Leather Sofa by NEXT

[youvegottobekidding]

What are the leather sofas from Next like? Do they wear well? DH and I have seen one we really like, have been looking for some time & came across this one one display in a store so we know that it's comfy. It's going to cost around £1300, which is a lot so I'm looking for feedback from anyone who has purchased sofas, particularly leather ones from Next. There was a fabric one we liked too, but with a pre-teen & an 8yr old we think leather is more practical!

Anyone?!

Don't buy next sofas is my advice!

Check what kind of leather they are using. I know it sounds weird but there's (apparently) a way of blending leather with a cheaper kind of material. I found this out when the leather on my leather dining chairs started to split, even though it hadn't had much wear and tear. I forget what the part leather/part something else material is called, but google will tell you.

My point is that the leather made in the way I have described does not last as long as 'pure' leather furnishings.

I can’t speak for the leather ones but my fabric sofa from Next was dreadful, the seams burst after only a few weeks. After a year it looked about 10 years old. Leather might be better though.

Thanks for the replies! As it turns out, we've decided to hold off buying a settee for now & make do, we can't justify spending £1300 on a settee when we aren't exactly sitting on the floor!

DWELL ones are dreadful. Mine in a state after 4 months!

Our next sofas sadly haven't worn well.... they are five years old and on their last legs already :(

I wouldn’t buy a next sofa either. Ours is 5 years old and it’s so tatty...no kids and fairly light usage as well. All the seat cushions have sunk badly and the fabric has gone bobbly. Avoid!!
