How has it held up? Did you buy the goof proof plan?

I did. It lasted 2 years and it totally fell apart. It was $1800 for the set and tables I think, IDK if you're buying a better quality.

I had the same experience. It's bonded leather and over time the "leather" rubbed off and the couches look TERRIBLE. The seats also droop badly & you sink in so it's tough to get on & off the couch for some people. We have 2 small kids so we're holding off a bit longer before we replace them, but I tell people to stay away from their couches all the time. We have an 8 year old real leather couch that looks 100x better than my Bob's couches did when they were only a year old (pre-kids)...they're now 4 years old & Chat Icon

ETA: We didn't get the Goof Plan

We got the goof plan, it doesn't cover it.

We have a leather couch and loveseat from Bobs and they are both holding up well so far. We've had them for a little over 4 years now.

I haven't gotten anything leather from there but, I have purchased numerous pieces of furniture with the goof proof plan and have been very unhappy with the quality of the furniture AND the goof proof plan (it's not as good as they make it out to be when they sell it - you need to make a claim right away on the damage and they fight you on coverage).

We have had a leather Power Bob Sofa & Loveseat for 3 years and they are still in perfect condition. We use them everyday and our dog and cats are always on them.
