Sectional Sofa - Yes or No?
Comments (3)Thank you olychick. When I searched GW I did not get that thread. Glad to read many did not like the chaise feature as I was not planning on that. Hooks probably important on my HW floors. Hope to hear more about what people don't like about their sectional. Again, thank you! What footies are you using?...See MoreAdvice needed regarding sectional sofa dilemma
Comments (5)That is the only living space in the house. It's a townhouse we're renting for a year or two. We sacrificed on space to be close to the beach, which has been an awesome choice, until Irma, of course. We don't have any other "real" furniture for the living area, and we wanted to avoid purchasing anything until we bought a home, but when the old sofa had to go, we had to replace that. So we don't have any other seating, but it's really not a big deal. We don't have kids or family in the area, and we don't have a bunch of people over at one time, so the sectional is enough for our current needs. Is there anything in particular you would suggest for ottomans? I would like something that fits physically with the sofa to get something close to a chaise feel without having to close off the space permanently as you would with a chaise. Finding the right size is important too, as I dislike the really big ottomans for sectionals; they take up way too much space and prevent the use of a coffee table....See MoreSectional Sofa recommendations
Comments (12)There are multiple stores where I live (large metropolitan suburbs) where you can have a custom sectional made, for about what you'd pay at Room & Board. I got to choose the fabric, the welting, the exact size, the depth, the arm width and shape, the firmness of the cushion, poly wrap v. down wrap, the shape of the feet, the finish on the feet, and more. We got a 3-sided sectional (44" deep), approximately 148" , 168" on the back, and the 3rd side is a long chase with a huge ottoman. Yes, it's huge. As I recall, it was less than $5,000. Of course people sit on all 3 sides and talk. We also have other families over to watch the Superbowl, and things like that, and everyone loves the huge, deep sectional. We have a large family, and the kids have friends over, and that's our lifestyle. So while I understand the sofa + 2 chairs for flexible design, that really wouldn't work in our situation, and I bet there's lots others who are in our same situation. I think it's a personal decision, but it's a good idea to hear all these different points of view....See Moresectional sofa layout help
