We finally bought this sofa
last week, which arrived Saturday. You can even take the little table top off of the end storage unit, putting one of the bolsters into the resulting cavity, making it into a bed.
It's a brilliant IKEA design.
We did this to replace a c1989 sofa of Andrew's, a sectional that took up the entire living room to the point that one literally had to climb over it in order to get to anything on the other side of it. This made me want never to have anyone over to the house, which is a huge part of my life--entertaining, that is. So now we have a real living room.
Plus now Andrew has a real desk, because I donated my steel steamer desk to him with my executive chair, and he now rules the back half of the living room as his study. It's all pretty magnificent.
Even the cat seems happier. She seems to be using her litter box more, bitching less, and even ventured into the living room for a while to nap in the same room as The Dogs. I am pleased.
Lisa! Your new design is awesome!!!
