    I think M & S is very expensive for sofas and you don't always get great qualit IMO for the amount that you pay.

    Try the big places like DFS etc, just look carefully before you buy. I have been looking on EBAY at new leather suites and they seem quite reasonable with good feedback from the sellers.

    What about this dark brown one at Argos - it is leather and at less than £175 - it seems a very keen price ?

    I notice they also have it in Cream at this price. They will send you a swatch of the leather so that you can see the exact colour.
    Your really can not beat a good bargain !!!

    I would recommend Argos too.
    You may walk and you may run
    You leave your footprints all around the sun
    And every time the storm and the soul wars come
    You just keep on walking

    I wouldn't recommend Habitat - simply because I bought from them years ago and the sofa cushions and back cushions got squashed down within couple of years and have lost their original shape and comfort.

    We bought a brown leather sofa from Argos some time ago. It's okay but the seat depth isn't great. if you're buying without seeing first check the measurements carefully. And don't buy cream leather, it gets so grubby!
