We are needing new sofas - had ours for 20 years.

Our room is an unusual shape and not huge. Largest sofa could be no longer than 2.2M.

We probably need leather as we have two terriers that have always been allowed on furniture so unlikely to be able to keep them off.

Id lovea chaise sofa (not corner per se) but not a absolute.

Budget about 2k at a push, however would prefer not to spend that much (this would be for two sofas - one 3 one two seater

I have this with the corner chaise and an armchair, I believe there is a regular 3 and 2 variant.

I've had it 2 years and it has worn beautifully and v comfortable

We had leather for 20 years hated it. Thought it would be great with three dogs. Now we have fabric with two throws one on the seat folded the other over the top of it all. We have a two seater for the dogs, a two seater recliner for moi and an armchair for his lordship. The throws go in the washing machine regularly and seem to work fine.

This is my sofa. We only bought it about a month ago, it's very comfortable and fits all the family (+ dog) and friends when they're over. What sort of budget do you have?

I have this in red, all covers are removable and washable including the base cover.
We have 3 dogs so perfect for keeping clean.

Leather is hideous, I had one and hated it, was always covered in a throw and cold in winter and stick in summer 😩

I have just ordered the Brixton sofa from Furniture Village to replace my knackered 18yo sofa. 13 week delivery but am v excited - have been visiting the shop for a sit-down-and-test session for weeks and have finally decided it's the one for me.

I hate fabric sofas ATM as mine is old and sticky, having been misused by 3 kids for so long. I know fabric covers are meant to be washable but it would take a machine the size of a small room to actually fit them in, so they're much harder to clean than leather.
