Corner sofa

Would like a corner sofa and happy(ish) to spend in the region of a grand. Any suggestions? Found a nice one in John Lewis but didn't like any of the fabrics. Not convinced by Ikea options. Maybe one in Next. Any other suggestions?

How about M&S? NOt sure if they do corner ones, but we've had 2 sofa's from there and they're great.

i'm considering buying this

Only thing that puts me off is that the fabric covers are not removable. I have a swatch of the fabric which i covered in toothpaste and yoghurt (to emulate a normal day in my house) and it all seemed to come off easily.

Hmmm...have just found this place in Uxbridge so thinking of going to have a look there. Seems to be tons cheaper and I'd be quite happy to build a sofa. Not having much luck so far - everything's been too expensive or not haven't liked the fabrics.

I had seem that company Boboo, they also sell on ebay. I'd be interested to hear what you think of them in real life.

My preference would be for something with a proper corner bit rather than a chaise (worried about future flopping!), but that one has made it on to my shortlist!

What about this one from Dwell dwell.co.uk/105076/Oslo-reversible-corner-sofa-grey

Apologies if the link doesn't work as haven't tried to do this before.

we have a chaise end sofa and have had it for five years (it's from John Lewis) and it's very solidly built and showing no signs of flopping. Sofa workshop are similarly solidly built (wish I could afford them!) so should really last too.

I love the Dwell one! But sadly I can see my twins crawling all over it with their snotty little noses and grubby little hands and ruining it.

I must start liking leather or will have to give my children away....
