I hunted around for a dark grey linen sofa but my concern was delivery because I have a narrow entry way. The fact that this sofa comes in 2 separate boxes with 4 main frame pieces made it very simple to get up my stairs and into my living room. I put the sofa together myself - it was very simple and took less than 10 minutes. The couch is attractive overall but the fabric is slightly denim like - not quite high end enough, however for the price it is completely suitable. I give it 4 stars instead of 5 for a slight disappointment in the texture of the fabric but I am happy with my purchase and would recommend it with the caveat that if a linen like fabric is important to you this couch might not satisfy...but you definitely have to spend close to 2X the price of this couch to fulfill a custom linen feel.
