I like the new look. Actually it is a throwback to how stores used to be organized back in the day. When you weren't forced to go to ten different display areas to buy a mans white shirt. I hate the bargain basement cluttered look that became fashionable in the last couple of decades. I started to avoid places like Macy's and the like around the time they started cramming their stores with multiple departments for redundant items and piles of stuff on tiered platform that are always falling on the floor. All the mirrors and weird lighting and the pathways forcing you to go through the entire store are a huge turn-off for me. To me JCP went for a leaner, cleaner, easier to shop look. The everyday low pricing is so much better than how other stores jack their pricing and offer sales and fakey discounts. As for the quality I find it much better than the junk at Kohls. I only buy towels on sale at Kohls. Also seasonal items. That's about it.

I’ve read that people put an extra pillow in the back cushions. I’m assuming there is a zip pocket to add this? How are the bottom cushions holding up? Good quality? Scratch easily? Are they really slouchy looking? im not particularly a fan of the super slouchy look but I want leather for our dog hair maintenance problem and also for the fact is looks good with anything. I’m hoping this couch will last us a while, so I’m hoping I can have a solution for the slouchy back that will make it what I want. From what I’ve read it seems Article is built better. Joybird wasn‘t descriptive enough for me and no one seems to own the Eliot sectional in leather. So I’m thinking of going with Article as well. Thanks for your response! It helps a lot.

Horrible Sofa.. I bought the Sven Leather sofa and the back cusions got flat in 8 months, we put it in front of the TV qnd use it daily. ARTICLE sent me the back cusions replacements, but they leather color is lighter, faded and it seems very stiff (maybe storred incorrectly). I instered couple od dawn pillows in the back cusions which bought me around a year. Now it looks horrible and deformed. Now installing the replacements which would probaby last 8 motnhs as well, then will add the dawn pillows to buy another year. will end up getting 4 years out of this thing!! The side round pillows sagged after a year, they sell them for $180! My 12 years old Ikea leather sofa which I moved to the basement has 0 sag what sp ever! Very comfortable, no sag what so ever, the leather peeled off little at some placese, corners but thats about it (after 12 years). Do yourself a favor and buy from Ikea, they have some high end leather sofas, prices are close to Article and quality is much better!

I think a loveseat might make that room feel a bit crowded. How much seating do you really need for every day? Could you place a storage bench there with a throw pillow or two against the wall? This way you'd have the functional storage, but could also utilize the bench when you have extra guests. https://www.article.com/product/10991/culla-walnut-bench
