The couch has always had a weird, unpleasant smell. Also, the cushions are not comfortable. We bought it without sitting on it-- never again. We were duped by tasteful ads in Washington post. We assumed smell would dissipate over time but almost 2 years later it never has. Cushions make a weird crinkly crunching sound one associates less with cushioning and more with straw. No surprise then that sitting on is about the same. It was advertised as downy and soft. It is not. Don't be duped!
