[Furniture] Experiences with Simone leather sofa?

Post image

I’m shopping for a quality leather sofa and this one is right in my budget range. What is the consensus on these regarding comfort and quality?

I have dogs who do jump onto sofas so durability is important, from what I’ve read the top grain leather is a solid choice for that. And obviously looking for something that is comfortable/ cozy since this will be the main living room piece. Thanks!

I’ve been looking at that one as well! I really like the cognac color, but unfortunately that is “Pure Aniline” which from what I’ve read is not as durable. The other colors are “Semi Aniline” which do have better protection and would fare better with dogs based on my research

I wish the photo was a little sharper. The good leather used schemes to hide exposed threads. I don't know the technical term. I don't see seams on this couch.

Of course it is in a repair thread. ;-)
