great casual sofa
My boyfriend and I purchased this sofa almost two years ago, and we still love it.
Because it is especially deep, it's great for spooning on the couch to watch a movie, or to use as an extra sleeping space for guests. (A full sized set of sheets work well, though fit obviously isn't perfect.)
Some cons: Ours is upholstered in the Kelp colored "john linen" fabric, and there is some purple-ish fading which I think is due to sun exposure. We flipped the bottom cushion (which is identical on both sides) over and try to keep a blanket or sheet down in the daytime to protect the fabric dye. I love the midnight blue color that CB2 is now offering but would be waring of fading.
The back cushion does often getting out of shape and need a good fluffing- it's not my favorite feature on the couch because it often gets flattened down and needs lots of molding/manuearvering to get back to the shape you see in the pictures. Can be annoying, but if you're looking for a comfy, casual sofa, this is a great choice.

Comfy Comfy
These piece is really... did I say comfortable already? We put it in our little reading space and it is definitely a piece that we can sit on, relax, and enjoy a good book or just nap. Like other owners reviewing, because it is so comfy the cushions get misshaped easily so not sure how this thing might hold up in the long run, but I would definitely buy it again.

Very Disapointed
The floor model in the store looked and felt great. However we have been disappointed with the quality of the one we received. Within a month of having the couch the fabric started pilling, feathers started coming out and poking us and the back pillow has completely lost it's shape (and yes I rotated and flipped regularly!) The main cushion also lost it's shape quickly. Would not recommend.

Too comfortable for words
When we first tried this sofa, we didn't want to get up. The velvety material feels cozy against the skin, and the lounging posture invites to sleep. The only drawback is just that: it may be difficult to get up from, especially for elderly. We use this sofa in our entertainment room, and it has caused me more than once to fall asleep mid-way through a movie.

Comfy
I wasn't thinking to buy this sofa at all initially but after a full day looking at furnitures I was exhausted and justnwanted to take a break. However the sofa was so comfortable that I was completely blown away. I even ignored the fact that I wanted a white sofa initially. I bought the fabric protection but the sofa still gets dirty easily and white dust marks do show on the fabric. I like the fact that the fabric is cotton. This is not a statement or even modern eye catching piece but it's very comfy for my height (6').

This couch is very comfy.
Finally- a cb2 item I truly like. Its comfy and I had wanted the green they had previously so I thought I wasn't sure about the navy but I like it. I am happy with this purchase.

Comfy but hard to keep in shape
The sofa is very comfy, and it looks very nice on pictures. However, after a few weeks, the shape of the cushions starts getting flatter, and I had to reshape it almost everyday.

Transformer
This beautiful sculpture of a couch cradles me so well in the different ways I like to sit and lounge. I can sit upright and "properly" when I'm entertaining more formally, but when I'm with friends and family, the nice distance from the front edge of the seat to the backrest lets anyone recline and relax to the max. There's a lot of room for pillows to let the lounger create a really good comfort zone. My Piazza is beautiful in its long, un-chopped rectangles, right down to the broad low-platform feet on the corners to complete the excellent proportions. The armless design and beanbag-feel cushions are are a nice invitation for my guests to really make themselves at home.

great couch
I bought this couch last year in the kelp color. My partner and I were looking for a couch that our toddler liked playing on and could crash out on without having too far to go if she fell out of bed. She loves it! As do we. It's very comfortable jsut soft enough without being mushy. And it's got a great look - clean modern lines, not too austere, and dresses up great with a couple of decorative pillows. The only downside is it started sagging a little in the middle fairly quickly. But we still love it.

Great TV couch
I bought this same couch in the "kelp" color (which color is no longer offered) because it matched my rug. I love it! It is perfect for our family room. We wanted something more relaxed for TV-watching -- a sofa that is low, lounge-worthy and comfortable. This is it!! It is super-comfortable -- in fact, our niece slept on it when she visited us and said it was extremely comfortable. It does have feathers inside it, which contributes to its comfort, so you have to flip the cushions weekly or so if you are using this sofa as your primary sitting area. So, if complete relaxation is your goal, then this couch is for you! Also, the design is simple and attractive.

A SOFA TO LOVE
I fell in love with this sofa. It looked so comfy and it IS. It's great for movie watching and everybody in the house likes to claim it -- including my two black lab/pitt mix dogs, who think it's one giant dog bed. (It acutally appeared in an earlier CB2 catalog with a Golden Retriever on it.) Don't worry...I have it covered when dogs are around to protect it.
Recommendation for anyone buying: get the fabric protection. It's worth it.

love love love it
I saw this sofa online and went to the store to see if it was as great as described. It lived up to the description and more. The sofa is so comfortable and looks great. The back pillow can be removed and the sofa can be used as a twin bed. The only draw back was the crazy expensive shipping. However, delivery went very smoothly and they took away the packing material.

super comfy but miss arm rests.....
This couch is great. I love the low, deep seating and it's great as a guest bed also. My only complaint is that with my previous couch I liked to lay on the couch and use the arm rest as a "pillow" while reading or watching TV, but this couch doesn't have any. So I'm stuck sitting upright all the time which sometimes gives me a bad ache. I have back problems and this isn't the most supportive couch- but it looks great and it's nice that it's the same level as the coffee table.

Comfy sofa
This sofa is very comfy and perfect for a modern living room. It's also big enough to accommodate a sleeping guest comfortably. Plus it's environmentally friendly and that is important to me.

Wow!
This sofa is awesome! It is soooo comfy and I love it so much! The cushions are big and make you feel so comfy and you can really lounge on this sofa all day long!

Absolutely comfy and perefect for just chillin'
Amazed at how comfy it is. Sat at the store like the reviewer above. And will be making the purchase in a couple weeks when we move into new apartment.
Only downside is that the the cover can't be washed. So for a family with young kid(s), this absolutely needs to be covered up with some thick sheet - which is my plan -to avoid making it all dirty quickly. But the sofa design is so simple that it doesn't seem too hard to do that.

Oh so comfy!
This sofa is soooo comfortable. I sat down on it at the store at the end of a long day and could not leave the store. and this color is great! Finally, CB2 is coming up with a different color option (green would have been great as well!) I am dying to buy it but the $279 shipping charge is too much so deliberating on it for the last few months.
