Sturdy and inexpensive are not really comparable. You can have one or another, but not both. For the highest level of construction you want a solid maple or ash frame and only a handful of makers do that now. 98% of the industry is plywood with varying degrees of plywood and attachment methods with the better sofas being in the mid $ 2K range and up. Why bother with a sturdy frame when the fabric covering on a $ 1,500 unit will likely only last 7 to 8 years? At that price point you will likely get a low to mid-grade unit that will last about as long as the fabric covering. Then dispose of and get another one. Good luck.
Good advice and information. We will keep watch on fabrics, too. We get what we spend ( we are not buying at the Odd Lots and dollar stores etc. I have a grandson who would destroy cheap furniture).
Good Advice :o
