    Since you have hijacked someone else's old thread with what you say is a similar occurrence, I assume you too have a sofa from the Marvella range similar to the one the original poster complained about?

    On Sofology's website both the still pictures and the video show the black support legs.

  • No, it’s not the same sofa.  Have I done anything wrong by writing on this site.  Should I create a new post?
  • Recliners are usually made in two halves and bolted together. Have you tried leveling the sofas with the adjustable feet? Raising the outer feet front and back or lowering the inner feet will have the effect of closing in the gap at the centre.

    You'll have seen on the "Posting Etiquette" section of the Forum Rules https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/site/forum-faqs/  that it asks you not to bump old threads.  It's usually better to start your own thread rather than resurrecting one from a year ago - apart from anything, it make it easier to follow the salient points and means replies can be tailored to your particular question.

    Not wrong, as such, but you're more likely to get better responses if you start your own thread.

    I think possibly the answers were not those that were hoped for. 
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    A user can't delete a thread can they?

    And the site team can't just delete a thread because the OP asks them to delete it can they?

    I just looked and a user - well me - cannot simply delete their own thread.
    I tried on a recent thread and I can edit the title and OP but there is no option for deleting the thread.

    One would like to think that admin team didn't just delete on request.
