Description
Need these gone ASAP to make way for our new sofa!
Let’s get the honest bit out of the way first: these sofas have *character*. Bought from Oak Furniture Land 6 years ago, they are incredibly comfortable, but as sofa retailers conveniently forget to tell you, PU leather eventually reacts to body oils and starts to peel in high-wear areas.
So, here is the good, the bad, and the slightly weird:
✅ **The Good:**
* **Power Recliners:** Both the 3-seater and the 2-seater have two motorized recliners that work perfectly. Super smooth, incredibly relaxing.
* **The Footstool:** Large, matching, features handy hidden storage, and is basically as good as new!
* **The 3-Seater:** The better of the two sofas condition-wise. Still has plenty of life left in it.
⚠️ **The Bad (and the Cat):**
* We have a resident feline overlord. He didn't use the sofa as a scratching post, but there are a few small puncture holes in his favorite cushions where he likes to sit.
* Delamination/peeling on the high-wear areas.
🛠️ **The Weird (Our DIY Genius):**
* The headrests on the 2-seater peeled pretty badly. Our solution? We securely attached grey velour, memory-foam-backed bath mats to the headrests. I know, it sounds absolutely unhinged—but look at the photos! It actually blends in well, looks way better than peeling leather, and is ridiculously comfy to lean back on.
**Who is this for?**
This set is far too good to end up at the tip. It’s absolutely perfect if you:
* Are a fan of covering your sofas in cozy throws anyway.
* Have pets/kids that will likely trash a brand-new sofa.
* Have the upholstery skills to recover them.
* Just want some top-tier, motorized lounging on a very tight budget!
**Pricing, Offers & The Deal:**
Because of the visible defects, I’m not asking for big money (just looking to put a few quid toward our decorating project, make me an offer, I need the space more than the money).
* **Bundle Only:** I will not split these up. The 3-seater, 2-seater, and footstool must all be taken together.
* **No Holds / Reservations:** I will not reserve them until you've seen them and agreed to buy. If you want to come view them in a few days, that's completely fine, but I will keep offering them in the meantime—so you might miss out!
* **Viewings Welcome:** You are very welcome to come take a look, test the motors, and marvel at our bath-mat engineering. I absolutely won't be offended if you decide it's not for you!
* 💰 **Bonus:** In the event you find any loose change down the sides of the sofa, consider it a bonus—yours to keep!
**Collection Logistics (Please Read):**
* **Weight:** These are PROPERLY heavy. You will need two strong people to carry them out to your vehicle.
* **Transport:** The backs do come off for transport, but the bases do not come apart. *They will not fit in a standard car.* You will need a van.
* **Location:** Collection only from Portsmouth PO6 (very close to Port Solent, just off Southampton Road). I cannot deliver.
