How does bonded leather hold up compared with real leather?

Bonded leather is a polyurethane coating over leather fibers. It looks similar at first but tends to peel or crack sooner than top-grain leather, particularly on seats used every day. Expect a shorter lifespan in a busy household.

Do all seats recline, or just one?

Every seat has a split back that reclines from 90 to 160 degrees on its own, so one person can lie back while others stay upright. The footrests are separate manual levers on each arm.

How much space do I need behind the sofa?

The set is 40 inches deep, and the backs lean back when reclined, so leave several inches of clearance behind it. Measure your room before ordering, especially in a corner or against a wall.

Is assembly really tool-free?

Yes. The backs slide into the sofa base and lock in place without tools. Small parts may be packed underneath, so flip the pieces over to check before you start.

Will the sofa and loveseat fit through a standard door?

The set ships in pieces, and the backs detach, which helps in tight hallways. Check the width of your doorways and stairwell against the base dimensions before delivery.
