Personal | Sofa Search

I’ve googled, hemmed, hawed and googled some more. Attempting to furnish the loft at the beach is becoming a pain.

What I want in my budget doesn’t really exist. Navy blue slipcovered sectional sofa. So.. here’s what I’ve turned up.

Rowe: LOVE the look of this sofa. The thin, square arms are right up my ally. The price is not. *This particular configuration is too big… While I want a chase, I don’t think I could get it with their sizes. The configuration that would fit, would run about $2800.

Ikea Ektorp $899: This one has the most redeeming qualities. Price is right, size is right and the slipcovers come off so we can wash them. I really don’t like the arms though. I have rolled arms on my current sofa and have really grown to loathe them.

Crate & Barrel $2299: Love the look, but fear it won’t be comfortable. I prefer a sofa with no back cushions, our current sofa has them and they just get really frumpy looking!

Ikea $779: This is almost too modern for me…. but willing to give it a shot. The price & slipcovered-ness are right. However, it’s actually dark gray… doesn’t come in a blue.

Crate & Barrel: Like the look, and the price is ok…. but I don’t particularly love the blue color it comes in…. wish it were darker.

Do you have any of these? Your thoughts? I’m getting mixed reviews!

Have you seen something else I should consider?
