If you have a couch that the end reclines on- I have a Q
This is a spin-off from my other thread
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 recline 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 ....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 LR ...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
The problem is ( its hard to see in the pic probably)...there is literally nothing to tack, there is hardly any fabric there
We were just so excited to get a new couch and shouldn't have listened to the delivery guys
And DH just told me that it was Rooms Unlimited not Raymour & Flanagan

OMG... pleaseee dont get me started on them That place should burn to the ground... Spoke top them today regarding a refund that they never processed for me... "oh yeah, just a few days it will be credited" yea freakin right... they are a bunch of lying bastardss... I b*tched the company out to the delivery guys telling them what a sh*tty company they work for and how i feel bad for them...
ETA: we prob have the same couch altho i got mine in dec... I just checked the back and all there is is a flap of material that covers the back of the recliner... its suppossed to stay together with the velcro but theres still a gap
