    Where did you Boston gals get your furniture, a sofa specifically.  I've read such bad things about Bob's Furniture, but they have a huge comfy couch that I like that doesn't break the bank.  But if it won't even last a few good years, then I feel like a better piece would be worth the investment.  Has anyone had any experience with Bob's or any other recommendations?  Thanks!

    I have a couple of people who have gotten couches from Bob's. They are very comfy but feel as though they are pretty broken in, even brand new. They seem to need to be replaced in about 3yrs or so if they are the main set. However they can be very inexpesive so can get you through if you need it to.

    I shopped at just about every furniture store and we ended up going with Boston Interiors. There prices were about the same as Jordan's but I felt we got a much better value for our money.

    not in boston but FI bought a couch this summer from Crate and Barrel..it was a whopping 1200 bucks but worth every penny. its microfiber so its very easy to clean and its full of down alt. feathers... soooo Comfy! and it is built to last..we will have this couch for many many years... my only complaint would be there is no sitting on this couch, i am always laying down haha. my feet dont even touch the floor.

    Have you tried Bernie and Phil's?

    My FI and I are still not living together but when we do we are going to Richie's in Chelsea.  Its not your typical furniture store but they have great prices.
