If you have a couch that the end reclines on- I have a Q

This is a spin-off from my other thread Chat Icon

I got a sectional from Rooms Unlimited about 2 years ago....One end is a recliner...The fabric (micro suede) where the recliner meets the couch in the back looks like this:

When the delivery men brought it I asked them if it was supposed to be like that ...They said it has to be in order for it to reclineChat Icon I didn't question it further because I figured it was something I had to live with if thats the way they are made and I wanted the end to be a recliner...

Since then I have taken notice of other people's couches with reclining backs and no-one else's looks like this Chat Icon ....Yes there is a gap in material to allow for the recline, but on others I have seen there is enough material to tuck it in to make a finished look...

I am so afraid that one of my DC's (or us) will snag it accidentally and rip the material ( which is super thin)...If it were up againt a wall it wouldn't bother me so much but its in the middle of my LRChat Icon ...We also have a recliner on the opposite end of the sectional ( that is along a wall) and it doesn't look as bad as that does...

Anyone else have this issue ? Is there anything I can do about it ?

that looks like a defect to me. I'd send pics to customer service and see what they say.

eta: just saw that you purchased it 2 yrs ago. At this point, I'd just tack the fabric down with a few stitches.

I could totally kick myself Chat Icon

The problem is ( its hard to see in the pic probably)...there is literally nothing to tack, there is hardly any fabric there Chat Icon

We were just so excited to get a new couch and shouldn't have listened to the delivery guys Chat Icon

And DH just told me that it was Rooms Unlimited not Raymour & FlanaganChat Icon
