Such a useful post as always! We have some old furniture we would love to get reupholstered, but we don’t know how to pick some good upholstery to replace the current look.

Such a useful post Stacey, thanks for sharing. I bought durable and practical leather sofas about 10 years ago – but I’d love a fabric sofa now the girls are older. There’s still so much life left in the leather ones though it doesn’t seem right to replace them x

Stain resistant is a must with kids and pets. Hope you manage to find your dream sofa and that its practical too.

Thanks Maria, glad you found it helpful. It’s a delicate balance but armed with the information I’m sure it’s relatively easy to find the perfect sofa. There are just so many options to choose from.

Thanks Hollie. I won’t be overlooking them again. Sofas are a huge investment and it pays to consider these aspects and not purely aesthetics.

Glad you found it interesting Marlene. In hindsight I totally should have opted for a sofa with removable covers. Kids and cats eh! Who’d have ’em? Lol
