Overwhelmed! 8 way hand tied or?? quality upholstered manufacturers?

[jackieO]

Just moved into a new house and replacing most of the furniture. We want quality and comfort in our upholstered pieces but doesn't have to be the best of the best. Based on research, 8 way hand tied appears to still be touted as the way to go for quality. We have been considering: Temple, Kincaid, Clayton Marcus, King Hickory. These pieces will be in a living area that will be used considerably with a Hancock Moore leather sectional that is in adjoining much used area. (we already own the HM)
We welcome input on these manufacturers as well as any others we should consider along with opinions/suggestions regarding the 8 way hand tied vs sinuous etc.

Bring it on!! Thanks!

8-Way suspension in a solid hardwood frame is the gold standard for furniture construction, such as what is on your Hancock and Moore sectional. Anything else is a shortcut.

King Hickory is fantastic. You can not go wrong. (8 way hand died, kiln dried wood frame, lovely cushion material and very nice leather selection).
