Pottery Barn Sofa?

[Deleted]

We are pretty close to ordering the Cameron sofa in washed linen and the Thatcher chair in cognac.

I've read mixed reviews online - it seems like people either love or hate PB furniture.

Looking for any input/personal experience.

We bought a PB comfort slipcovered sofa earlier this year - it arrived in April. It's been great so far with minimal use - meaning we only sit on it a few hours each night. We have no kids or pets, so I can't speak to how it holds up against that kind of use.

Rowe makes a lot of Pottery Barn's furniture. If you can find a furniture store who sells that, it's nearly identical for quite a bit less price-wise.

We have the Cameron in the sofa + chaise in microfiber that we've had a little over a month now so I can't speak to wear. I can say my cat just vomited on it 2 days ago and while I'm battling a lingering odor issue, it didn't stain at all so that was nice. I'm not sure how well the back cushions are going to stand over the time, especially considering when my husband is being oafish and flopping on them like throw pillows. We love it though and so does the cat.

We went with the Buchanen in a "B" grade poly "performance canvas". They said it was best for spills (points to 2 year old DS) and is very easy to spot treat. He ran a BLACK crayon on there and a little water+magic eraser took it right out.

It's American made in NC and we really wanted to spend our $$$ on local quality.

We used the CC and got a $100 gift certificate back for the purchase. We just bought, this weekend, monogrammed sheets and a picture frame to go on either side of the couch. :Y:

That's good to know about the performance canvas! We bought the slip covered sofa so we could take it off and wash if needed (planning for future little fingers and messes). Plus I liked that if needed, I could just get a new cover made.

I also think that you can buy replacement cushions etc at a later time if you had to. I liked that aspect as well.

Thanks for the input! There is a sale this weekend with everything 25% off, so we went back tonight and ordered the Cameron sofa and armchair in cotton/linen and the Thatcher wing back chair in toffee leather. I like that the cushion covers are machine washable!
