We bought our house just over four years ago and only had furniture for the upstairs because we were coming from two apartments. We purchased a couch and loveseat for the living room that were great to start out with, but after a little while, I could not wait to replace them. We realized that our house doesn’t get a ton of natural light, especially in the winter, so we are going to move our current set out and replace it with a sectional.
We’re also going to change the dark rug for a lighter, neutral color, and I’m crossing my fingers that I won’t be kicking myself for buying too light of a rug. I would love to have an ivory couch, but that’s not doable with Sprout allowed on the furniture. And I’ve been looking at navy couches, too, but I don’t think that’s going to brighten up the room as much as I want it to.
These are the two couches I’m considering. I know, they look so similar, but the styles are slightly different.
(The bottom one would actually be without the additional chaise piece.)
Which would you choose?
The top one looks airier with the higher and tapered feet. I agree with Kaitlyn- the second one looks more comfortable.
The second one looks comfier 🙂
I would pick the second one because of the cleaner more modern lines, but I would encourage keeping the chaise. We have one and it's pretty awesome.
I would love to keep the chaise, but we have an open living room/kitchen, so I think I'd be constantly tripping over it 🙁
I can't decide if that's a good thing (obvi for me) or a bad thing (someone likes to fall asleep on the couch watching late night TV)!
Hmm… good point. One more spot for our dog Sprout to lose his toys?
