I like this sofa so much. I had it for a month now and it looks nice and elegant. The color is more of a burned light linen beige. Its not uncomfortable as some reviewers say, its not a sofa that you sink in either, it is somewhere between and more to the firm side. It comes in 3 boxes and is very easy to put together, you just slide the parts together, which is great in case you're a mover! I sprayed the sofa with Scotch fabric protect since it is light colored and I can't stand stains! It looks like a $2000 sofa from **.
