Anyone got/had a next sofa?

I've been looking at the sofas on nexts website but they don't have a reviews section in their descriptions.

I've been looking at the fabric ones. Has anyone had or currently got one? What's the quality like? Do they stand up to 2 children and a dog?

I currently have a dfs one that is 6 years old, the structure is perfect but is looking the fabric looks worn and has been pulled by the dogs claws.

We have a Next sofa. It is brown in a woven texture (much nicer than it sounds). Have had it about 4/5/ years and it has worn really well, despite the best efforts of the kids and dog to wreck it!

I'm going to be ordering a corner couch tonight-want dh to check it to make sure I'm ordering it the right way round Grin

I prefer the silvery grey fabric but with the kids and dog we will be going for the charcoal...booo!

Love that it can have blended armcaps that I'll be able to take off and wash

Glad there's some good reviews for them, how long did they take to come? It's saying up to 7 weeks when I go to checkout. But that will give us time to get new flooring down and figure out how to get all the wires from sky etc across the room

I've had a pale gold chaise and a cream/duck egg sofa for 2.5 years with two cats, three kids and a bottle of red wine. They still look great. I can't believe the bottle of red wine didn't leave a mark. Can't praise their stain resistance enough!

Oh god really!
Maybe people should start matching their sofa choices to the colour wine they drink Grin

Or in my case what baby poo colour.

Argh I'm so excited, instead of having a 4 seater and a chair we're going for a corner couch and table and chairs....oh the luxury of eating dinner at a table again!

We have had the corner sofa since Jan in a slate textured fabric.
Its lovely. Prior to that we had a next fabric sofa for 12 years with kids and dog. They survive amazingly well.

I've had one for about 7 years. Really lasted well.

Yes, I have one and matching chairs. All still as good as new. The customer service was fabulous too.

Just hope the 7 weeks delivery doesn't get messed about now

Super chuffed now, have just seen the same sofa but in a slightly darker fabric in the sale so have ordered that one and cancelled the previous order.
Strangely the sale sofa will be coming on Monday, a couple of weeks before the first one was due
Saved £675!

Love our next sofa. Also have a Sherlock chair and a snuggle chair. All get loads of compliments.

No, but I have always had such fantastic customer service from
Next that I wouldn't feel nervous ordering stuff from there with mixed reviews. Every time I've had a problem they have replaced stuff immediately or done whatever they can to help.
