Happy to add my enthusiastic thumbs-up to the earlier reviews. Sofa arrived this past weekend and it is absolutely gorgeous, very high quality, solidly built, and very comfy. I looked everywhere for a similar sofa, and did find several at much higher prices (double or more). Like others I was really nervous about ordering a sofa sight unseen (or "sight un-sat-on"), but I decided to trust all the positive reviews and made the leap. While waiting for it to arrive I almost talked myself out of it and cancelled the order, but I am SO glad I didn't. Let me just reiterate all the positives stated in earlier reviews and not waste more space on that. Simply, yes, its all that! It may be more helpful to address some of the unanswered questions or concerns of other reviewers, if it helps you to decide. First, THE COLOR: I ordered the blue, and after doing so, was most nervous that perhaps it would not be the blue I was hoping for, a deep navy. Let me assure you that if you want a navy sofa, you will get one in this sofa! Yes, color is in the eyes of the beholder, and there are countless shades of "navy." But I feel by any definition, this is a navy sofa. (And I agree, Great Offer Stock, fabric samples would be awesome). COMFORT: This is a very comfy and very supportive sofa. It is not a super "soft" one, if you compare it to a down-filled sofa (which this is NOT). Personally I don't like down-filled sofas, as I don't love sinking far back on the back cushions and deep into the seat cushions. If that's the kind you like, you might find this too "hard." But everyone in my family -- kids and adults included -- agree that this is "fall asleep comfy," cushions are really thickly stuffed, and I love that. SIZE/MOVING IT IN: Happily, we had no problem getting this in the house. The delivery guys unpacked it outside and got it through a 35" door opening in seconds flat, despite the 44" depth of the sofa. But this is a big sofa. Agree with earlier reviewers: measure your space carefully and make sure this will work with your space and existing furniture, as it is definitely deeper than your average sofa. Great Offer Stock measurements are accurate. And kudos by the way on the shipping experience. It took about 3-1/2 weeks to arrive, shippers were great, and the included-in-the-price "white glove" service went perfectly so thanks Great Offer Stock (making this an even better value!). Finally, a word about the sofa fabric. I'm not sure I'd call this true velvet. I think if velvet and ultra suede had a baby, it would be this fabric. But its wonderfully soft and luminous like velvet, and I think probably more durable and easier to clean than velvet, so its just fine with me. And at least in the navy color, its really impossible to see the difference. You should just know. I think that covers it. I highly recommend this sofa, hard to imagine anyone would regret it. It is a total score!
