POLY & BARK Napa 88.5” Sofa in Full-Grain Semi-Aniline Italian Tanned Leather, Onyx Black

Looks fantastic, easy to assemble, and very comfortable so far.
I was back and forth between this sofa and another brand at another retailer that used spring-loaded sofa cushions. They both have solid wood frames and leather everywhere (both VERY important for longevity) and was leaning a bit towards the spring-loaded sofa cushions based on some of the reviews for this sofa indicating the cushions had gone flat fairly quickly.What changed my mind to this sofa was recognizing that I can have the cushions re-stuffed with higher quality foam relatively inexpensively if/when they break down vs having springs eventually poke through the leather of a cushion. The fact the chase/sofa went on sale for under $2k for the first time in my watching it for over two years created the ‘right now’ buying decision.Assembly was simply a matter of screwing the legs in (and make sure to differentiate the corner legs from the center legs – they are different lengths) and attaching the two pieces together with the pre-attached clasps. The leather looks fantastic and I fully expect this to last as long as our current leather sofa, which we’ve had for about 25 years. Another thing I like about this sofa that led to the demise of our current leather sofa is it had the back cushions stitched to the sofa, so there was no back to the cushion. As the stitching eventually (with pets and kids) tore away, the cushions according to three different furniture repair people in the area couldn’t be reattached easily or affordably. This sofa having fully removable back and seat cushions is a benefit. The final selling point about this style was that is sits about five inches off the ground, allowing our little robot vacuum to clean underneath it.I’ve included one pic showing the zippered ‘container’ on the bottom of one sofa where the legs are stored for transport, which I thought was pretty creative. I also tried to grab an image of the wood exposed where the legs screw in, but it appears to be to washed out for detail; it should show the all-wood (rather than ‘manufactured wood’) construction providing better strength and resilience.***Four month update and pics – the sofa is doing fantastic. It’s used by our dogs (weights between 60 lb – 130 lb, because anything under 50 lb is a cat) much more than us: it’s a springboard, a wrestling mat, a lounging appliance and a sleeper. To be fair, we have had a cover on the sofa since we purchased it (off today for a washing), but it still looks new. A few feathers are starting to escape, which isn’t a surprise. Pics attached showing all cushions off, cushion backs, and fully intact. Also included a pic of the adjustable leg/footer thingy. Very pleased!

Great Couch
I ordered this couch because it is comfortable and it is durable. It’s easy to wipe down to clean and a family member has had the couch for 4-5 years and it still looks great even with kids and animals heavily using it. My husband is also tall and he likes the height of this couch. It was super easy to assemble. Loving our new couch!

Beautiful sofa, perfect size, deep.
Beautiful soft and supple leather! Packaged extremely well, very easy to assemble, pretty much the perfect apartment sofa.-Sofa is boxed perfectly. There is a small “hatch” on the bottom where the instructions and feet are stashed.-2 bolsters are included, they’re a little weak/soft. They compress easily, seem to be more for looks than function.-Has around 6 inches of ground clearance, allows you to easily sweep/vacuum under. Also is very light, can easily be moved to clean behind.-Perfect size to sit 2 with space to sprawl or 3 in a normal sitting position. Great depth, with cushions removed it’s easily big enough for someone under 6’ to sleep on. Comfortable, leather is nice quality, wipes down easily.

UPDATE: Very uncomfortable, like sitting on stadium bleachers
After owning these for several months, I have to downgrade my review. These are just not comfortable and actually painful to sit on after a while. I did try to return them within what I thought was the return window of 90 days. However, that is the return window if purchased directly from Poly & Bark; it’s only 30 days when purchased through Amazon.Pros:-Fast delivery…arrived in less than a week!-Arrived within the scheduled time window and the delivery men were very efficient and polite.-Assembly was very easy and quick. I received both the 88.5” and 72” sofas. Had them unboxed, assembled (which consists of screwing in the legs), positioned in my living room, and cleared away the packaging in less than an hour…and that was with a couple breaks. The most difficult part was dealing with the packaging.-The pieces are visually beautiful! They feel very sturdy and well-built. The leather feels like good quality.-I love the seat height…these are super easy to get up from.Cons:-Seats are almost too firm…there’s no sinking in to this sofa.-Color is not matched. The loveseat is a little darker.-Seat depth is too shallow. Needs to be a couple inches deeper…might be better if the seats weren’t so firm. It’s odd because the seat height is great for a taller, bigger person, but the seat depth feels like it was designed for a tiny person.-Leather shows scratches easily…I knew this would be the case after reading other reviews and am okay with it, but others may find this to be an issue.Bottom line is that I am happy enough with this purchase to keep them, but if I had sat in one in a store, I would not have bought these.
