I moved into a new apartment and need to get a new sectional. I have a La Z Boy Collins sofa that has actually help up very well over the past 6 years, but want a sectional as the space is large.

I went to the local furniture stores today: La Z Boy, Bassett, Stickley & Audi, Ethan Allen, and Raymor Flanagan. It was very overwhelming and most of these makers have “meh” or negative reviews, except Stickley carries Hancock Moore, Bernhardt, and a few other good brands. I liked the Bernhardt Germain, but the fabric wasn’t great and the floor model was the only way to get it under $6000. Hancock has a wonderful leather sofa for $3,800 supposedly marked down from $9000, but it wasn’t big enough. The Stickley custom sofas seemed ok, but likely out of our price range.

I just want a comfortable sectional under $6,000 that’ll last 5-10 years at least. I’m in Westchester County, NY and would like to be able to try a sectional and not buy blindly online. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
