I am so lucky to have found you guys! Being a newlywed who just closed on a condo, Ive been in the market for sofas!! Thank you so much for being a TRUE review of products… I’m usually the fool who buys straight from the overly expensive store and ends up SO disappointed! THANK YOU!!!

Sounds about right! I think we paid less but it was a few years ago.

Your sofa looks a bit like the darby rowe sofa–costs about $1200 when not a floor model. It has a slip cover and looks like square arms.

So sorry we have no idea what it is (never got that info at the time!) but if you bring a photo of our sofa with you they should be able to find it easily. The fabric is a linen-look cotton fabric in a cream color with striations in it (like linen). Hope it helps!

Hello, love this blog. I stumbled onto it while looking for a Rowe Nantucket sofa to go with my chair. I have the nantucket chair (9 years old now) and the pottery barn basic chair (12 years old). The Rowe has far outdone the pottery barn/Mitchel Gold chairs. The PB down is lumpy and the fiber added has become matted into the feathers and dosn’t fluff anymore. The arms padding has compacted to the point that you can feel the wood frame. The Rowe however has down cushions made in the US. Still soft and fluffy and much thicker. The bottom cushion has a layer of Memeory foam and the company uses eco friendly materials. MUCH better deal. I’m planning to buy the sofa to go with it…but may end up buying a new slipcover for the chair too so they go toghther :).

Hey Ayleen,

So sorry, we didn’t catch the model name. Since it was a floor sample on clearance it’s possible that they don’t make it anymore. Perhaps you can hunt down a local retailer and call them to see if they have any on hand?

Do you remember which model this is? I am looking into buying a slipcovered sofa, and was on the Rowe website, but can’t seem to find this one with the square arms. Thanks!
