ETHAN HOME Uptown Dark Brown Faux Leather Modern Sofa

This sofa goes with the other Uptown Microfiber Vinyl chairs which are Chocolate Brown and sold on Overstock as well as the loveseat which has sold out. For some reason the posting for the sofa doesn't mention the color.<p>The cushions are removable but not reversible. They are supported by fabric webbing. The arms are well padded.Although the box was torn in shipment the only flaw we found was a tear where a the vinyl was attached to the front stretcher bar by staple. But the cushion covers it.<p>The seating is firm but comfortable. I don't know how it will hold up. We've only had it six days.<p>A tag attached to the sofa says among other things "Only quality leather is used to ensure style and durability". This tag is misleading, since the sofa is not leather. But since we purchased it online, didn't see the tag and Overstock clearly stated the fabric was vinyl micro-fiber, the tag did not lead us astray. I do wonder about the veracity of other statements made on the tag.<p>(Due to Overstock review rules I won't name the company whose name appears on the tag.) This petite sofa will add to your home elegance for sure.<p>The sofa was made in Sanxiang Town in Zhongshan City in Guangdong Province southern China. The workers who made the sofa did a fine job.

I would recommend this product to anyone who needs a cheap, decent couch and who hates shopping for furniture as much as I do. This is a vinyl couch. It is made in China. It looks like a vinyl couch made in China. It is good enough for me. I wanted a brown couch that would be delivered quickly. This fit the bill and I am completely satisfied with my purchase. I bought $70 of pillows to put on my vinyl couch and it looks fine. Shipping was fast; I received the couch within 5 days. It came in 3 giant boxes delivered by UPS. FYI: UPS will charge you $4 if you want to schedule your delivery for a certain day (for example, if you can't be home during the day on Tues or Wednesday, but Thursday would be fine). The only tool necessary to assemble the couch is a Phillips head screwdriver. The directions for assembly are not wonderful, but I quickly decoded them and I was sitting pretty within 45 minutes of its arrival. When assembled, the couch is sturdy, but not indestructible. I would not allow adults (especially large adults) to jump on the couch. The cushions are firm and the couch is sort of narrow. I am a small person and I could take a nap on it, but I am not sure a larger human being would be able to comfortably sleep on it. Two adults could NOT lay on it together unless one wants to end up on the floor. The only reason that I am not giving this 5 stars is that the vinyl is pretty thin and within 2 days there were a few little scrapes and scratches in the vinyl from where my cat decided to stretch her claws (kitty got a manicure once I noticed the damage). It is hardly noticeable, but if you have clawed animals or humans that wear sharp clothes, consider yourself warned. This couch is not going to last forever. However, I don't want it to last forever. In a few years, when I am on my feet, I will buy a nice brown leather couch, and I will honor the memory of this vinyl couch as I donate it to Goodwill. This couch may not be Mr. Right, but it is a great Mr. Right Now.

This thing was a bear to put together, but I love the firmness, the high seat, and the fact that it's up off the floor. Unfortunately, my cats have already beat up the arms and back trying to get to the window, so, if you have cats that like a window seat, I recommend protecting the back and arms somehow. This is not the sofa's fault, though. I'd buy the loveseat, too, but it's out of stock.

This sofa is stylish and modern. It looks great in our den. We have several dogs, and the sofa is holding up well. However, the cats have caused some damage by scratching the arms. I would recommend this sofa, especially to someone without cats. It is a good quality for the price.
