Lee.orgThe coldest winter I ever spentA Good Loveseat11/22/2016, 12:00 pm, GeneralWhere is a good place to buy a loveseat?Megan and I went to Ikea and sat on all the couches and loveseats and didn’t love any of them. Then we went to Dimensional Outlet Furniture in Oakland. They had a loveseat that we really liked so we put money down on it. That night I went online and found LOTS of poor reviews for the company and especially for the covering material, Durablend. This “bonded leather” product starts flaking off in 3-24 months (review site, TV news scam buster) and the company generally doesn’t care. I’ve cancelled the order. So what sofa/loveseat brands are recommended?1 CommentThe OT Students’ Commuting Guide to San Jose State University11/20/2016, 3:31 pm, GeneralThe OT Students’ Commuting Guide to San Jose State Universitywith input from the SJSU OT class of 2015 and 2016.This document was last updated August 2015 and may be somewhat out of date.
