Well, we did some reconnaissance shopping today and sat on every sectional we could find at Safavieh, Macy's, Crate and Barrel, Bassett and Stickley Audi. We really loved the Taylor Made series by Taylor King and Cornerstone by Century, but the prices are a bit painful - I haven't gotten estimates yet but looking at the prices of the floor models we're probably looking at closer to $8-9K in these brands. Lee Essentials and Stickley's 7000 series were also nice and a bit more moderately priced - I think we could stay under $5K with these, and the construction is similar quality to TK and Century from what I could tell. We also found a budget choice at Macy's in case we are too chicken to pull the trigger on the more expensive brands.

Anyway, any info or positives/negatives for Lee Essentials, Stickley 7000, Taylor Made or Century Cornerstone would be greatly appreciated!

biondanonime I'm also looking at buying a sectional. Which manufacturer did you go with and why?

Look for Smith Brothers - very well made and customizable

I, too, have a 5 year old lazy boy and am happy with it. My last sofa was also a lazy boy.

Look, too, at Room and Board. Made in USA and customizable.

biondanonima Seems that you got a great deal, please post the phone number or website to Lexington Furniture. I tried searching online bud didn't find an stores in the area. I'm thinking of purchasing either the Vanguard Nicholas or the Envision. Thanks. BTW, your sectional looks fabulous.

Lexfurniture.com is the website. They were incredibly helpful with quotes for various brands and their prices couldn't be beat!

biondanonima Thanks, I'm going to give them a call.

biondanonima I'd love to know how the Vanguard is holding up 4 years later.

Biondanonima I’m also interested in how the Vanguard Envision has held up!
