Whoops! Hey y’all! I’m a day late but I’m hereeeee! 😬 Sooo I definitely should’ve measured the sofa before purchasing! 🤦🏾♀️ But I promise it didn’t appear to be this big in the store lol 😩 Oh well! Lesson learned! On to the next! Thanks for watching! ❤️

When purchasing a sofa, it’s best to measure your space first, then measure the sofa in the store. Once home, Use painters tape to lay out the measurements of the sofa on the floor to get a visual before purchasing. Did you consider placing the sofa against the larger wall (where you have the tv) that way it faces out, and facing the kitchen and living area. Then place the tv and fireplace on the opposite wall.

I took a chance and built the wall prior to receiving the unit which arrived sooner than expected and it fit right in the space I constructed. The heat output is perfect for the space we needed and made the room exactly how we envisioned it to turn out. I am happy to answer any questions to the best of my ability. Thank you for the awesome product just in time for the holidays.

I've done paint pourings on canvas for years. Very affordable way to have 'real art'. My suggestion----you need to have more contrast in your paint colors---for example at least one dark color and two light colors of paint. A chocolate brown would have been a great mix in the paint colors you chose or a deep blue since blue is the color of your headboard.

The ceilings in furniture stores are high, so it makes the furniture look smaller. Those delivery drivers didn’t want to take the sofa back out. I would have rejected as soon as I saw the scratch. I am glad you found another, but always measure.

As someone who worked in a furniture store, i would print out full specs of the furniture a customer is interested in and then have them go home and measure. The tip is to use painters tape to measure out the items width, depth, and length. This way, they can have a better visual of how much space that item will be utilizing. And many of the clients I assisted were really appreciative of that simple tip. Because it’s extremely frustrating when you find something you like and go through with the order and it doesn’t fit. This just makes it incredibly inconvenient for the customer as they have to start from scratch and that’s time that they could’ve been enjoying their item..not to mention, but some retailers don’t even honor custom order exchanges.
