Debating between two sofas:

1) Thayer Coggin Flash (with with what Thayer calls "matrix webbing" construction)

2) Vanguard Lincoln Hill (which is supposedly 8 way hand-tied)

Is 8-way hand tied really superior to this new technique used by Thayer Coggin?

Like the styling for both couches, just want to make sure we're investing in the sofa that is likely to give us the longest use.
