Option 1 - Ikea Ektorp; MSRP $399
By far the cheapest option. I've never had Ikea furniture, so I'm skeptical of the quality. But I read this post about how great white sofas are if you have a young family, and how nice it is to be able to wash the covers too. To be honest, a white couch is SOOOO scary to me. And I don't really know how often I would actually wash the covers.
Option 2 - Crate & Barrel Lounge 93" Sofa; MSRP $1,999 (on sale now for $1,699)
This couch looks CRAZY comfortable! And the reviews are awesome! I think I would add the ottomans too.
Option 3 - Crate & Barrel Axis II Sofa; MSRP $1,999 (on sale now for $1,699)
This one also has great reviews and looks classic. It doesn't look quite as comfy as the Lounge above. We would also pick a darker fabric than the one shown below.
Do you have any comfy couch recommendations we should check out?
You want a comfy couch? Go to Restoration Hardware and try out the down filled couches... If only they weren't like $5k.... LOL!
ReplyDeleteI'm super picky too with couches. We are going with a Broyhill sectional (Ethan) in the family room. I'm torn on the loft and the formal so I'm trying to figure that out now.
Love the Crate & Barrel sectionals. Pottery Barn had a lot of good choices too. Be careful with Ikea though cause they tend to break down faster. If the couch is going to get heavy usage I always say it's better to go with one that is built a little better.
Well... I wrote this post before we went to check out the couches at Crate & Barrel. I liked them, but hubby didn't like how deep the seating was, so I think all of the couches I have listed here are scratched. I wasn't crazy about the Ikea option, so I doubt we'll go that way... I just don't think I'll want to wash the covers that much. Back to square 1!
DeleteKeep me posted on what you pick out - I need some ideas. We need to go by Ethan Allen and Lazy Boy too to see what they have. Soooooooooo many choices!
