Re: Your Way or City Sofa?
I think the City will be a better choice for you. 1) at 5' 3" it will fit you perfectly, while still being OK for your husband at 5' 10". 2) in a small space its not as deep overall and will be less likely to "take over" the room. 3) it will cost less in program leathers.
Back pitch on both can be controlled by how you position the back cushions onto the retaining velcro, you can move them about 5 degrees one way or the other to change the angle.
At 5' 3" I think the Your Way will be too deep for you to be comfortable in it quite honestly. Now, one other option is the City comes in two sizes. If you husband wants more room, you could order the piece he is going to use in the deeper size (9844 sofa vs 9840 sofa) for example.
H&M customer service ladies are terrific, but they are there to service the dealers - not retail customers. They are excellent at telling me when an item is going to be ready, leather stocks, if we can do a modification this way or that and what it will cost - but 90% of them do not know the product line as does a good dealer who works with the brand daily such as I do. Even though they work in the same building as the factory, they don't see the pieces very often and don't have good working knowledge of the differences between pieces other than what they can read on the company website - just like you can do. They are also trained to not say anything other than the "Party Line" to avoid contradicting what a dealer may tell a customer. Human nature says that by calling Hancock and Moore directly you will get to "the source" but the reality is your selling dealer in most cases has the better information that you are really seeking to know.
