Great forum, lots of good advice!
My wife and I have owned a La-Z-Boy reclining sofa and loveseat (cloth) for 16 years...still in very good condition but we are no longer in love with the style and want to replace them something in leather. Surprisingly, even the material is in fine shape! We have discovered that La-Z-Boy quality is NOT what it was 16 years ago and are having to go higher in our budget to get the quality we want.
We did see the Omnia Brookfield in a Grade 2 top grain leather (100 %...sides and back) and a color that we liked a lot. Seemed very solid and well made, we can get both pieces for about $4k out the door. Also they will use firmer seat cushion material for no charge. We tried a different sofa with the firmer cushions and really preferred them.
It seems like you like the B-Y 912 a lot (it does look awesome) but were wondering how close we would be in price and if you can help us understand what advantage the B-Y might have over the Omnia...assumining that you are familiar with the Omnia enough to say.
The research continues...thanks in advance for your advice!
