Thanks, but the doggies are not a worry. Now we're narrowed down to Dream or Portfolio Claret. Thoughts?
If you have the sample leathers, you'd probably know better because I don't have samples of these colors - but the Dream looks more burgundy/wine in tone and the Portfolio is a lot brighter. In such a large piece, would you rather have a splash of bright red or slightly darker brick/wine? The grain on those two looks similar from the online pics I can see, but that doesn't really say much compared to real life! If you love the bright red color on the stock photo of the Sundance (http://www.hancockandmoore.com/produ...productid=1761), go for it! I think it's fun and red is always classic.
Personal opinion, I like the feet on the pic linked above. I think the shape complements the curves on the sofa well.

The Portfolio Claret offers the benefit of being in the Town and Country program, and there are a lot of opportunities to see that leather on the Sundance, both in person and in pictures. It is often stocked by dealers.
Good morning Duane,
Now you're keeping my hours! We have decided to take your advise and order the Portfolio Claret in the Sundance--we will also go with the legs you suggested. I do want an oil rubbed bronze nail head. Can I make an appointment to speak with you today by phone?
I had the pleasure of speaking with Duane a few hours ago and ordered the Sundance sofa. His depth of knowledge, outgoing personality and explanations on every aspect of purchasing the sofa, from leather types to nail heads to stain color on the legs. Wow, what a nice way to do business. I think he might have spoiled me.
We ended up with the 4716 Sundance in Portfolio Claret with R & S nailheads and mahogany distressed legs. It should be beautiful. I have the leather samples so please PM me.

Friday, May 31st is our scheduled delivery date. Can't wait too see how the Sundance came out!
Hi Sheriink, I'm about to order Sundance in Portfolio Claret too... DH is still not 100% convinced about choosing reds over browns for our family room but I think on the Sundance the Claret really looks unique... If you received yours, would you please be so kind and share some photos? I was also wondering which cores you ordered and how do you like them? I'm struggling between Standard and Ultra Down... Thank you in advance!
