And the quality for the price is daylight robbery
the beige colour I went for is a little more saturated than the photo so it doesnt match my carpets as well as I was hoping for
Hate the colour as more yellow then beige cats like it
Deceptive pictures too
the image is misleading
Probably my own fault for not reading the dimensions properly
