[quote=Anonymous]First you need to understand that Pottery Barn, West Elm, Crate and Barrel, or any of those other chains ARE NOT QUALITY. yes, all your friends have it because it is literally one step up from Ikea. It is already assembled furniture (in most cases but not always - lots of the furniture in those stores requires assembly so read descriptions carefully), with a heavy coating of plastic veneer that incidentally easily chips and exposes the plain wood underneath leaving what looks like basic plywood exposed, and is delivered to your home. Pottery Barn has the most classic look but the others sell trendy furniture that will look dated in a couple years so that’s something to keep in mind as well. I am not saying you should not buy it but make sure you get the best deal on it possible. Also Wayfair and Overstock sell some solid wood furniture as well that is already assembled. In terms of sofas, just buy what is comfortable and has long wearing fabric.[/quote]
