Ask Jen: Custom sofa on a budget?
Monday, November 9th, 2009
Question: With the current recession & a very limited budget, I’m trying to update a small living room. I’m adding color to walls & have studies color wheel a lot. I want to have a sofa made in a microfiber velvet for durability, but I don’t have thousands to spend nor do I want junk that will only last 3-5 years. Can you suggest reputable places where I can order a custom sofa? Thank you for your reply. –Sandy
Answer: Hi Sandy, Unfortunately, truly custom sofas start around $2,500 (not including the fabric cost). But, now there are furniture stores that have lots of sizing options as well as fabric choices, which is a more affordable option. I would recommend the Mitchell Gold & Bob Williams line. The quality is good for the price point and there are 300 fabrics to choose from. There is a showroom in San Francisco called Ruby Living where you can sit in sofa models and see the fabric options. You can also try Room & Board, they don’t have quite as many fabric choices, but they offer a wide range of contemporary styles and lower price points. I hope that helps!
