Elenal here: I found a small leather sectional that met our needs in re style, quality, and size. It is by Custom Leather (a smallish company based in Arizona, but with a store here in Colorado). The sectional was custom sized to fit our room. I was looking for something with very simple lines (since the space is so small), so it wouldn't work in a French country setting. But they did have a few styles with more of a traditional styling. Leather quality is quite fine; I wouldn't say of the H&M level, but it was adequate for our needs and size (and, to a lesser extent, style) had to dominate our decision. Cost was 3900 for an 85 x 85" leather sectional. I saw one that was just a few inches longer on each end by American Leather (also with clean lines, not ultra comtemporary, but definitely with a squared off look) that was very nice at Crate and Barrel. But those few inches extra ruled it out for our very small room. I'm glad others have weighed in with some other brands to look at. Good luck. BTW, I saw on-line that Restoration Hardware is now stocking some smaller-sized sectionals in traditional looks--expensive, but quite nice looking, IMHO.

I know this is an old post but it still pops up when searching for buying furniture. I just got back from Furnitureland South. I basically knew what I wanted and went with the intention of getting best pricing and ordering. I have ordered furniture from FLS 3 times over past 20 years and had great experiences and received lower prices than I could find anywhere else. While researching buying furniture this time, Lexington Furniture Company located in Lexington, KY popped up with good reviews and comments. I had them price the same King Hickory sectional and ottoman and they were MUCH LOWER (including taxes and delivery). I also wanted Zimmerman Chairs and reached out to Zimmerman for local distributor and was given Cherry House Furniture Galleries in La Grange KY. Zimmerman said they would give me good prices and they did via submitting info via their website. The side chair, FLS price $1036 and Cherry House price $751.50. The arm chair, FLS price $1199 and Cherry House $870. When purchasing 6 side and 2 arm chairs, I am saving $2506.90 on the chairs. Anyone looking to purchase furniture and live anywhere in USA, try these 2 stores. I know for a fact the Lexington Furniture Company in Lexington, KY does sell to customers all over. FLS does have unbelievable resources on site and phenomenal showrooms, but pricing is not what it used to me based on my recent experience. Good luck furniture and shopping and buying.

If you look at the manufactures suggested by spolina (Baker's Milling Road Collection, Hancock And Moore, Bernhardt, Lexington Brands, Swaim) then you can definitely buy below MSRP. Check Boyles in NC and Lexington Furniture Company in Lexington, KY. I have never gotten a better price locally. The best price has always come from these two stores. You just need to find what you want by looking in your local store, then contact Boyles and Lexington for a quote. I have purchased a Kindel dining room set; Hancock & Moore sofa; chair, & ottoman; Hickory Chair sofa, chair & ottoman; EJ Victor chair; Hekman table; Baker bed; Hickory Chair nightstands; Century sofa; Stickley desk; Wildwood lamps; and a Bernhardt bed in the past 5 years. Only the Stickley desk was cheaper locally as I got it on a double sale. The price difference depends on the brand. Manufactures by law cannot dictate the 3rd party retailer's selling price. The way they get around the law is to make it clear that they will not supply a store that sells below a certain minimum. They claim doing so ensures the "value" of the product brand. One brand my tolerate a minimum of 25% below MSRP; another will tolerate 30% below MSRP. Stores like Bassett and Ethan Allen hold the line on their price. If they have a sale, you get the sale price. Otherwise, the price is the price. Bassett will probably not give you the quality and look you are after.

Clint Eastwood... Here is an example of Hickory Manor... http://www.hickorymanor.com/products/productList.php?category_id=2&location=minnesota Just realize that it is King Hickory with a different brand name. The specs are the exact same, and the brochures in the stores are exactly the same except they change the manufacturer name to Hickory Manor and also change the style names. Same product, same manufacturer, just re-branded so you can't compare different retailers as easily. Your region may have stores with King Hickory re-branded with another name as well. If you are looking at the KH Winston and feel it is too big (as we did), look at the KH Bentley. The footprint is smaller and we felt it was more comfortable because the depth was not as deep. Construction is the same, just a smaller footprint. Here are some links... King Hickory: Bentley... http://www.kinghickory.com/img/uploads/PopImage/42/image.pdf Winston... http://www.kinghickory.com/img/uploads/PopImage/55/image.pdf See this thread as well... [https://www.houzz.com/discussions/my-experience-with-smith-brothers-of-berne-in-dsvw-vd~2381070[(https://www.houzz.com/discussions/my-experience-with-smith-brothers-of-berne-in-dsvw-vd~2381070) Our local retailer was reluctant to drop the price as low as Lexington furniture. We negotiated for over an hour. They kept coming back with "we have a better warranty" or we use better delivery people etc. In the end they matched the $3,400 price when were going to walk out, but we had to pay tax. We felt the extra 6% was worth it to be able to deal with a local company. Still, far better than the $5,100 retail, or $4,400 sale price they offered. By the way you can order the KH Katherine with a one arm chase, so both you and your wife would be happy, see the below link... http://www.kinghickory.com/img/uploads/PopImage/50/image.pdf
