Steph and I are looking at redoing our living room.

For our first furniture purchase a few years ago, we made the gigantic mistake of purchasing from Ashley Furniture. While comfy for a few months, our couches now are extremely bad --- you can feel all the mechanism from the recliner works underneath them.

We're looking at the stuff they have at Sofa Mart (part of Furniture Row, along with Oak Express). Their higher end leather couches look and feel way better than the Ashley ones, but I do not want to get burned again.

Our budget for a couch and loveseat is around $2,000 -- $2500 -- anyone out there have advice on where to go?

Thanks,
