I can't count the number of times that we've had to deliver a couch by lifting it up to a second story balcony to bring in through the patio door because the interior stairs were too tight. Extra fun when it's a queen sofabed!

Sorry to bump an old thread but does anyone have any experience with EQ3 sofas?
My wife and I really like the Remi sofa https://eq3.com/ca/en/productdetail/...---fabric.html but we're not too sure about the quality of EQ3 and how well they'll hold out.
We also like the Gus Jane Sectional: https://gusmodern.com/collections/se...onal-wood-base
Anyone have experience with either of these? We also went to check out united boulevard but nothing really stood out at us like the two above. We're hoping to find something in that style

Highly recommend the Urban Barn outlet in Poco. Bought a new one sectional there at an incredible discount (~45% off list) as it was a custom order (probably from Stylus) that the original purchaser had a change of heart on. New stock arrives every Thursday!

Eq3 is decent, but expect to wait a really long time. It took me 6 months to get my kitchen table from them after 4 delays. If you don't need your furniture right away, and don't mind being lied to.. the quality is not bad. I'm not the only one i know who's had this experience with EQ3.
I have the Jane sectional and its great. Great quality, and fabric is industrial grade so its meant to be sat on more then your average couch. It was a bit stiff when it was new but its all good now.

Did you get your Jane sectional from Full House Modern?

CB2 has a version of the Jane designed by GUS you may want to check out. https://www.cb2.com/ditto-ii-grey-se...l-sofa/s540667
Its not the loft version though.

Just got delivery of my Harmony couch from west elm.
literally sat on hundreds of couches, this has to be the softest and most comfortable couch ever. HEAVEN ON EARTH!
My friends who bought couches and tried in store when it was delivered was hard as a rock. Not just leather but fabric as well

Never thought it would take this long to find the "perfect" sofa that we would keep for a while. Ikea made it easy as there wasn't too many options when we knew we weren't going to stay for more than 2years.

i was recently shopping for a sofa:
- had to have storage
- had to be sectional
- had to have a pull out bed or convert to bed
- had to be less than $1000 tax in
- had to be free delivery
- had to be fabric (non-leather)
- had to be customer colour or light grey color
winner: Dora sectional from JR Furniture $700 with taxes & free delivery.
pro tip: most of these furniture shops you can negotiate, never pay sticker price.

Probably the wrong type of store to try and bargain at lol, sales person just kept saying they'll sell it anyways at full price so no point in giving the discount since it was a popular sectional. Unfortunate this sofa is only sold by 2 stores here Y_Y.

Meaning we would get the sofa in about 8 weeks. We're not in that much of a rush and would rather save a bit and wait.
A bit longer than if we had gotten it from EQ3 the timeline they were giving us was 4-6 weeks with no guarantees. And after reading more it seems like it would take longer anyways.

Anyone have a good list of big furniture stores I can go and check out? Doesn't necessary need to be best price or bargain, just want to check out and get inspired.

We found united boulevard good to see what kind of furniture you could get but it wasn't really too inspiring.
We much preferred the stores on Granville to get inspiration we wanted something more mid modern
EQ3
West Elm
Structube
Full House Modern on 4th
Crate and Barrel in Oakridge.
