Boxit sofas DFS- anyone got one?

[Ohshitiveturnedintomymother]

As above, I’m after feedback. Are they comfy or really hard? I can’t decide if they are too good to be true at £500 or will me really uncomfortable and a false economy

Anyone?

Brick hard. Ours is going back. I sit on the other baggy old sofa to avoid it. I need firm seating as I have back issues and need support but no, this is a bridge (or brick) too far. Also it is quite high, which may be great for some people, but no it's just not doing it.
It doesn't come in multiple boxes like the Snug and Swift ones either, just one massive box (DC have made it into a den ). It's not a 5 minute assembly either. I regret it sadly.

IKEA is our next stop £500 and washable covers great for toddlers who will wipe their noses on it

Thank you! Very damning review there. I did think they seemed too good to be true but was hoping they wouldn’t be. I’ll have a look at IKEA and similar. I need one that isn’t too deep as my living room is tiny and it’s a second sofa which I’m trying to squeeze into the space.

Reading what I've written seems a bit harsh...
It's a good sofa, doesn't wobble and isn't flimsy. The height would really suit some people and the firmness is also preference, it's good for spine health. I like sofas which have legs as I can clean underneath easily. It's just not for us sadly. A washable cover sofa would be better for our needs than fixed covers that can be hoovered beneath.

Boxit is the deepest and widest of all the self assembly sofas. Snug would be my choice but it's £££
