I am going to take color samples and a small rug I purchased that matches the larger rug I got for the living room. We purchased the particular sofa because it has power lumbar built in. My husband is disabled and this is one of the few sectionals he could sit on comfortable. It only comes in this color. So I am going to make it work. Thank you for your help

Good luck. I am sure you can do that.

The photo of just the sectional with the white background looks more gray, but the picture of it in a fully furnished room looks more beige to me.

I would go to Benjamin Moore or another paint store like that and get a few different samples to try out on your wall to see what works best. It's not just the sofa color that impacts that - the lighting in the room can make colors read very differently. Get some that skew more grey and others that skew more beige, and it will be easy to see which direction works best i nthe actual room.

The colors you see on your computer/phone screen are not the same you see when you look at the sofa in person. Even light (natural/el. bulb) makes a big difference. So, it's impossible to be accurate.

BTW: also make sure they explain EXACTLY what "genuine leather" means...

Thank you I did get paint samples and I have a rug I want to put in front of the sectional, so I am going to go back to the store. That way I can bring samples of the tile with me too and see what color will go well with the livingroom as well as kitchen too.

Be sure you also check on the lighting. If you have lots of light or very little...that can cause a change in the color.

As far as the pix...the two versions look different, one more grey, one more creamy white.
