Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Don't you hate that so many reviews are written just after the item is rcvd? What I want to know is how the item-- especially something like a couch cover-- holds up over time. Well, I can tell you... These are WELL worth the cost. I have two young hyperactive boys, a 75 lb lab, and a cat with sharp claws (see pics-- it's hard to get the cat on the couch for a photo as a cat, of course, does whatever s/he wants). We've had these covers for at least six months, have washed them several times, and have used the heck out of 'em. They've stood up to it all wonderfully. Our Ashley's "best" couches were looking quite worn after the abuse we'd given them. Structurally they were ok (...about as good as could be expected, but then would you pay more than about $1000 for a couch given our parameters?? That's a flight to/from Europe!). But spills, scratches, and the like had them LOOKING awful. These covers changed all that for minimal cost. I looked carefully at reviews for a range of covers on Amazon, and these looked best, albeit a bit more on the costly side. They have not disappointed! After all this time, they look better than the couches did after 6 mos. Covers don't shrink in the wash. And the couch actually FEELS more comfy with the soft cover on it. The single cover for the whole set of cushions makes the couch less saggy. It's also easy to wash just the cushion cover as needed/more frequently. These are just AWESOME!! I plan to buy a second set just so I can change up the look of the living room now and then. Highly recommend!
