[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The durability is hit or miss. I have 25 year old Ikea furniture that is still going strong, and I have items that only lasted a year. It is worth it to go to the store and scrutinize what you are buying. Some things look great in the catalog but not in real life. Other things that I had not considered from the pictures turned out to be great items once I saw them in the store. FWIW, the sofa I bought 5 years ago is holding up well even though 3 boys use it as a jungle gym and trampoline. However, they discontinued the product and now I can't get new slipcovers for it.[/quote]

Have you tried looking at Bemz for slipcovers?  They do have slip covers for some discontinued lines and yours may be one of them

No. I have a Hovas sofa and they don't carry it. There are multiple places online that offer nice custom covers for the Hovas sofa but it's going to cost $300+. It's probably worth it but I'm going to wait until my boys are done destroying the cover we have. (We're about halfway there, but the frame is indestructible.)[/quote]
