This weekend DH said that maybe in a few months we can replace just our couch in the living room.
It's 10 years old and not nearly as comfortable as it once was. It's not the supports; it's the cushions themselves. We have the matching chair and love seat as well. Those are still comfortable; but they take up more floor space than I'd like. (Noodles has clawed both up too.) The arms kind of flare out. It makes them nice and large for kitty naps and they are good to lay against; but they do waste space. The couches are also the kind with separate pillow backs. Those wore out ages ago and man are they annoying!! My kids currently have ALL of them on the living room floor and they are bouncing around on them.
I could use some advice on fabric choices please! I'm not a fan of leather; at all. I was thinking that maybe when it comes time to replace the love seat and chair we can just get 2 club chairs or something along those lines. That should help me get a cohesive look to the living room. But I'm dealing with small kids and the cats for several more years. Any advice? Is 10 years a decent lifespan on a couch? I tend to sleep on the couch for the first half of every night (or all night when the kids are particularly needy; so DH can sleep before work) so I guess we put ours through a lot.
