Roche Bobois is the ultimate now and then. But, like everything, there are knock-offs. I am not suggesting all are sub-par (like the cheap Rolex bought on the street). Find the R-B sectional you like and compare the look with other manufacturers.

For instance, this is $1700.00

Thanks-what brand is that?

sushipup1 i'm very sorry if our posts offend you, and i can see that you flagged our answer on this post as spam. we are a houzz pro, just like many other companies and designers. if somebody is asking a question in regards to sofas or sectional, which is our specialty, why is it wrong for us to answer the question and offer our help and show pictures and links to get quotes? how is it different from a designer offering their advice and services? i fail to see how it's spam, we are just a small family business, trying to stay in business, in a world where we can't compete with multi-million dollar massproducing companies who make junk furniture in other countries, but pour all their money into flashy pictures and social media ad campaigns. we pour our money into quality furniture and therefore have to use FREE outlets to get the word out that we exist, and houzz is/used to be one of those outlets, until people start calling our comments spam and flag them :( makes me sad.

The Houzz forums are for discussions and are open to professional users and brands as well as non professional users.

If you run across content that you feel should be reviewed by our team, or that you consider spam, please flag them using the flagging mechanism rather than responding to them. (If there were many posts around saying only "spam" those would be rightfully flagged as spam themselves.) Once you flag something, you will not see it any longer, and our team will be able to review it without the thread getting off track / off topic about individual posts. Thanks.

There are many may businesses that post useful helpful advice here, but refrain from saying, "Come to my website and I'll sell you something".

Wow, if someone asks a question about brands of sectional sofas, and a sofa company responds, how is that spam?

I don't want to see businesses shilling their products here. Such posts, under the guise of "helpful advice" degrade the integrity and longstanding intent of these forums (and I've had many years of active forum participation). What's to stop these forums from becoming just one ad after another? Nobody wants that (except perhaps those who only participate in hopes of making a buck). Pros that offer their own products or services in response to a query have a vested and biased interest. It makes me sad that such things are even allowed here. And yes, I do flag this stuff as spam and will continue to do so.

There's a lot of poor and amateur advice here on this forum, and I'm in the business going on my 35th year now. I swing by to help out when I can just in the same way I help the lady next door change a flat tire on her car. I have never got a single order off of HOUZZ that I'm aware of. But this is the appreciation given for the professional expertise and experience which is FREE? Vested and Bias interest? <rolling eyes>. My wife says "Why do you even bother with doing that? That's the best use of your time?"

At least the lady whose tire I changed will say Thank You instead of telling me I'm out to sell her a brake job.

Thanks, Keeping Room, for all your advice. Well said.

@farmtrish Curious...did you end up going with a Roche Bobois or something else? We recently saw their 'Callisto' leather sofa and were impressed, but the price point seems somewhat inflated. From what I've been told, Gamma used to make their products and now, it's another different italian manufacturer. Just thought I'd see what you ended up deciding on.
