Nice feature, good to see Red Violet made this list, my husband and I shopped our sofas and furnishings from there early 2018. I must say I was skeptical at first but I was blown away after we received the sofas. Well made and exactly as they look in the picture and good advise from their staff as well. I just shared this post with the lady we were in contact with during our purchase, and I thought is should share my experience as well
