I strongly urge consumers to stay away from Crate and Barrel outlet stores. I spent over $2k on one couch which seemed to be in perfect condition and was a great deal compared to what it would have cost if I had purchased it in store (based on full description provided by store employees on model and fabric). Worst experience as the upgraded, stain resistant fabric along with the stain removing directions provided by the company on this model were so wrong and within a couple months I have nothing but water stains all over my whitish sofa. I followed everything exactly. The company takes no responsibility for selling me a $2K couch that, although came from an outlet with as is, was still $2K based on these features. I wouldn't pay $2K if it didn't have these features which were part of the sell to me. What a waste. The couch is not worth $5 at this point. Save yourself time and headache and know that just because it seems like a good deal and that you can inspect it all you want and do all the research , it means absolutely nothing. Will never shop with C&B - outlet or not - ever again. They owe me at least a professional cleaning but choose to simply say that I signed a waiver for the outlet so who cares if we sold you junk!!!!

Crate & Barrel must have a deal with Lee, they make a minor tweak to the sofa or chair so the name of the piece can change. That way it's harder for customers to comparison shop. You have to ask which pieces are made by Lee, C&B doesn't mention it on the tag. What I did was print the sofas & chairs I liked on Lee's website and brought that with me to C&R. Then I matched up as best I could to what they had on the floor. What you're basically trying to do is find a comperable sofa at C&B that has the same depth, length, height, etc of the one you like on Lee's website. That should give you a pretty good idea what the one you order will be like. I found all of Lee's sofas to be too shallow in the seat except for one large sectional (101"?) that was so long it wouldn't fit in my living room. Have you seen the Baldwin sectional sofa at Macys? It's slipcovered, has lots of options for building the sectional, is made in the USA by a quality company, and looks like a Lee sofa. That's the one I ended up buying after none of the Lee or C&B sofas met all my criteria. Another forum member has this sofa, she bought hers from another store so the company that makes it offers it through different retailers. She loves her sofa too. Something to consider if you're in the market for a slipcovered sofa and haven't found exactly what you want. You don't say where in CA you live so Macys might not work for you either but it can't hurt to mention it. There's not a lot of slipcovered furniture out there.

Kristin, like you my preference for rugs is 100 percent wool. Whenever I have a question or need a slap upside the head, I check the rugchick blog. She has these posts about viscose, https://rugchick.com/2018/02/26/viscose-bamboo-silk-banana-silk-art-silk-what-you-need-to-know/ https://rugchick.com/?s=viscose We just moved into our new house and I was reminded how wonderful 100 percent wool rugs are. Our old house had crummy wall-to-wall carpets (selected quickly and thoughtlessly by my husband before we met) that did not like layering -- my Persian and Oriental rugs would always buckle -- so all of my rugs and then the ones I inherited from my late parents have been in storage for 8-25 years, variously in an unheated garage and an unheated storage container in western Canada. They all held up beautifully, and just needed a good beating outside and then a vacuuming. What size rug are you looking for?

We purchased the large Regatta outdoor dining table in gray wash last summer, and there are now some areas on the tabletop in which the gray wash color is worn/chipped off (at the spot that opens to extend the table). The color underneath is a tan natural wood color. We reached out to Crate & Barrel hoping they sold a touch-up kit for the gray wash color (which definitely seems more like a paint and less like a stain) which they do not. We’re very disappointed and will next check with the folks at our hardware store to see if they have any advice. Just keep in mind in case you purchased the extendable table - we have taken good care of the table, including putting it inside in the winter.
