Here were my choices: 1: Buy a loveseat that doesn't fit my budget 2. Buy a used loveseat that some naked fat guy has been sitting on for the last three years or 3. Buy an inexpensive loveseat from Amazon that not only looks good but one I can afford. As you can see, I chose the third option.
Let's face it, not one likes to buy furniture you haven't seen not have you sat on. It's an obvious risk so we go by the reviews and hope for the best. Well I must say this is very nice for the price. It's obviously vinyl but it's a nice vinyl. It looks and feels good. I have small kids at home so I don't have to freak out when they do something stupid like I would with a two thousand dollar leather couch. The cushions are firm but I'm sure over time they'll soften up a bit. The firmness would make this a nice waiting room couch. We use it for sitting but if you want a tv viewing type loveseat this may not be the one for you.
Highly recommended
We are pretty happy with this couch overall. Basically we were expecting, and got, sort of low-end Ikea quality. The material from which it is constructed it nice and it's comfy. Looks good too.
Couple of things we weren't anticipating:
1. It's a little lower than the other couches and chairs in our house. Nothing real unusual, but it is a relatively low seat couch. Also a little deeper than expected (from front to back) but withing the range of what's normal for a couch. [EDIT: the comment about it being low is wrong...see below]
2. The back support behind the cushions folds down for shipping. It stands up and is held in place by faux leather in the front and velcro in the back. That was a tiny disappointment. Still, it hasn't given us any trouble.
The back cushions come out but the ones you sit on do not. That's pretty common as well.
The color in the photo is accurate but I'd say it's less shiny than it appears in the photo. It's almost like a suede kind of feeling, rather than shiny.
Overall, this couch looks and feels good and was super economical--basically the price of a used couch on craigslist. I'd recommend this to anyone looking for a budget couch that looks and feels nice.

I take back what I said about this being a low couch. It's not. What I didn't realize is that on the bottom there is a zipper. If you open that pouch, you will find four legs, which easily screw in. I was using it without its legs when I said what I said about its height. Actually it is exactly the height you expect from a couch. The legs are heavy duty plastic (not wood) but quality and don't tend to scratch the floor.
The back of this couch is very satisfactory too, and the velcro that holds the cushions in place has been very helpful. I take back everything negative I said or implied about this couch. It was really a great purchase! I recommend it without reservation.
Starts off great! After a couple of months of use the seats look like they have holes in them and when you sit it sinks in to the seat
Just received our couch yesterday. It's comfortable, but there is concern with the one side. Does anyone else that purchased this couch have seam "scarring"? It looks like the initial seam was pulled and redone. Please see the photos.
I bought this sofa as well as the matching couch. It looks great and has done great. Even though I have two young children, three dogs, and a cat.
I bought this loveseat and sofa for work. I thought it was crazy to buy furniture without seeing it but I took a chance because they looked so nice and I am a prime member.
They are both so nice! They are very comfortable. We have a lot of elderly people coming to our office and they are high enough so people can get up from sitting in them easily. I highly recommend these for your home too!
well worth every penny, was shipped on time and hours before time window. easy to set up and remove from box. service was exceptional and polite. it is a tall box it comes in and delivery men went out of their way to get it to my apt. This service was on track and exceptionally well worth the wait. legs included so easy to install. a keeper for many years.
Besides for finding a cigarette and lighter from china, EVERYTHING else was amazing! Couch came in a huge box, assembled. All we had to do was screw on the legs and spend 1 hour figuring out how to get the back cushions velcroed to the back. JUST to warn you, you have to lift up the back so the velcro sticks. It comes folded over so it can fit in the box!! Very comfortable and so far after 4 days, we love it! But either someone tried it and their lighter and cigarette fell or the packer's cigarette and lighter fell in!
