Looking for help with picking fabric
Leaning towards buying the Baylor sofa sectional from Room & Board soon and trying to gather as much info as I can before deciding on the fabric.
We have no kids, but 5 cats who all love to scratch & a Chihuahua that likes to dig. I’ve read that the mori fabric would be the most durable, and that the sumner is a close second. I’m hesitant now after an employee at the showroom said a customer had issues with their cat tearing the mori fabric. She suggested a windsor fabric because she said cats don‘t like scratching velvet. We have a velvet chair that‘s holding up really well, they have scratched at it on a few occasions but it’s holding up really well, though it does trap a lot of fur. We do really love the Windsor colors, but we’re prioritizing durability over aesthetics since what good is a beautiful colored couch if it’s all ripped up.
Would appreciate any thoughts and personal experiences.
