I thought I was in love with this sectional once we had it delivered. Then I realized that there was no armrests on either side of the sectional. I use the armrests to get up of the sofa. This has now put a damper on my love for this sofa. I wish I had paid attention to the arms more before I purchase this sofa. I was so happy about the style and price I forgot about the most important thing for me to get up from the sofa when I am home alone. :-(. That is why I am giving a 4 star review.
