That is a great sofa! We also have a similar one with giant ottoman, which we use with a large tray on it as a coffee table. To be honest, I would have preferred an actual table but it does look nice.

Why? I'd like to swap our coffee table for an ottoman with a tray on top

I'm going to hazard a guess at kids being the reason? :))

The sectional and and Chicky's chair look super comfy.

Yes, I was going to go with “boys who wrestle and perform indoor parkour”.

:lol: All of the above! Also, the tray has raised edges, so you can't just slide your drink towards you and we've had several instances of the bottom of a glass catching on the edge and spilling over the ottoman. It does look nice though!

That looks really nice, Dutchie! Ours does not. We bought it in a rush during the pandemic and didn't actually measure for size. It's where our 100 pound sheepdog sleeps during the day so we can't even use a tray. :))

I see! I'd have naively thought it'd be better for kids :lol: We like to put our feet up.

My reasoning for not getting the matching ottoman was more to do with pets than kids. :)) Plus we already had a coffee table.

Well we opened up the packaging and found that the woman in the store ordered us the wrong colour. :lg: It's actually the cream colour of the ottoman in the photo. So hopefully we get a call back from customer service today to remedy the situation. So disappointing!

Oh no LM, how disappointing! Hope they get it sorted quickly.

Five, that is quite a fancy dog bed! :lol:

I love the sofas and Chicky's chair. Have you made a decision about the sideboard yet, Est?

We have literally just ordered it. Delivery will be in a week.

You may well get your delivery before I get mine, Est! We are expecting a call today, though our upcoming week is crazy busy. :doh:

Benson! :love: He is (mostly) the same colour as the ottoman, so he blends in well.

It’s not the best photo as it’s a bit dark in my bedroom now, but this was my Mother’s Day present from the kids.

That's a lovely MD gift, Est.

I've finished painting the sewing box I was given by a neighbour. It goes with the yellow one I painted some years ago. This one will house my embroidery threads
