    Default Newbie looking for a cat and dog resistant sofa

    Hi, all.

    I just joined the forum in hopes of finding the perfect sofa to slouch in while watching TV or for taking an afternoon nap. Lots of great info here, thanks for the resource.

    I am studying the Hancock and Moore leather sofas, trying to figure out what style will look best in our small living room next to ancient country pine furniture. I sat in some yesterday but none had enough seat depth.

    Here is a pic of one of the pine pieces:



    We also have a Stickley Mission Bow arm chair, in Cherrywood that we will recover. Here's a pic from the Stickley website:



    The floors are white oak.

    No carpets or drapes to worry about, these are going to be replaced.

    Perhaps the H&M 9503 Kodiak, that's always a winner for comfort in a traditional setting....

    Thanks, I'm hoping to find something with an inside width of 72" or more so I can nap on it. I am 5'10".

    Is the "inside depth" the seating depth---from the front of the back cushion to the edge of the seat cushion? Or is it the depth of the frame?

    I sat on a Mitchell Gold +Bob Williams 87" London sofa the other day, very comfy---I think the 26" seating depth was the reason.

    I loved the sofa but worry about its durability.

    It should be durable enough - keep the leather clean and conditioned and out of direct sunlight, you're good to go.
