I mean, it's clearly designed like that but would irritate me no end to look at because i would look at it thinking it's not level! Beautiful colour though and the cushions look mega comfy.

MistyGreenAndBlue · 12/11/2022 18:01

Yep
Where are its back legs?

Pirrin · 12/11/2022 18:01

It looks like someone has chopped the back legs off, although clearly they haven't really. It would annoy me.

birdling · 12/11/2022 18:06

How do we vote? I think it's wonky, but I'm not sure if that is reasonable or unreasonable.
What do you think? Then I can vote 😄

threegoodthings · 12/11/2022 18:09

I think why doesn't it have any back legs

Flapjackquack · 12/11/2022 18:11

I’d say it’s probably meant to be like that but would change the legs.

HuggsBosom · 12/11/2022 18:21

I think we need to see it from other angles. Link pls

Sally090807 · 12/11/2022 18:24

The back legs don’t match with front, the back look modern, the front more traditional.

butterpuffed · 12/11/2022 18:25

It'd make me feel like I was in between sitting up and lying down, it doesn't look comfortable .

welshpolarbear · 12/11/2022 18:27

Is it this?

Typically it doesn't show it from any angle other than the front!

OmiOmy · 12/11/2022 18:31

I could not cope with it in my house. It looks too wonky.

I don't think I'd be able to get out of it normally. I'd probably have roll out of it.

DannyGary · 12/11/2022 18:31

Second thread I have seen today about the exact same sofa!

Yes, it looks wonky.

historygeek · 12/11/2022 18:31

I think it's meant to look like that... but in my house stuff would go under it and you'd struggle to get them out again. Dog chews, balls etc.

TheCurseOfBoris · 12/11/2022 18:36

I have a sofa like this (several years old, so not the same) and it's mega comfy. It's the sort you sink into and relax rather than sitting rigid bolt upright.

MrsMitford3 · 12/11/2022 18:41

I would hate that so much-if it is meant to be like that then it's not my cup of tea.

It looks broken to me 😂

TwoLeftSocksWithHoles · 12/11/2022 18:44

I think it's just taking a snooze..

My fiends a pouffe and said it's quite tiring being sat on all the time but it's a lot worse for sofas as they keep having their cushions plumped up without a word of warning.

Flapjackquack · 12/11/2022 18:51

I’ve just had a look on sofa.com who do a similar style and theirs are the same so it’s obviously just a style of sofa. Getting up would be a good core workout though.

MenaiMna · 12/11/2022 19:01

All the photos of that line on the website have much more substantial, if dull, back legs e.g. see armchair. I think someone in the showroom forgot to put the display model legs on!

I’ve had too much wine.

I’m guessing it’s the same poster as the last one was deleted due to there being a random woman on the sofa.

PriamFarrl · 12/11/2022 19:04

It does look wonky but I don’t think that’s a problem. I don’t look at my sofa from the side.

StridTheKiller · 12/11/2022 19:05

Looks like it came out of a skip.

Yep, me too!

mamabear715 · 12/11/2022 19:08

I think.. if you love it, @Igletpiglet get it.. it doesn't matter what we think! On the other hand, I'd suggest you're asking us because something about it is bugging you. In which case I'd say don't get it, it'd probably bug you forever!

LynneBenfield · 12/11/2022 19:10

It’s supposed to look like that, the back legs are shaped like that because they give more support and are sturdier to bear the brunt of the weight. The front ones are ornate because they are the ones you see.
