Signature Design by Ashley Bladen Faux Leather Sofa, Gray

Snagged this on sale. 100% worth it. Drilling holes for the feet, which the delivery people would not do, was fankly a PITA, and the fact that the cushions slide out (maybe I'll add some velcro strips...) allllll the time is also a PITA. However!Having just moved, I was not in the market for a higher-end couch, so. This is super comfortable, the fabric has stood up to my dog launching herself off it at the window every time the mail carrier or a neighbor with a dog walks past, and it feels pretty sturdy overall. I did, because of other reviewers saying their couch arrived damaged, pay the $30 for the deluxe setup so that the delivery guys would take the packaging if the couch was undamaged and the couch itself if it did turn out to be broken. It was in perfect condition, but it was also worth it to not have to get rid of the giant box, lol (also the delivery guys were pretty great, very polite, brought the couch exactly where I asked, and were also extremely polite about telling me that no, they would not drill holes for the feet even if I handed them a drill).The fabric doesn't really feel like leather but it doesn't quite feel like fabric either. Somewhere in between. I like it. I love how it looks, as well, with the distressed leather pattern. I am quite satisfed.

I love this couch, I'm 300lb 5'7 and just had it delivered with an extra 20.00 for set up in any room of my choice which was phenomenal. I did not have to lift a finger besides opening the door And I'm so comfortable esp since I work from home. I feel so relax and the seat of the cushions are wide enough for multiple ppl to sit in their own space.

Nice couch with firm cushions, however, they slip a

* Pro: Looks nice in pictures, and is actually 32" high, so it does fit through a narrow door.* Con: I never thought I would write a one-star review, but I have to warn people.(a) If you ask for a 'standard delivery,' the carrier will only assign one person to deliver it. If you are in a rush to have something to sleep on like me and stupidly dont take the 'scheduled delivery' option, the driver will not even carry it up any steps, and will just dump it in your driveway. But I had just moved in and had wrist tenddonitis from side sleeping on an airbed, so I stupidly opted for 'standard delivery.' When I caught the driver about to drive away having dumped it on the curb, he showed me the delivery instructions. "It clearly says it only needs one person' he said. So I had to show him the page saying it would be delivered to front porch and told him I would refuse delivery and report him if he didn't carry it to my front door. What a terrible mistake. First he complained about how dirty the torn plastic wrapping was. He touched it, and his finger was black. "Take the plastic off and wash it before you take it inside," he said. Then when he shoved the bottom plate of his handtruck under the back of one end to heave it verticle, I discovered after unwrapping it he snapped the 1/2" x 3/4" piece of wood on the long edge of the back bottom that is the only thing holding the fabric in place. That piece doesn't even have any reinforcement, vertical or horizontal. It is so flimsy, a cat could break it. So I had thought the faux leather on the back meant I couild position it away from a wall. False. Do not get this at all unless the back it is to be against a wall. The only reason there is faux leather fabric on the back is to fool you into thinking it could be in the middle of a room. It can't. There is no way it will survive being away from a wall. There is absolutely no point in having the faux leather fabric on the back at all except to make it look good in photos.* Moever, the faux leather fabric is not only warm as others state. It is sweaty. After the delivery man thumped it in front of my door and drover off as fast he could, I unwrapped it and bagged the filthy platic, went inside. threw the inevirtably dirty trousers and shirt in the dishwasher and dressed again,, and rolled it in on a vacuum cleaner extension tiube. I marveled for a moment at how light such a long sofa was before noticing the broken back.(b) I didnt even get to being annoyed at there being no drill holes for the plastic feet. I thought "well, at least I can sleep without wrist pain" and climbed onto in in relief. The cushions shot out. I pushed them in again, taking care to make sure the black velcro on the back and two side corners was facing downwards. So far they have not slid out again, but there isn't any velcro on the sofa itself, only on the cushions, and the velcro is sewn in without anything underneath it, not removable, so you can't reverse the cushions or change their order.(c) Within two minutes I had to get up and wash the bottom and back cushions. They are NOT ONLY HOT, THET ARE SWEATY. So much for pretty faux leather fabric. Now it's covered with a queen-sized bedspread. I thought maybe I was just sweaty from rolling it through the door and tipping it sideways. Not so. I am writing this the middle of the second night. The faux leather fabric is also slippery, and the bedspread won't stay in place. My hair is sweaty. My back is sweaty. The sofa is wet with sweat. My wrist is not so so sore, but now my neck is sore because the arm cushions are too low and too firm. And there is a crumpled bedspread that was over the sofa back tucked behind the cushions on all two sides. Ok, apparently the velcro is holding the cushions in place better than I expected. But that's evidence the cushions are not as firm as others complain. But I wanted firm cushions. I am 235lbs and I can feel the two supports from the fron to the back holding the cushions in place when I lie on it.So now Im going to wash off the sweat and put my soaked pajamas in the washer too. In middle of second night. I'm going to keep it a few weeks to see if I actually continue to be so annoyed at it I want to return it. It will be the first time I will ever return anything I ever bought at Amazon except once I was shipped the wrong thing. So it was what I ordered, but I don't believe that should rate even two starsIf you have a new place with a narrow door like me, take the door off its hinges to get something else in. A cotton futon would be a better option. Don't fall for the pretty faux leather. You will hate yourself for it.

This was a great experience and the sofa is nice. I paid the $20 to have it delivered to “the room of my choice” because I didn’t want to drag it into my house. It arrived with cardboard around it and wrapped in plastic wrap. It was protected well. I was worried about some of the reviews saying they had damage. The delivery guys were on time, quick, and friendly. You do need to attach the legs/feet. But that was super easy. I’m pleased with the entire experience.

This couch and the matching furniture had the look and fabric I wanted, so I purchased it. I think it's comfortable to sit and lay on, but there are two flaws:1. The cushions constantly scoot outward and you have to push them back in.2. Most importantly, I've never had furniture with so many squeaks and creaks. The slightest movement causes the couch to creak and there doesn't seem to be anything I can do to prevent it. I hoped it would work itself out eventually, but after 11 months it has not, and I'm beyond annoyed with it, as well as beyond the return window.I wouldn't buy it again, and I'm not sure how long I'll keep this set.

Well put together and the fabric is so nice. I not only ordered this couch, I also got the matching recliner. Well worth the money.

I don’t normally take the time to review products, and I buy a lot from Amazon. This couch is perfect! It is solid and comfortable. The shipping was fast and the delivery people were great. There was no damage to the couch at all. We live in a rural setting and would have had to drive over an hour to buy this same couch at a furniture store, so this was so great! Saved time and money. Love it! I just popped back on to write a review about this couch and realize I already had, but didn’t hit submit. So here we are 3 months in and I still LOVE this couch. It’s so comfortable!
