Longest lasting purchase
This review is not exactly for the recent purchase of this sofa. We actually bought the Cameron 15years ago when we moved to our first house. It has been in our living room where my family sits on it all the time.
We watch TV, sleep and snack while on this sofa. It is comfortable in the summer and winter, and only lately has it started sagging. We are now empty nesters, and are getting ready to move to an apartment. I am considering the Cameron again since we like it so much (in a different color of course). Great piece of furniture. Well worth the $$$$.

very disappointed
After looking forward to this couch to arrive for 8 weeks, I am gravely disappointed in the workmanship of the Cameron as delivered. It doesn’t appear to be the quality that I would expect from Crate and Barrel or Lee Industries, the furniture manufacturer. It appears that the fabric was cut wrong, and the piping is crooked, not uniform, and the back of the couch puckers for some reason (should be smooth and tight). I had a friend come over and look at it just for a reality check, and he found more issues than i had initially. I have sent pictures to C&B customer service and I am hoping that this couch will be replaced with one that is the level of quality that I expected. I am waiting to hear how the furniture vendor responds to my complaints and how C&B customer service corrects this.

Exceeds our expectations
We got this sofa (and a matching love seat) about 5 months ago. The contemporary but classic design looks wonderful in our living/family room. We specified "extra firm" cushions and back, and find this to be very comfortable. The two pieces get used every day and we couldn't be happier. Delivery was much faster than expected, and in every respect we would highly recommend this furniture.

Saggy Cushions
I have always had good luck with Crate & Barrel furniture but this couch is very disappointing. Even though this couch is in a room that we don't use that often, the cushions began to sag after a few months. It looks sloppy and we end up sitting on pillows when using it because it is so uncomfortable. The fabric is nice, but I expected much more for the price.

Love it!!
I love the clean lines and contemporary feel. I was worried that it would not be comfortable but it is great. We ordered it with a microfiber fabric and it looks amazing.

Great couch
Bought this couch and have had it for about 2 months, we like it a lot. Its sturdy and well made and the fabic seems like it will last a very long time. The couch is firm but is already softening up but doesn't seem like it will sag. Grey color is beautiful and will compliment anything.

Two Strikes
I purchased this product and had several issues. It took 14 weeks for the 1st couch to arrive. It had several flaws: uneven piping, seat cushions did not align, the fabric pulled in areas and stuffing was uneven just to name a few of the issues. Another couch was ordered, it was delivered much quicker than the 1st, however it too had some issues. The fabric and piping were perfectly aligned this time, however the stuffing was still an issue. In two places stuffing was missing and the fabric was caving in. I would not recommend this couch. Too many manufacturing issues for a custom made piece.

very comfortable
I purchased the cameron sofa in monologe cloud and it did take a little longer than expected to receive, it was worth the wait. I love the color, the fabric , and the couch is very comfortable and looks great.

Disappointed
We waited and looked for months to replace our 15 + year old sofa and love seat. The cushions finally gave out on them. We bought the Cameron and within 3 months of owning it the cushions gave out. They sag and don't hold their form. I asked for replacement cushions. It took longer to get the the replacement cushions than it did to get the custom ordered sofa. For the price I would not recommend this product. We will have to take them to a professional to change them out since the new cushions are HUGE and we don't want to rip the fabric getting them in. We love Crate and Barrel, but this was very disappointing.

Sags!
Our first nice furniture purchase after years of second-hand stuff, and this was so disappointing! Handsome lines, comfy seat, microfiber fabric is soft and handles spills impressively. But within a year the sofa had developed a pronounced sag in the middle. It soon grew worse, becoming uncomfortable as well as unsightly. With no kids or pets using it, and at this price, you would expect much better quality. Sadly, keep away from this one.

Just what I was looking for
I spend over a month looking for the perfect sofa and after visting several places this was THE ONE, I love the clean lines, the way it looks in the living room and the fact that it's firm and I'm not sinking on it every time I sit. Don't think it twice get it, it is beautiful!!

Practical and Beautiful
Two kids, a husband and a dog take a toll on my senses. And my sense of style. Crate and Barrel's Cameron Sofa stands up to their abuse - acrobatic jumping, milk spills, and sereptitious dog naps. Comfortable, cozy and easy to clean!

Good Choice
Purchased this and the arm chair several months ago and used one of their custom fabrics rather than the stock ones. Overall I like the sofa...it is deep enough without being too deep. I love the wide arms and sleek look. It is pretty comfortable but could be more comfortable, especially the back. It could have to do with the fabric that I chose. The one they recently put on it, a graphic color, with chunkier weave than what I chose I think would have worked better. Overall I am pleased.

sturdy smart looking couch
this couch gets jumped on by kids and animals-yet at the end of the day it looks just like new. The fabric is very durable and soft.

Looks good and sits well
Bought this sofa in monologue cloud--a blue/grey color that works well with taupe microsuede chairs. some problems with cushions which Crate and Barrel customer service is fixing quickly and with great service.

A wonderful sofa
I have owned this couch since I moved into my house two years ago. Drinks have been spilled, dogs have jumped on it, and many people have relaxed on my ivory colored Cameron. It holds up and still looks great. Sure the couch is more "broken in" than it was on the delivery date, but it's still in a very good condition.

Great Living Room Update
Purchased the 88" Cameron sofa in sesame September 2010 and have been quite happy with our purchase. We were searching for a more contempory, tight back sofa to replace our pillow backed, rolled arm couch when we moved into our new house. We love the clean, contemporary lines of this sofa and the shorter more compact arms offer a more contemporary look and help open up the living room by taking up less space, without sacrificing the number of guests we can seat. The sofa receives heavy wear and tear but is holding up well. The cushions do sink in and collapse quite a bit after each sitting and can feel a little hard during long bouts on the coach during afternoon naps or movie marathons. However, they do appear to spring back nicely, so far. Have some concern that the cushions may need to be replaced sooner than we would have expected for a sofa of this quality- time will tell.

Clean lines
I love the clean lines. It looks great in my space that marries modern and traditional. With pillows it could look either way. A great purchase.

Comfortable & attractive
I just got the couch in a stone color and the chair & ottoman in chocolate brown. They look great. I was looking for a loveseat too but wanted something a little longer, so the saleswoman suggested the apartment-sized sofa. It's perfect. The pieces have modern lines but still go well with other traditional pieces in the room.
If you want a tight-backed sofa, this is the way to go. The cushion dimensions are perfect for my height; you'll need to visit a store and sit on it to see if the dimensions fit your stature. As others have mentioned, the cushions are firm, but I have found them very comfortable for lounging as well as sitting. I can't address long-term durability as I just got the pieces, but I'm not worried. It's Crate & Barrel. If anything goes wrong, they always make it right. Don't forget to rotate your cushions though. That's true no matter where you buy your sofa.

Good as new
After purchasing the sofa and chair in 2004, my sofa started creaking when we sat down. Just before the holidays 2009, I thought it had developed a crack in the frame. Customer Service was great! After the technician examined it a few days later, he recommended it be shipped back to C&B so they could remove the springs to fix it. A few weeks later, they had picked up the sofa and delivered it all fixed. No questions asked. The sofa look like new and is just as comfortable now as it was they day we got it.
