I lastly bought a Couch!
Hey, so I bought a couch. It only took five or six 15 years.
I feel like I’ve been speaking about wanting a new couch for an inordinate amount of time (I assumption I have furniture commitment issues), however I lastly went there, as well as it shown up last Saturday.
REKLAMA
I understand it’s just a thing, however that thing is gloriously comfortable. The second the shipment dudes peace’d out, I plunked down on it for five minutes, however those five minutes spiraled into six hours as well as a full season of Girls.
Sh*t, man, that couch is comfortable.
It’s the PB comfort Slipcovered 3-piece L-shaped sectional with English arms from Pottery Barn, as well as obviously those English arms are a THING. I didn’t understand they were a thing up until I ordered the couch two months ago, as well as speaking of the ordering, there’s a whole story to that, however first, what are English arms?

Well, in situation you’re as similarly house decor-challenged as I am, English arms are somewhat curved, as well as I assumption they have a more traditional vibe than square arms… who knew?!
It took took me a long time to recognize that what I desired was a slipcovered couch, however that’s not the primary reason I bought it. I bought it since the cost was crazy reduced.
It was during a sale about two months ago, as well as I don’t understand if this specific fabric, Sunbrella performance Herringbone in Tweed Gray, was being discontinued, or if there was some type of stock error, however for some reason this specific style was only $795, while it’s listed on the Pottery Barn website right now for $5,945 (!).
Even at the reduced price, I still didn’t want to jump in without seeing the material in person, so I went to the nearest Pottery Barn store as well as ended up ordering with the assist of a sales partner named Tatina, who stated that in all the time she’s worked there, she’d never seen a piece of full-size furniture at that price, as well as basically she was just like, “Karen, you have to get this couch. You can’t even buy a chair from Pottery Barn for that price.”
Sunbrella fabric
I discovered about Sunbrella right here in the MBB comments! somebody mentioned that it’s supposed to be fantastic for households with youngsters as well as pets since it’s simple to clean, doesn’t snag under pet claws, as well as laundries up well (I likewise thought about microfiber). as well as FYI, it’s not to special to Pottery Barn. A great deal of furniture lines offer it as an option.
The very first time I saw the herringbone print in the store, I wasn’t crazy about it, since I believed it may be type of dizzying on a big couch as well as method as well busy, however the couch was such a great offer that I took the plunge anyway. I’m happy I did since I like the print now.
It’s only been a couple days, however Tabs traipsed around it last weekend, as well as I’ve yet to see a snag (knocks on wood). Time will tell exactly how well it wears, however so far, so good.
Why a slipcovered couch?
I’m presuming that Connor as well as her buddies will trash this couch over the next few years, as well as perhaps someday down the line I can buy new slipcovers. You can replace the slips when they get beat up! Plus, you can eliminate them to laundry at house when they get janky, as well as there are even replacement pillows offered (like I said, I have no hint about furniture buying) for when they get lumpy as well as autumn apart. Some third-party upholstery locations can likewise make custom cushions. I’ll most likely go that path in a few years, since my previous couch pillows saw their finest days A long time ago.
What do you need/want your couch for?
I mean, of program you want to get a couch in your budget plan that looks quite to your eye, however it likewise assisted me to believe about what I wished to utilize the area for. Sectionals are truly great for laid-back hanging out, like for watching TV as well as playing games, whereas single standalone couches are usually sleeker as well as more formal, making them a great option for formal entertaining.
REKLAMA
Jéj! It was long overdue, however I’m loving the new couch. I look ahead to many movie nights, books as well as cuddles. say thanks to you for assisting me to lastly take the plunge.
