Beth, I'm so glad your family enjoys it so much. Our thought was to add the Lovesac for the grandkids, but is sounds like we may be fighting them for it..LOL. auntjen, I thought the same thing...I think I'll come up with another name for it when it comes to my home--just can't have my teenage granddaughter telling her boyfriend Grandma has a "Lovesac" at her house. paint chips, that's great - hope you've got it out of your head by now. klb9596, sounds like you like yours as much as Beth above likes theirs. So glad the covers are machine washable and I will measure well before deciding whether to get one or two....sounds like one would be plenty. Thanks all of you that responded...looks like our new home will have a "Lovesac" (with a new name)!!! Any ideas????

For relaxing with the family, I'd do a sectional with the lounge end at the door (as long as it leaves you a walkway to the door). So do the set up melissa posted, but without the second chair and sofa with a lounge at that end. But it depends on how your family uses a living space. We like to flop and crowd onto a sectional, others like to sit in individual spaces upright. I'd then do a matching ottoman instead of a coffee table with a big round tray on it to hold stuff that would otherwise go on the coffee table.

Stickley does a full range of sofas that can be customized however you like. You might like the 300 Series which is more minimalist although you can choose lots of arm designs in most ranges. https://www.stickley.com/product-category/living-room-furniture/sectionals-selectionals/

One word answer? No. With more words? I have one experience with this: I had a client who desperately wanted one, It was for a loft apartment above a garage, a fun place for the kids / adjunct to a large project they had on the lakeside across the street. . Do NOT be deceived by the ads. The put together alone, provided enough packing and cardboard to fill a landfill. Every side, back, footing for the cubes of nothing but foam . The arms, seats, backs, footing cubes- the ill tailored, horribly wrinkled slipcovers........a ridiculous jigsaw of components to create this oversized MOSH PIT. . Will they ever re configure this thing? I doubt it. Does it look great ? No, not if you know what a good looking , quality sectional or sofa looks like. Is it COMFY? Not to me, or to anyone who has sat upon decent/ good quality seating. My advice? Stay away. Far away.
