I'm shopping for a sectional, ideally in the 119 x 119 range, give or take. Doesn't have to be perfectly symmetrical.

I went to a couple of places ...

Bernie & Phyls - Older style (Did not interest me)

Bob's - Quality was very low (I'm interested getting as much out of this purchase, don't want to go thru this in a couple years again)

Macy's - Mix (Some things caught me eye, quality and who to deal with if there are issues concern me)

I did eyeball a couple of these, I'm wondering if any has any insight to these...

Pottery Barn, Pearce collection

I think the wedge really drew my attention and seemed better for the corner piece

I'd debating how functional/practical the bumper is. Or should I just get both side w/ arms. This will be in a right angle corner, so both sections will have a wall behind them.

Also, my understanding is these are foam wrapped in down. How durable/firm is that? And the maintenance? Will this compress significantly? I tested some out, it actually felt a lil too soft. But I'm used to just foam cushion.

Boston Interiors, Melrose collection

Again, should I get both end with arms. Again, these come foam wrapped in down. This one I have the option of no down. Again, same question in regards to durability/maintenance/firm

This is a store brand. Does anyone know who manufacturers these for Boston Interiors? I was heading down the path of McCreary Modern based on the description used for the Melrose. But I could be wrong. If it is McCreary, they don't seem to have a really good rep. This also seemed to be around the 17 seat height mark. I would probable swap out the feet (1 inch) to get it to 18 inch seat height.

Circle Furntiure, Cambrige Collection

This would be a corner and another sectional, so there would be arms on either end to get me the length.

This is another in house brand. Any idea who manufacturers this? And once again the foam wrapped in Down, in regards to frimness, durability and maintenance.

I've been perusing Houzz and I see a mix review of Rowe Furniture, I can't tell if they went thru a bad spell in terms of qualify and are back, or its still hit and miss with them.

I'm open to any other manufactures, and have started reviewing Bassett and Stickley options, but I'm open to any other suggestions.

Final question, these are generally coming by default in what they are saying is gray (Ash), but look to be a version of beige for me. I've got small ones, so I'm thinking in the darker gray, blue family. Can anyone share their color experience with kids.

Thanks for any insight.
