Where is it from?

We have spent between £0 and £1200 on sofas over the years and none have ever been quite right.

This is ours although we got a teal colour in the ‘lux felt’ fabric, which they don’t seem to do anymore (think that might be why it was reduced):

We bought a second hand DFS Sofa locally, jumbo cord, £80 earlier this year as an interim until we found something that we really wanted. It is THE most comfortable sofa I've ever had, everyone that sits on it comments on how comfortable it is.

We had visitors recently and gave up our bed for them, I slept on the sofa for a week and honestly it was as comfortable as my bed!

There's a few marks on it (cream coloured) but I cannot face getting another that won't be as comfortable!

Soda.com here too: only about 18 months in but very impressed so far: precious ones with John Lewis and not sure I’d use them for sofas again

Hi @CaptainWentworth , how is the Osaka sofa holding up? I’ve read some negative things about Bo Concept online, but was impressed by the sofa in store.

There’s a Heals sofa (Brunel) I also have my eye on. Bit torn as Heals have the reliability factor but the Osaka was lovely! I’d appreciate your review a few years down the line. Thanks

@ByChirpyPearlNewt I’m quite late responding (have name changed also!) so I don’t know if this is still useful, but yes we are still really happy with the bo concept sofa, so much so that we bought another one in a similar but slightly different style from there for the family room. The second one is getting much more of a battering from the kids but still looks great - we paid extra for the stain resistant fabric which I think must have helped.

The thing I like about them is they are very firm and supportive so don’t go saggy at all over time, which is more comfortable and also looks smarter. Of course some people want the more squishy Loaf style which does look cosy, but I couldnt be faffed with plumping sofa cushions all the time.
