Every sofa at C&B has a different manufacturer. The Bayside is made by Lee but I think that's the only one. Other manufacturers are McCreary Modern and Mitchell Gold. Personally, I would just buy a Lee Industries sofa from Alan Ferguson's in NC. I paid about $1500 for my sofa plus delivery and it's the most comfortable sofa ever. There are some recent threads talking about Lee and AF, you may want to check them out.

I am the owner of a North Carolina furniture manufacturer. I am pretty sure that the Grade Q linen fabric you like is costing you several hundred dollars more than a good serviceable 100% cotton fabric would, but if that is the fabric you like then go for it. You are going to have this furniture in your home for 10 years or more and the last thing you want is to choose a cheaper substitute and then decide six months up the road that it just doesn't turn you on the way the more expensive fabric did. Regarding the age-old sinuous wire vs. 8 way hand-tied coil spring controversy -- Sinuous wire will last just as long (if not longer) than 8 way hand-tied and save you about $400 on the cost of the sofa. From a comfort standpoint, it takes a very sensitive rear end to tell the difference when you are sitting on a good quality cushion. Even the experts can't consistently distinguish between the two just from sitting on the sofa. Lee has a long reputation for making an excellent quality product at a good value. Of course you should actually try out the sofa before purchasing. A sofa that feels extremely comfortable to someone else may not be comfortable for you.

I have the Madison extension dining table and 5 (used to be 6) Madison chairs. The table is okay; the extensions slide out well but the top is veneer--not a good choice for us. It's about four years old and the veneer top has scratched/chipped. My next table will be solid oak, or at least not veneer. The Madison table is probably not for daily, regular use but that's how we use it. The chairs are HORRIBLE!!! I plan to buy restaurant quality chairs when I find my solid oak table :-) When my chairs first arrived, two were wobbly at the joints. CB had great customer service and replaced them immediately. However, after four years most of the chairs have become loose at the joints and, on the chair we no longer have, the leg snapped off completely when my SIL scooted back in it and that leg was unrepairable. My DH has reinforced most of the joints but it's not pretty. I don't care because I'm planning to replace the whole set. I think it was WAY overpriced for the lack of durability. Totally my style, though, and I've had a hard time finding a similar style in solid oak. My advice is that CB furniture is probably more for looks than durability despite how expensive it is.

I have purchased all types of Arhaus furniture and have found it to be durable. The sofa and ottomans are four years old and still look great. My dog piddled on one sofa seat and the slip cover/underlying pad prevented moisture from seeping through to the cushion. The dry cleaner was able to remove the stain and odor by actually washing the slipcover and it looks just the same as before. I would have been able to replace cushion, slipcover and underlying pad through Arhaus if I had needed to. I can't advise about the quality of the other brands you mentioned but I do recommend Arhaus.
