Perfect sofa, but its a Lane, Quality questions
Comments (3)The furniture repair guy was here this afternoon to fix my sectional. He opened it up and I was surprised to see how poorly made my Lane sectional is. The main support rail, which was wood, had cracked at a knot. The support that were attached to it were just stapled in--heck, everything is just stapled instead of screwed-- and the staples were either all pulled out or were pulling away. The repair guy fixed the broken support plus added screws and metal agle braces everywhere he could, so it is now better than new. He said he couldn't understand why Lane didn't use screws and metal braces in the first place because they have to pay for the repairs. He was not impressed with the quality of Lane upholstered furniture, but said it was about the same quality as other brands in that price range. It looked like the main support piece might have been hardwood, but the sides of the sofa were either particle board or MDF and the bracing was all pine or other soft wood and, as I said earlier, all the bracing and internal supports were stapled together instead of screwed together and all of the supports seemed to be pulling apart--but maybe that was because of the extra stress caused by the broken main support. I just wish that he could have taken apart the other piece of the sectional and reinforced it like he did the broken section....See MorePlease help me find the perfect sofa

Comments (84)UPDATE I just received this Fornasetti pillow from Etsy -- it's an outdoor pillow and I intended for use on our deck. However, I kind of like it in my office. What do you think? Perhaps it can live here during the off season....See MoreWhat is the perfect sofa and rug for this room?
Comments (24)Revisiting the first pic I posted w/green sofa that you liked - just to show the neutral rug and general decor/ setup. So as I mentioned above - definitely an option to go neutral and simple w/rug, and bring additional texture and/or color in with a couple of pillows, a plant, etc. It works. You don’t have to do much. The sofa is already fabulous.. You could keep it very simple, or go with more color, etc. https://www.chairish.com/product/1549819/fortuny-aqua-silk-down-filled-pillow?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIndG8-Mrr6gIVg4nICh3fyAoUEAQYDCABEgI4J_D_BwE https://www.cb2.com/18x12-bia-tassel-pesto-velvet-pillow-with-feather-down-insert/s671825?localedetail=US https://www.chairish.com/product/2019184/japanese-silk-chuya-obi-lumbar-pillow-cover...See More- 11 years ago
