I am not looking for cheap, or expensive.
I hear of Flexsteel Lattitude being made in China.
What other makes would be in the price of 1800. for the sofa.
I don't need anything that will last 30 yrs, my wife likes new stuff every 10-12 yrs anyway!!!

Flexsteel Lattitude series IS 100% made in China. The first American to look at it is the dealer who unpacks it from the Chinese cardboard and all the little silica-gel 'do not eat' packets fall out from the piece.Quote:

Flexsteel motion sofas are "Joe The Plumber" pieces. They're sturdy, strong, and durable. They are not going to win any awards for fine tailoring or the Art of Upholstery. However, they use high quality spring steel for support, decent cushions and good mechanisms. I think you can reasonably expect 10 years from one and they should be in your price range.
It won't pay to price shop Flexsteel out of your local area. They ship the goods on the Flexsteel truck and will not ship into another dealers territory on a drop ship. To reship it means a double dip on freight and most likely will negate any savings.
Do you rate Flexsteel above Palliser, Omnia, and Klaussner?Quote:
