Me and my husband purchased this entire set over a year ago. It is holding up nicely, as I condition it every other month. The seat is soft, but not so much that you sink. And the construction is solid. Beware if you have cats, as they typically like to scratch the faux leather parts (back and sides). Also, the actual product color is much darker in person...just imagine the darkest brown. And lastly, I did some research recently, as I was looking for an ottoman that would match. It would seem that the "Abbyson Living: Harrison" and this one (Laguna) are one in the same. So I ordered the Harrison ottoman...a perfect match! I think Abbyson changes the name of their products frequently. If you go on their website, you can see that this set is now called "Kingsbury". But unfortunately, you won't find the matching ottoman in Overstock's inventory. I found mine on oneclick.com. Btw, the ottoman is huge. Read the measurements before ordering. Good luck!
