Does anyone have this couch from Bob's?

Just wondering how it holds up. I really like it but I'm worried that the fabric is so light. Do you get a lot of stains/marks on it? Is it easy to clean?

Re: Does anyone have this couch from Bob's?

i dont have that couch but i do have a sectional in a light color. it looks nice but i prob would never get something that light again.
we got that color before we had a dog. you can scotch guard it-what we did seemed to hold up pretty but def shows more signs of living than something else may.
i usually keep it covered unless people are over.

I don't have that couch but I've got a similar couch from them and I HATE it...we haven't even had it 2 years and the frame is coming apart. We are moving and had to buy a whole new couch Chat Icon

I have a similar couch and I would never buy light again. Especially since we have three kids now. There is just not enough time in the day to clean the stupid thing. If I have a separate living room that wasn't used as the main part of the house, then I would consider it. I love it, but it's not good for a high traffic area.

I have this set, as well as the chaise lounge.

I bought it from Bob's with full intent that I will probably be throwing out the set in the next 2-3 years anyways, when we can afford to upgrade our living room. It does pick up a lot of dirt and I am constantly vacuuming it because I have pets.

It also shows "water" stains a lot easier.

I also will never get a couch with the seperate pillows again. I am going to have to probably bring them to the dry cleaner's at some point soon so I know they are really clean.

ETA: I am talking about the large back pillows, not the throw pillows. I have only had the couches for like a year and they back pillows are pretty worn.

We have it and it's in our front living room. It's not used regularly so it doesn't show much wear except for where my dog sits on the back pillows. I've noticed that when there are some stains, they wipe right off. I would not buy this for a regular use couch though.

Re: Does anyone have this couch from Bob's?

I had a light couch... it was darker than this one... and yes it def showed stains.

now i have a couch called berry sangria... we def went to the darker side!!

my couch is from bobs and we love it. but we went to the store and literally bounced on every single couch to find the sturdiest one they had and it's perfect. not a single problem.

my old couch was from levitz (which is gone now i think) and we paid about 4g for it... it was falling apart less than a year and despite having a warrenty we have to fight them to come fix it. it was a disaster. eventually we had to chuck it... i don't think it lasted more than 4 years. what a waste!!
