't shocked when I got it. I would consider this more of a "Mink" color, it is grey, but has undertones of purples and browns. Since the fabric is velvet, it really does change color and look different depending on your wall color. The light reflection will make this look lighter during the day or when the over head lights are on. the couch is sturdy, and easy to put together. Just screwing in 5 legs. The style is fabulous! And the couch is comfortable.... I like my couches a little firm, and this couch is that. One thing I noticed is that one of the tufted buttons is missing at the top....I refuse to get a new couch over this so I will be contacting them to see if I can't get a new button. If not, I will just remove one of the buttons that are lower and put it in the missing place. As the missing one was towards the top of the couch. Over all, for a inexpensive couch...this is a great one, and good quality. Fabric is nice pile.

    I wish Great Offer Stock let me include a photo with this review. The couch is purple. I have a grey cat, when he sits on it, he doesn't even remotely match it, because he's not a purple cat. It's a great looking sofa, but it definitely leans very, very cool - so it's been a struggle trying to fit it in with our warmer color scheme and I'm having to buy all new accessories and a new area rug to try to make it work. The pictures online of this thing vary wildly in color, so much that I'm guessing they had a separate lot that came out significantly more purple than the rest. I love the couch, but don't buy it if you're looking for the warm grey color in the picture, you'll be disappointed. To give you a realistic view of the couch, Google image search for "barrister velvet sofa" - most of the pictures are of this grey sofa, but a few of them are distinctly more purple -hued, those are what this sofa looks like in real life. I hope this helps!

  • Beautiful, firm sofa

    We did not have the shipping issues described by other customers. We received a shipment notification, filled out the requisite information online, and then the local delivery service called and let us know when it was scheduled for delivery. They gave us the option to reschedule for another date, which wasn't necessary for us. Altogether it ended up taking a little over 2 weeks to get it (purchased Sep 24, received Oct 10). The sofa arrived within the scheduled window, and the delivery team brought it into the house, attached the legs, and covered it in a plastic tarp (we had some flooring construction going on in another area of the house at the time) that I provided so that it wouldn't get dusty. The sofa is beautiful, and is a true gray color. I cannot speak for the color lots described by others, but my sofa definitely was NOT purple. It's a rich, deep gray, and has a light gray sheen where the velvet pile catches light. The piping is black, as advertised, though I would have prefered it to be a bit smaller. The diameter of the piping has a cartoonish quality that cheapens rather than modernizes the formal, elegant style of tufted velvet. The legs are sturdy with an espresso stain. I will say that it is a fairly firm sofa, and the arms are too low for practical use. If you're looking for a soft sofa, this is not the sofa for you. I will need to find or make pillows, and this is a difficult fabric/color/style combination to coordinate, since velvet is a little bit like velcro with fibers from other rich fabrics. Again, not a problem for me, but some people may find that annoying or limiting in terms of decor options. As some other reviewers mentioned, quality control does seem to be an issue with this manufacturer. The backrest portion of the sofa I received is broken; the spring there is bottoming out and making a very loud noise for anyone who tries to lean back on that half of the sofa. The right side is perfect. I sent a note to Great Offer Stock today to let them know. Waiting to hear back within the 48 hour window. Overall, I am pleased with the look and feel of the sofa. Just need to get the back fixed or replaced and am planning to purchase 2 arm chairs to coordinate.

    I was very impressed with this sofa. It looks so elegant until you don't even want to sit in it. Yet, it is very comfortable and inviting. The grey color is striking and makes the living room look like a showroom.

    I was not a fan of this couch. In person it looked very inexpensive. The velvet was very shiny and it was not very sturdy. I ended up sending it back. It look nice in the picture but the quality of the couch is very cheap looking. I would not recommend.

    Very very firm. Looked nice and vintage but wouldn't purchase again.
