Why is it so difficult to find a contemporary looking (clean lines) fabric three seater couch these days that’s firm (foam density 2.0 or higher) for around $800 that will fit up the stairs in a condo? I read reviews where people are unhappy that a couch with a medium firmness in the showroom sags three months later. There seems to be an abundance of two seater, not really super firm couches in furniture showrooms these days for around $700 to $800. Some stores don’t know or won’t tell you the foam density. The firm cushioned couches that give you a feeling they won’t ever sink down are about $1200 and it seems to take 4-8 weeks for delivery since most are custom order. I don’t want to spend $1200 or more on a couch that will only be used three months out the year.
im not sure if i really needa couch. the last few years ive been too lazy to use it. me and my kids kind of collapse on the floor. we call ourselves “floor people”. we can save a lot of money by using the floor as furniture — table, couch, storage.

Over the last 4 years we have bought 2 sectionals (over 13 ft each) and 2 sofas for our house.
The sofas were $600 for 2 (Mor), one sectional was $2K the other $2.5K (both Macy’s).
So far – they have all been great – none shows any sign of wear…and the Mor cheapies get hours of use each day!
And I wouldn’t worry too much if you see a few people online bitch about sagging/wear. There were several complaining about our $2.5K sectional online and it has been perfect. I think some people could find fault in anything.
We are actually looking for one more couch, then we will be full up in all our rooms.
