Go for it

I've owned two of these sofas, and while my reviews are very mixed between the two options, I have to say this is the best couch I've ever owned. The first time I purchased, I opted for the same fabric of the display couch in stores. I believe it's in the "Living Large Chenille" fabric. The display... model was stunning, grandiose, and so bouncy I had to have it. Unfortunately this fabric did not hold up well with my two medium sized dogs. It pilled and discolored easily within 2 years. In pursuit of my next sofa, I spent an entire year ordering numerous from viral custom brands that I'd just end up returning because comfort and size never compared to this Ethan Sectional. So I finally pulled the "screw it" card and reordered this one, in a hopefully more dog friendly fabric. I'm currently on my 3rd year of the Ethan Sectional in Contessa Ginger Velvet, and to this day am so satisfied that I gave this a second chance. Movie nights, morning coffee sits, food spills, playful dogs, sleepovers, naps… this sofa has held up through it all and still looks great. My bulldog walks along the back and sleeps on top of the back cushions often, which does cause sagging and mishaping, but adjusting and fluffing regularly keeps them held up until it's time to wash the covers. Something about removing the cover and putting it back on always makes the cushion shape look like new again. It's an extremely easy couch and fabric to maintain. My biggest recommendation is to wash the cushion covers 2-3 times a year (washing in warm water, drying on low heat) to keep the color fresh and shape of the pillows in tact. For the seat cushions, I opt to use a handheld carpet cleaner or a spray bottle and damp towel, as I learned from my first sofa that the covers are extremely hard to get back on to the extremely large foam. This method has maintained my sofa well enough that I couldn't recommend it more to those who are questioning whether or not to go for it.
