Good news is that I did find enough time to assemble the couch this weekend. It seemed to go together and function as advertised. The foam is firm, just the way I like it!
The storage concept, renew-ability, wash-ability and simple contemporary style is what drew me to Home Reserve. (I have a bulldog that slobbers all over everything.) I had just about given up on it after getting all of your fabric samples until I saw that you added the leather line. I don't like fuzzy fabrics (like microfiber), which all of your fabric samples felt like to me. Also, knowing my dog, I had serious questions regarding the fabric's durability. Although not a real leather enthusiast, this gave me an alternative that I like the look and feel of. So far I am satisfied.
I'm getting ready to remodel the front three rooms in my house, which includes the living room that I bought these pieces for. That plan should allow me enough room for a second couch once completed. Assuming this couch and ottoman appear to be holding up well by the time I'm finished, I'll be placing more orders with you and recommending you to friends.
Thanks,
Jim

PRO: Very easy to assemble - the pieces fit easily, looks as expected. Great for little kids as cushion covers are easily removable and washable (we bought pet friendly fabric).
CONS: After a year, you can now see the numbers they carved into the front panels (below sitting area) thru the fabric. My suggestion: Tape over them, or maybe put index cards and tape over this so you will not see the dent in the fabric over time.
Also, side fabric panels were so snug, the barely cover the bottom of the pieces at the ends of the couch (the arm rests). So, you do see a little ply wood at the bottom.
Easy over all, but the last part - putting the sides of the couch on - was difficult to reach and tighten. Also, to recover the entire couch, you have to take the sides off the couch first. Kinda a drag, but if you don't do it that often, its not a big deal.
OVERALL: for the price, ability to change fabrics, etc. - two thumbs up. You get a descent couch for a great price!
