I ordered this sofa after previously owning a lime green MCM true vintage sofa that was reupholstered in a synthetic wool. That sofa was virtually indestructible to my cat's claws. I thought going for something similar would be a safe bet. I have had the sofa a day, and so far I love it. The color is a rich, royal purple and looks as sophisticated as a purple sofa can.
I can see how the buttons would be easily pulled on to the point of breakage, so that will require caution. That said, for wool, this is very soft; more soft than the green predecessor I had.
I gave the sofa 5 stars for an easy, affordable *** and classy buy. Delivered in 2 weeks and with quality packaging. I also had a visit with the Great Offer Stock customer service and that was pleasant as well. Great overall buying experience.
