Just received my Rivet Cove loveseat in Dark Grey and am super pleased with it!
After previously having ordered a Rivet Hawthorne settee, I was hesitant to order furniture from Amazon again: it took three attempts over the span of a month for the correct model and color to be successfully delivered. Fortunately, my experience with the Rivet Cove went much more smoothly.
The loveseat was delivered within just three days by XPO. While the cardboard box was shredded upon arrival, the loveseat was in fine shape.
After the fact, it was announced that I had received "enhanced delivery." How do I know this? XPO left multiple voicemails and sent multiple emails informing me of the fact, some as soon as moments after delivery, while I was still unboxing the loveseat. I don't know what "enhanced delivery" means or what it entails because, aside from the slew of emails and calls, everything else about the process seemed the same as my prior deliveries that weren't "enhanced."
One quirk to be aware of with XPO: the company generates a "user re-scheduled delivery date" alert right before the scheduled delivery time. This can be a little disconcerting when you haven't re-scheduled anything. Just ignore it.
Assembly of the loveseat couldn’t be easier: just screw the legs (stored in a zippered compartment under the cushion) into the pilot holes bottom of the frame and you are good to go: no allen wrenches or screwdrivers needed. The loveseat is lightweight and easy to move around, yet feels sturdy and is super comfortable, even for my tall and lanky body.
The Dark Grey color is somewhat lighter and more muted than the “Caviar” color in which I ordered the Hawthorne settee, but it is a subdued neutral grey that should fit well in many decors. The fabric itself feels relatively coarse (if less "tweedy" and thick than that of the Rivet Hawthorne), which leads me to be optimistic that it should hold up well. (Oddly, the cardboard box bore a label from the Chinese manufacturer describing the color as Caviar... which it clearly is not.)
If you are on the fence about color choice for this line of furniture, just order a fabric swatch from the link at the top of the listing. Swatches, which used to be free, now cost 50 cents.
Subjectively, I think that the "Caviar" color of the Rivet Hawthorne line looks and feels nicer than the Dark Grey of the Rivet Cove line, but YMMV. Unfortunately, the two don't really go particularly well together.
One great thing about this loveseat is that it has a tiny visual footprint, so it is ideal for small rooms. The body of the loveseat is quite a bit lower than the top of the back cushions, so it seems to take up less space than it does. (My Rivet Hawthorne settee has similar length and width dimensions, but with a higher back it creates the subjective impression of a much larger piece of furniture.)
Overall, I couldn’t be happier with the Rivet Cove loveseat. It arrived quickly, looks great, and is comfortable.
What's not to like? The value quotient is debatable: $600 seems steep for a tiny piece of Made-in-China furniture.
That said, the Rivet Cove line is attractive and comfortable enough that I’m tempted to get the matching chair.
Update: Well, after a week or two, I did order the chair, as well. This smaller box was delivered by AMZL -- Amazon Logistics -- but scheduled shipping (where the carrier shows up in a specific 3 hour window) was not offered, so I wound up waiting around half a day for the chair. When I asked the deliverymen to let me check to make sure it was the right color/model before they left, they said "no way!" and virtually ran out the door. Fortunately, everything was ok with the chair, despite some tears in the outer box. Pro tip: never, ever sign anything that a delivery service hands you to sign before you've had a chance to inspect the piece of furniture and make sure it is actually what you ordered. Having had 4 pieces of furniture delivered lately, I have noticed that more often than not delivery folks want you to sign -- attesting that everything is ok and you accept receipt -- without even letting you glimpse the box, let alone look in it. As soon as you sign, any problem becomes YOUR problem; you have given up any leverage you have, and the deliverymen will beat a hasty retreat no matter how screwed up the order is. Stick to your guns and sign only when you are confident the furniture is ok.
Oops! Something went wrong.

Purchased the sofa and matching chair in the caramel color about 5 months ago for our home entry sitting room. I sit in this chair every morning and drink my coffee. My wife and or kids often get cozy with our pup on the sofa with a throw blanket and some down pillows. We’ve spent many hours on these and they’re holding up really well. Personally I wouldn’t purchase them as our main living room furniture for watching TV because they’re not plush, but they have a really nice shape and are firm for a space where you want a sharp tidy, yet also warm and inviting look. My dog always scratches the side of the chair when he wants to be pet, but there are no visible scratch marks which is a plus. The main surface areas that you touch have a slightly softer feel which is nice.

I love this chair! It was everything I had hoped for! I have it in my bedroom and sit in it to drink my morning tea. It is very comfortable, sturdy and visually appealing. It came quickly, and was easy to put together. All you have to do is screw in the legs. We have bought a lot of furniture, over the past year. I can honestly say this has been one of our very best values! Nice quality, great price.

My 2 previous sofas were from Crate & Barrel and West Elm but living with 3 pets (in particular a naughty cat), I wanted a more affordable option and found this. It's absolutely perfect! I love the color, the size is great for a small space but still long and cozy enough for me to stretch out and nap (I'm 5'6"). It's a bit firm but I totally dig it. I was concerned about "putting it together" but it came nicely boxed and the only thing I had to do was to unbox it and screw on the legs. It's literally the only piece of furniture in my living room but has totally inspired me to make additional purchases. The color is as described, will go with so many things and HOPEFULLY it will be a bit more pet proof. An absolutely find for the quality and price. HIGHLY recommend.

Il est très bien.
Confortable ! Un peu haut. Mais on peut toujours changer les pieds si ça ne va pas. Moi, cela me convient.
Vous voyez les photos après un an (avec un chat). Il est toujours protégé d’un plaid.
Mon chat fait un peu ses griffes en bas. Je passerai un petit coup de rasoir pour retirer les bouloches qu’il fait.
Les coutures sont assez apparentes. C’est le seul bémol que je peux trouver.
Il est également plaqué au mur, et je pense que c’est une bonne chose car je ne suis pas certaine qu’il tienne vraiment le coup sur la durée. S’il n’y avait rien pour le tenir. Il est quelque peu balottant. Peut-être faudrait-il revisser un peu les pieds.
Les pieds sont en bois, de bonne qualité.
Les accoudoirs (non protégés) sont encore nickels.
Vraiment, je suis ravie de mon achat.
Bref : je recommande !

Es sollte nicht zu teuer sein, da auch meine Stubentiger Zugang haben.
Bei Amazon bin ich auf diese kleine Couch gestoßen.
Das Design hat mich sofort angesprochen.
Heute wurde geliefert.
Sie ist schön verarbeitet und gut verpackt.
Dazu habe ich mir den passenden Hocker bestellt, da sie sonst zum lesen und lümmeln etwas klein wäre.
Beides ist mit einem Federkern, was mich sehr positiv überrascht hat für den Preis.
Die Polsterung ist schön straff.
Die Füße sind in einer guten Höhe und mein Saugroboter kommt problemlos darunter durch.
Nur der Stoff muss sich erst beweisen. Was aber keine Kritik an der Qualität ist, sondern mehr an meiner eigenen Auswahl, da es durch die gewebte Masche nicht die beste Wahl bei Katzen im Haushalt ist.
Rundum kann ich vom ersten Eindruck diese Möbel nur empfehlen.
Achtung ist bei den täglichen Preisschwankungen der Möbel.
Diese sind teils beachtlich.
