Where can I find a lovely comfy armchair?

[Reastie]

Any ideas where I can look? Would like to try it before buying so I presume big brand recommendations. We want a super comfy yet small one.

No advice but I've been looking at Sofa.com & Loaf. They're almost the same price as a sofa though.

I saw someone mention sofa.com on here and now I really want one of their sofas, chair and footstool. It is a lot of money though but so comfy. We managed to be near bath so popped in to check it out in their shop. Definitely lovely chairs and sofas. The whistler is the one we want and you sink right into it.

Just looked at sofa.com . They look really nice but there isn't a store near us and I don't want to spend that much without trying it out for comfort first. Loaf equally aren't near us.

We're looking at Laura Ashley at the week end through lack of other ideas.

Laura Ashley snuggle chairs are really comfortable

What's your budget?

Multiyork are great, but only in the sale! John Lewis have some lovely stuff in their 'croft' collection.

John Lewis is in our visit list too, but I went there on Monday and the only one I found I sunk right into was £1600 which is way above budget. Dh has classed our budget as 'a few hundred' .

OK, that rules multiyork and Loaf out. Made?

If your budget is only a few hundred then ikea might be best. They had some really nice armchairs last time I was in.

I bought one from sofa sofa and it's really comfy.
I also got one last week from Costco. It's light brown and really comfy. It was only £179. So a bargain too (They have it on line )

Cost co sell furniture? Ohh, I didn't realise. Maybe we should rejoin.

I'm opting a few hundred will go to £500 which will mean Laura Ashley is within one chairs in their current sale.

I looked online at IKEA but didn't like any of them in the pictures, but maybe they'll be better IRL?

You can order from Costco on-line and you don't need to be a member. They charge non members 5% more.

Was going to suggest the ikea ektorp armchair as it's so comfy

Uggmum - can you post a link to the Costco chair please? I can only see ones for £500+ on their website. Thanks.

Thing about the ektorp (which does look amazingly comfy) is its just too big :(

Have you looked at the ektorp jennylund? It's smaller than an ektorp. The benefit of ikea is that lots of places do custom slip covers for them.

I saw that one dolores, but thought it didn't look that comfy. Have you tried it?

Gah, now I'm not sure where to look! I asked dh for more of a definitive budget and he said less than £1k. Problem is all the sofa shops are in different directions. I could go to IKEA, or go to John Lewis and Laura Ashley, or go to sofa workshop or go to sofas and stuff or go to home sense, marks and spencer, and John Lewis.....

we had jennylund chairs ..not the most comfy but I think it was cos i like to tuck my feet under me and there is no room in a jennylund..unless you're tiny...I am5'4"

Here is the link to the chair. m.costco.co.uk/view/p/ladera-accent-chair-in-brown-fabric-183728

There's one I like the look of at dunelm for £200 but not tried it yet.

Love the Parker knoll one I got on eBay.

It's great quality. The seat is sprung.

That's an amazing value chair ugg but alas not the right style for the room.

Dh has now decided we shouldn't get a chair , after it was his idea to want one . Thanks for all the help, everything has been not d in the hope we get one soon.
