Sofa
Hello
I’m currently sat on my battered old sofa whilst my daughter does a headstand thing on it and my sons sitting on the arm. Every zip is broken and quite frankly it’s disgusting. We bought it from DFS ten years ago, Pre children! I’d love a new one. Washable covers, no zipped on cushions or loose cushions at the back. It also can’t be a corner one so need a big three seater and a two seater. Not cream coloured! So where do I get one from (that’s not too expensive) and will my children ever stop treating the house like a soft play? 😀 |

We’ve just bought DFS chesterfields for the very same reason - no loose cushions but not sure about washable covers! We have had them stain sprayed. I was desperate for something fuss free and that didn’t have all the irritating backs that’s squash down and the kids wreck. It looks much hardier. And it’s quite classy looking too.

We had Ikea washable sofa for years. Cheap comfy and washed pretty well. You can also replace the covers easily.
We’ve now got one from Harvey’s which I like. But it does have zipped on cushions. |

Your children won't stop treating the furniture that way until you tell them to stop and mean it. I actually hate it when children do not treat their home with any respect and it makes me wonder what they do in other peoples homes too. But it is down to you.
I believe some places have some great sales on at the moment. |

We were going to buy a Natuzzi sofa until the sales lady lied to my face. It left a really bad taste in my mouth so we ended up going back to Laura Ashley where we have always bought sofas from. Never had any problems, good quality and a good range of fabrics. Plus it's saved us £5k by not buying the Natuzzi one so we're happy!
