Leathe sofa...where to buy???

SmileyS_2

I am wondering if anyone can point us in the right direction as to where we can buy a nice decent quality leather sofa but at a reasonable price.I want a 2 and 3 seater and want to pay about £800
I don't really want argos and not sure about dfs 'half price 1 day sale' etc
many Thanks

My last sofas from DFS only lasted 4 years and cost £1200 ,absolute rubbish the cushions sunk.

viz

Barker and Stonehouse has a clearance section - on the tabs on the home page.

( then click on the nearest show room )
Depending where you live som eof the stores have a variety of leather sofas on clearance- they are in store ready to collect and i am sure you would be able to negotiate with manager.

Ikea do nice leather sofas - not sure of the price though.

Some sofa companies are teetering on the edge-don't forget to pay by credit card

Do not buy from DFS. We thought we were getting a good deal with their interest free but the sofa will not last as long as the interest free agreement.

We have had our sofa 6 months and on arrival the connectors didn't fit onto the corner part and had to be wedged in with cardboard by some bloke who came out from DFS ! The corner part squeaks and all the cushions are sinking. I am going to have to call them out to refill the cushions and sort the squeak from the frame. Very poor wear on a 2 grand sofa in 6 months. Never ever had a new sofa before, always had second hand from friends/family - should have stuck with that.

Buy the very best you can afford but do not buy from DFS and be drawn in by the year round half price sales they appear to have or the interest free deals.

We saw the Ikea sofas after we ordered ours from DFS and were kicking ourselves as they were better prices and looked lovely. Can't remember the prices either but better than DFS I'm sure, try the Ikea website. We could have got a much nicer one for half the price and they don't try to flog you a really expensive leather care kit for 200 quid which is a few sachets in a box like DFS. Don't the Ikea sofas come with a guarantee for so many years against faults, etc?

There are some nice ones in Land of Leather at the mo, ours is 5 years old from there and still looks good.

I would pay with a credit card though, just for some protection in this current climate.
