The New Couches Post

Yesterday our new couches arrived a the apartment, which was something we’d both been looking forward to since we ordered them back in early January. Ben and Jacob where over early in the day with the Hunt’s mini-van to collect the couches we where borrowing from their basement. After a few trips moving the things up and downstairs it was determined that two trips where needed to get both couches home. It’s really hand having vehicles that can lugging a large payload around- and people willing to let you borrow them!

The new couches look pretty awesome in the living room, though they will need a little breaking in. They are a alot firmer than the ones in the showroom, but I think a few weeks of couch potato-ing should fix that right up .I’ll just need to make sure to use the cushions in rotation! I felt bad for the guys that has to lug the sleeper sofa up the stairs…with the mechanism inside it, that thing is HEAVY! I had to have Jake and Dad come over to help me bump it into the corner after the delivery guys left because it couldn’t be a done with a one-man crew. There is a small tear on the chair, and the sleeper is missing a few bolts to tether down the back legs. A guy is coming over on Wednesday to maker the necessary repairs. Besides that we are very pleased with them. When combined with our other furniture purchases/presents of late the apartment is really looking nice!
