DF had asked me help her choose a colour as she thinks they're "fab" I can't get my head around them!

They are offensive

I love them. They keep popping up on my FB feed. I do worry that they'd wear and look a bit shabby (and not in a good way) rather quickly, though.

Love the colours, hate the pattern. They are the sponsors for Gogglebox and I have to flinch or fast forward through the advert because I don't understand why they're pushing them so hard!

I think the shape of them is good, it's the cable knit jumper material I don't really like, and I think the biscuit colour isn't very good, and I'm a fan of beige 😂

I like them but I wouldn't buy them as they look awful to clean. We have postbox red sofas, makes a plain room look decorated.

@chickpeaburger Df is "dear friend", no?

And on that note, OP, you'd better hope your Df isn't on mumsnet! Otherwise she's going to be pretty hurt... Blush

Ah sorry OP, just read that you'd send her a link to the thread anyway...I stand corrected!! Good that you can be honest with each other like that I guess Grin

I think they are dreadful and would date very quickly, no, they already look dated.

Looked lovely

The tangerine one is gorgeous

Just shows how tastes differ, I think the tangerine one is just awful. Like something out an easy jet lounge. Hmm

Is it weird that I can't tell whether I love or hate them? Confused

I like the shape and the colour but not the knitted effect.

I love the tangerine one too. Impractical for us as we have a dog.

Cool in a teen's den.

I think they'd look nice in the right setting... I'd put them in my conservatory. But don't think the high arms look comfortable

It'd look fun in an enormous hall or lobby but hideously impractical.
What is it about mass market sofas which is so wrong? I'm no design purist, I don't wander around in a permanent state of offence, but I never see an advert sofa that doesn't make my eyes bleed.

Could be nice in the right room

Rather faux retro nostalgic

Don't let her get the biscuit one: something as outre as this has to be in a bold colour

I like them. My sofas are purple.

The colours are OK but I really don't like the quilted loo roll/nana's acrylic knitwear effect.

They aren't my cup of tea but I can appreciate how in certain homes they'd look good.
