Bobkona Sofa

Pros:
-Inexpensive
-Good quality
-Does't have that cheap look to it
-Prime Eligible

Cons:
-Assembly required
-Not the most comfortable of couches

For the price however, you can't really complain unless you find couches of the same quality for around the same price; which I can almost guarantee you won't.

Amazon.com Product Description

Comfortable, stylish, and spacious enough for entertaining, the Trenton sectional sofa from Bobkona creates a perfect spot to lounge with a book, chat with a friend, or take in a favorite TV show. Available in a range of handsome hues, the design combines a loveseat and a three-seater sofa to create its generous L shape and includes a pair of matching accent pillows. The furniture pieces are all built on a hardwood frame with sturdy plastic legs and rich chocolate-hued faux leather upholstery. Quality poly fiber fills the cushions and pillows for support and comfort, while a super-soft microfiber upholstery covers them in your chosen color. For a bit of visual play, the accent pillows feature a checkered design that blends the faux leather and the microfiber.

Overall, the Trenton is a nice match for most contemporary homes and offers ample space to gather, recreate, and relax. Some assembly is required, as the set is delivered flat packed. All set up, the Trenton measures 112 inches wide by 35 inches high, and the sofa and loveseat are each 34 inches deep. For a fully coordinated room, look for the faux leather rectangular ottoman in complementary colors, also by Bobkona.

5.0 out of 5 stars Regarding Bad Reviews May 9, 2011

By Jared

Color Name:Hazelnut|Amazon Verified Purchase

Just about every bad review I've seen on here of this sectional is because of one of the following:

1. Ordered from a vendor other than Amazon
2. Ordered this couch, but received a completely different couch (probably because of #1)
3. Ordered the wrong color (nobody's fault but your own, since you can choose the color before you buy)
4. Improper care / misuse of cushions

I just don't understand. For most people, buying a $680 couch is a significant purchase. Why on earth would you shoot yourself in the foot by not making absolute certain that you're getting what you pay for, and taking care of what you pay for? As others have mentioned, Amazon will back you up 100% on your purchase. If you didn't receive the correct sofa or color, contact Amazon and they'll cover you in a flash. If you do nothing about it but come on here and post a bad review, you're not only hurting yourself, but other people looking to buy a new sectional as well. There is a very specific warning about pets on the cushions, as well as information on how to properly care for the cushions. There is also a warranty for the cushions in case they "warp" or "sag". Some people have said that the cushions begin to misshape within a few months, which is well within the cushions' warranty. It's your own fault if you do nothing about it.

Off of the soap box and onto the review. Everything about this sectional is fantastic except for one thing: the directions. First of all, the directions coordinate each piece of the sofa with letters (A, B, C, D, etc.), BUT there are no letters anywhere on the pieces, or even the wrapping paper they come in, to identify them. So looking at the letters in the directions does you no good, which means all you have to go by are the pictures. My wife and I put it together successfully by just looking at the pictures, and trial & error.

I haven't seen this mentioned, so I'll mention it in case anyone is wondering. Before assembling the sectional, you can choose which side is the longer end. In the picture, it shows the longer side on the right and the shorter side on he left. The directions tell you how to assemble it the other way, if you want. Be aware, however, that they aren't easily "flip flop-able". If you assemble the sofa then later decide you want to switch the sections, you'll need to disassemble some screws and parts of the sofa to do it correctly. Therefore, it is highly recommended that you already have a set plan for this couch before you buy it. Take a look at the dimensions and the pictures. It's a BIG sectional, and will easily take up most of the wall space in a smaller room.

This sectional is both decorative and practical. It can seat quite a few people (5+) and, in my opinion, is quite comfortable, though other people who have reviewed this sofa disagree. Every visitor I've had since we put this sofa together has complimented me on it. It really does look amazing (TIP: put this in the CORNER of your room).
