Type "home reserve" into the search box on the right side column of my blog (about halfway down) and it will pull up the posts about assembly and first impressions (which were favorable).<br />We still enjoy the chair, though because of where it is it doesn't get heavy use. It does get <i>some</i> use every day, though.Hollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11251615655963897793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4528239722280245740.post-22333850205346426952011-02-05T20:30:11.827-06:002011-02-05T20:30:11.827-06:00Did you ever get the chair to sample?

I would love to hear your experiences with one of their chairs now. It would be good to have an opinion that is current. And it sounds like this is the chance to do that.

We bought one of those and they are SO hard and uncomfortable! The couch was constantly looking messy and no one wanted to sit on it. For the same price you can get an ikea couch which is much much better and more comfy. It's a nice idea in theory but I'd tell anyone to stay away!Alissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01111131028124479894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4528239722280245740.post-70581157758388590212010-09-08T07:59:49.755-05:002010-09-08T07:59:49.755-05:00My mom bought 2 of these love seats two years ago....My mom bought 2 of these love seats two years ago. They were REALLY hard to put together (way harder than Ikea furniture) and SO uncomfortable! She kept them for a little while because she bought them to fill a space that wasn't used very often, but eventually they made their way to Goodwill. It seems like such a good idea, but I can't recommend this company in good conscious.
