are you familiar with any of these sofas?

OP here. Actually the PB one is the one with the square arms:

No personal experience with those but all the PB furniture I've purchased has been crap. C&B is usually pretty well-made and I like the looks of the C&B over the Room & Board.

We have the Rochelle. It has held up well, but I wouldn't describe it as easy to clean, at least not in the fabric we have.

I like the Ethan Allen one and the Room and Board one. Crate and Barrel and Pottery Barn furniture is usually pretty crappy. Also take a look at Arhuas. I bought some chairs and sectionals from them that have really stood the test of time.

Ethan Allen furniture holds up beautifully. It's my go-to. Ever PB couch I bought has collapsing cushions before long. Very uncomfortable.

Which fabric do you have?

We have three Ethan Allen sofas (different styles than your photo, though); they are very comfortable and durable. I'd absolutely recommend EA; all of the furniture we have bought there has been great quality and worth every penny.

And see, we have Ethan Allen furniture that I don't like. Not happy with at all.

I like lower arms on a sofa. The first one would be out for me.

I like the first one but high arms are nice if you are laying down on it. I also like one solid cushion on the bottom of the couch for resting. We have a pottery barn couch I got on major clearance and it has been holding up well but we also keep it covered with a blanket.

We have this one from C and B and are very happy with it.

I love the look of Ethan Allen's stuff but the price doesn't match the quality. Their furniture just isn't made from quality materials. We have two C&B sofas right now though that we're very happy with. One is 10 years old, the other 3, both holding up great. My mother has a PB sofa that's holding up well, but I don't think it's very comfortable.

I've seen PB square sofas on Craigslist, and they always look terrible, like the cushions don't hold their shape.

You have to sit in all of them. I like to sit in the corner of sofas, and most are uncomfortable. You need to try them out in the way you like to sit on them.

I wound up with Ethan Allen because I needed pieces if a sectional that didn't look like a sectional - my living room is on the second floor, and in have a weird staircase where you can't get a proper large sofa up them.

C&B had terrible fabrics, especially on the stock ones.
