Re: Advice on New Leather Sofa - 2 Kids and A Dog In The Equation
Probably your best bet is to spend some time reading here on the forum as to what constitutes a well-made sofa. There are hundreds of posts here, may take a bit of time to go through them all.
Avoid Costco and all the "Mall" furniture stores.
Best leather sofa you can buy today is Hancock and Moore, they build to the highest standards in the things you can't see - frame, suspension, coils, cores. In the Just in Time program, there are a few sofas that will come close to your budget, they will exceed it somewhat by the time you factor in shipping, etc. Bradington Young also makes a good sofa at about 25% less than H&M, however the build features will be 25% less as well. Still, way better than the typical product you will see at many stores such as Ashley, La-z-boy, Bob's etc...
All leather can be damaged by long term exposure to water or fluids. If there is a spill or accident it needs to be blotted up quickly so as not to saturate the hides.
