My 18 year old grandson and I had put aside two hours today to assemble the couch. I was not needed. From the time he took it from the box, assembled it, and threw away the box, it took him 30 minutes!
The material is red, very soft like velvet. Very comfortable seating to lie down or just sitting on it will fit 2 adults and 1 child. Lots of room in comfort!
The color is vibrant.. I will need to change my drapes next to it, since the drapes are blue/maroon check, and really doesn't go with couch. Was going to do this anyway. I am hoping to find a red/yellow check....or red and gold stripes.
The pillows are nice and comfy. They are bright, but spring is here!
The size if the loveseat is impressive. I am 5 ft 3, and I can now actually lie down without my feet over the edge! A bigger person could sleep on it, with feet on the arms!
I love the zippered cushions. I used to have a velvet couch with zippers, and it was much easiernto keep clean than steam cleaning! I
I would call this casual, but you could make it formal by the accessories near it.
When delivered, the ups man brought into the house on a dolly. We got it last week, but today was first time to have time to assemble.
I have two dogs..A 90 pound black lab mix and a 35 pound whippet cattle dog. The whippet never chose to sit on the other loveseat..she prefers the bed. However, the lab loves the old loveseat, so we just moved it to another area, so he can continue to use it, instead of the new one. And, I can also use it to watch TV without glasses. But, it is a formal couch, and the color does not go with anything anymore!
I love the old loveseat...I paid $100 for it at a yard sale 15 years ago. It has gone through several dogs and little children. I wish I could have gotten one similar, but my wallet says no. I think if I wanted to replace it , would coat me around $1500.. Still usable, but I have been stitching it for the thinning areas, and I had to put a board under it.
But, it lasted 15 years, before things falling apart.
I don't expect this couch to last that long.
I will be happy to get between five and seven years.
The back cushions are not attached, a good idea. They are higher than most, so I would not recommend to put in front of a low window.
I am a happy camper, so far, neither dog has attempted to jump on it, good! They both are shedding and have tiny black hairs that cling!
Will I buy another piece of furniture from Overstock?
Yes, I will.. My first time buying a couch by mail!
Don't hesitate to buy this...I am hoping it won't make me hungry all the time..red makes you hungry!
So, for a couch under $500, no shipping charges,
A lovely color and soft material...the cushions are not too soft, nor too hard. But just right. And it does not stick out from the wall as much. Great for small rooms.
In rate bit 5 stars
