Is this sofa gorgeous or horrid?

I am crazy about this sofa, but can't decide whether it is because it's a beautiful sofa, or because it is very different an un-beige, and therefore will hate it in 6 months!

[Cries in utter despair] Have just rung them to order it and it won't go through my front door!!!!!! I want to move house, now!! They said this one would but it's not beautiful, it's just pretty, the one I like is beautiful!!

Yes, you can get five of us and the cat on ours.
My raspberry is a cross between their dusty pink and their claret, I think.

Feelingbetterslowly · 22/05/2008 14:03

Oooooh yes I LOVE the prices on this site-that is the most expensive one too!! Bar leather!

we couldn't get it through the door either, we had to post it through the window

Feelingbetterslowly · 22/05/2008 14:04

How do you do that carrot? How how how? Are you a floor up? We are a floor up (shoulders shaking in big huge let down by width of sofa sobs)

ours was twice that and it had been reduced as some-one had altered it to be even deeper and the sofa workshop did it too much.

My feet don't touch the floor if I sit on it properly, it's like being 6 or something.

brimfull · 22/05/2008 14:07

god this is sofa porn

I wish I could change all my furniture now

Vivace · 22/05/2008 14:07

I got one that size into my old flat. The arms come off and you'll be surprised & delighted what two big strong experienced sofa men can do!

Feelingbetterslowly · 22/05/2008 14:08

Oh god I want to do that on my sofa! Keep thinking if I stomp my feet and wish hard enough my door will expand or something. Boo!

I'm trying to remember if we took the window out, I don't think we did. I wasn't here when it arrived. I think dh fitted it through on it's side, it's a sash window so the bottom is quite large when the sash is up.

that is a very nice sofa indeed - I'd have it !

Feelingbetterslowly · 22/05/2008 14:10

They said the arms wouldn't come off this one. Maybe they were lying because the other sofa that wouldn't fit isn't selling as well!?! Do you think they would think of a way to get it in if I just ordered it anyway and then slumped on the carpet in tears when it wouldn't fit through the door? Our windows are very big (although quite high from the ground!)
