The wood needs to be refinished and the couch reupholstered, but the bones are good - and it is usable as is. (Oh, and there is 1 more large back cushion, it just isn't in the photo!) Initially I had thought about painting it but decided against it - so there is paint on the back of the couch and can only be used against a wall, or reupholstered (or used with a cover). We will put it outside for the day of pickup. Quick pickup appreciated. Near UVic on McKenzie.
