RODNEY RUSHING

I like.

⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ☆ (4/5)

“Seat Cushions: (+) I love them; they are what I consider firm compared to any other cushions I sit on, and I like firm. Pull handle: (-) They are way too hidden, and I have to jam my hand down a bit to find them. Once found they work effortless. Recline: (+) Works smoothly and goes pretty near flat. I have successfully fallen asleep reclined. Retracting: (-) When retracting the footrest, it doesn't easily latch. Even reverse kicking it while seated won't latch it. I have to get off the couch with the footrest trying to pop up, and push the footrest in. Arms: (+) Built-in pillows. Perfect softness and height; fell asleep successfully laying sideways too. Wishes: Color options. Have the center of the front frame base/bar go up and over an inch so I can insert a c-table over the center cushion.”

Movie Sofa!

⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ (5/5)

“We all love it! Very comfortable and the flecks of color subtly woven into the fabric add a beautiful dimension that I could not see online. It was a wonderful surprise. Very nice. We're delighted. We are movie buffs and all of us being able to sit back and recline is a wonderfully warm and fuzzy sensation. It's like a York peppermint patty!”

JOYCE STRIPLING

Workhorse is Working

⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ☆ (4/5)

“I don’t like where the top “cushion” on the back hits my head. I’m 5’3” and it doesn’t allow my head to rest comfortably. It has broken in a little and is more comfortable now, but still I would check this before I bought another couch. I think if you’re 5’5 or taller it will meet your neck instead of the back of your head, and be very comfortable. Otherwise my family and pets have been giving it a workout and it is holding up to the use and abuse really well!”

It’s a no for me

⭐ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ (1/5)

“Its hard to close up the recliners on the sofa. You have to really slam it to get it to close without popping back out. And I have really bad knees so this hurts!”

Painfully Uncomfortable

⭐ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ (1/5)

“Delivery, awesome. Sofa appearance, awesome. Comfort, horrible. This is the MOST uncomfortable piece of furniture I've ever sat on. When reclined fully it is painful in lower back and legs. Just awful. Don't recommend.”

Love This Furniture

⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ (5/5)

“I purchased the Workhorse reclining sofa and recliner chair from the website, seeing pictures and description only. Delivery was made when promised, and I love this furniture. The color is perfect, not too dark and not too light. The fabric is soft but durable. The furniture is comfortable and looks fantastic in my room. Very happy with this purchase!”

Travis Wood

Decent couch for the price!

⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ☆ ☆ (3/5)

“This couch is decent. You do get what you pay for. I like the couch but am not in love with it. This sofa starts out firm but then after a month or so of regular use does give a bit. If you're looking for a sofa for a basement or an area of the home that won't regularly be used for hours a day, this is your sofa. I am certain that this sofa will be around for about 5 years. Got it 6 months ago. I do love that the leg rest is solid and doesn't have any gaps and that it seems to handle my 6'0 height with my feet only overhanging an inch or two.”

MARIANNA HALMO

Looks better in real life.

⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ (5/5)

“Very comfortable; recliner works smoothly, easy to use. Initially, I could not locate the lever for the recliner until I reached in between the seat cushion and arm rest. Otherwise easy to pull and reclines to about a 145 degree angle; almost sleeping position. Love it!”
Sep 29, 2020

CAROL SOUTAR

Great reclining sofa and a great price.

⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ (5/5)

“Very comfortable and great color. Pull tab to recline is hidden between cushion and arm rest and releases easily. Reclines fully and only needs to be 3" from wall to do it.”

Jennifer Jacoby

Took a chance and it payed off

⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ (5/5)

“We purchased this solely from the reviews we read online. All the stores were closed (rightfully so). So we took the risk and ordered the sofa with the recliner chair. Let me tell you we were not disappointed! It is so comfortable. I agree that the color is more of a mushroom then brown. Which ends up being really neutral so it would match any space. The only thing that threw us off at first is the lever to recline is on the inside. Once you get used to it it's fine. Also we did have it assembled in our home, the delivery men were AMAZING!”

AZEEZ YINUSA

Good Set

⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ☆ (4/5)

“The set looks great in my living room. The set-up was relatively easy, except that the set only comes with 5 legs and there's no direction regarding which of the set the legs would be attached to and there are no pre-drilled holes for the legs, so the legs are not attached. 5 legs for 3 seaters. No idea how that would work.”

CARROLYN STEVENS

Best Couch

⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ (5/5)

“I love this couch. Mostly because it is a real couch. It doesn't feel like a recliner. But if I feel like putting up my feet I can do it with a pull on the inside handle. The material is soft and puffy and so nice to sit on. The only thing I would add is a throw pillow behind my back so that I can sit up straighter. It does tend to lean back a bit and since I have a bad back I tend to start to hurt after a while. I found with a little pillow behind my back tends to make it much more comfortable to lounge for longer periods. I chose the tan grey color and I really love it in my home. Matches everything. The armrests are very plush and nice to rest your arms on. Very comfortable when you are reclined all the way in the sleeping position too. This is just what I was looking for, not one of those faux leather couches that wear out real fast. Workmanship on this couch is a keeper.”

JODY BECKMAN

Great value and super comfortable!

⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ☆ (4/5)

“We love this couch! We have four kids so it’s perfect for our movie nights, everybody now has a comfy place to sit. The only reason I give it 4 stars is that there is no connection between the pieces, so they tend to move and separate from each other. I bought non-slip pads for two of them and that’s helping a lot, so I’m going to purchase some for the third piece as well. Not sure that this would even happen on carpet, we have laminate floors. I would recommend that the website update their pictures to better show the actual color, it’s quite a bit darker than the pics show. Luckily there were user photos so I knew this before I purchased. There was a tear in the back of the wedge, but the manager was so easy to work with and we came to a mutually beneficial agreement. Overall, we are very happy with our purchase and look forward to reclining in it for years to come!”

Good Sectional

⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ (5/5)

“It looks the same only larger than what it looks like in the picture. Same with the loveseat. We are having to wait until four weeks from the time we got the couch and loveseat to receive the wedge piece. I'm sure we'll be pleased.”

GARY CALLISON

Reclining sofa

⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ (5/5)

“Wasn’t sure about buying furniture online without being able to sit on it and make sure it was comfortable or would last....totally love this couch and the recliners that’s we purchased with it! Comfortable, color is as pictured and was very easy to put together!”

Phyllis Miller

Don't waste your money unless you are putting this in a roomwhere it won't be used much.

⭐ ⭐ ☆ ☆ ☆ (2/5)

“Nice to look at.. but does not hold up to daily use. The side of the couch I sit on has completely lost its shape and when I sit with the recliner up I can feel a support bar hit the small of my back. The recliner is also hard to put down. I am very disappointed in this couch. Oh.. did I mention I have had it less than a year and it's just me and my husband using it. Very sad.”

Ashton Amos

Great value!

⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ (5/5)

“We have had the 3 piece sectional for about 5 months now and we love it! It’s firm but still comfortable so you know you’ll have many years of use out of it. It is a VERY large sectional if you’re unaware of the size. This is perfect for people who love to host! Overall HIGHLY recommend!!”

This couch is great!

⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ (5/5)

“I bought this a few weeks ago. So far the family and friends enjoy it. Had to wake up guests as they fall asleep on it. The seat is stiff but the back and sides are so plush it supports you. Delivery was great although it didn't fit easily through the 32" doorway, as this comes completely assembled. It's longer than most recliners but my family is all 6' or longer so feet still hang off the end. I hope this holds up for many years.”
