Has anyone who owns couch dogs bought this sofa set? Even without dogs, how has this set held up over a year or two?

My dogs have not caused damage, but my cats have sharpened their claws on the top (does cause damage). It has held up very well to the abuse that we (3 60 lb dogs, 3 active cats, 2 rowdy kids and friends, and 2 adults) put it through. I have had it 3? years?

Our dog and our cat get up on the couch all of the time; however, they are small (10 lbs.). I wouldn't see any problem with a big dog or dogs getting up on the couch though. What's really nice is how easily it cleans up. We have only had our couch for about 8 months and it looks brand new.

I currently have 4, 60 to 70 lb dogs that love this sofa set. I honestly use a sheet on the seat of the sofa to help with hair. I have had mine for 6 months with no issue.

I have had the set about a year. It is not used often in my house but does it used. It has held up; looks brand new still. And very comfortable for lounging.

We have two chihuahuas who are each 9 lbs and the material has held up to them treating the couch like they own it. We've had the couch about a year and over all I'm very pleased with it, especially considering the price. We have one place on one of the arms that is showing a little wear in the front, it seems to be a place we accidentally rub against when coming to sit down. It's a comfortable couch (seemed a bit stiff at first). Again, for the price for the size of this couch I think it was a great but for us.

I'm a fan of it. It's not by any means, heavy duty. But it is good quality. I rescue pit bulls and recently bought a new car... Dogs are constantly jumping in and out on it and its held up great, no tears or even seam scratches. Over all I was pretty satisfied with the quality.

I have had this set for over 6 months and it has been holding up great! Our crazy pup sneaks in and lays on it during the day and she prefers to join us at bedtime too. Therefore, I would say that it gets a lot of use and I have not seen one pill on it. I wash it regularly (bc of the dog) and its been maintaining its color too. It's a bit lighter, but nothing that I would consider agitating. I am really glad I purchased this set for our warmer weather bedding.

Who knows. Its an awful couch though. Been wanting to do a review. Its nice looking, but we are looking to spend another $350 on cushions for it. Only bought it last year and its become incredibly unenjoyable.

We just got ours. Seems durable. Three kids, two big dogs, three cats. Seemed to have a decent warranty.

We have had multiple get-togethers at the house with people of all "sizes" and we haven't had any problems with these chairs. :-)I actually don't even think about them "not holding up" as they are very well made. I believe we have had them now over two years and they still look brand new.

Our mom has had the retro set for almost a year now. She is a fairly heavy person and the seats seem to be durable so far. No problems, and the set is very sharp looking.

I bought 2 of them a couple of years ago and they are still very good. I'm happy with them both. Though, I used them for my dog to get up and down the beds in the house so, they are not heavy duty used.

Sorry I no longer have the box or any info on this. I do know it is still working just as well as it was when I got it. The pet still stay off the sofa even though its not there anymore. I just have black piece of cloth sitting there where it was. I now placed it in front of bedroom door to keep the pawing away at night.

Its a good sofa set. Just make sure you follow directions putting it together. I have two kids ages 9 and 12 and a nefew who comes over durning school breaks and sleeps on the sofa, its been almost a year and the sofa is holding up very well. I think that if the kids didnt jump in the furniture it would be even nicer, but even with them using the furniture as playground equiptment and sleeping quarters it is still very sturdy.

I bought my set two years ago, so things may have changed. However, mine came packaged in several very sturdy boxes... so sturdy in fact, that we did not open the boxes to check on the quality of the furniture when it was delivered. We were in the midst of a remodel and it was easier to leave it in boxes. No problem with any pieces. Set still looks great! No problems at all.

The leather holds up well. I have two lab dogs that jump up on the furniture. The only time the leather scratched was when my one dog tried to make a bed on arm of couch and was constantly scratching it. Other than that, the leather doesn't scratch from just them jumping up on it. It's pretty tough. I'm overall happy with the set. It was pretty firm when I got it but it softens up.

I personally wouldn't recommend this couch because it was kind of pricey ($500 to me is expensive for a temporary couch) and it was hard as a board. As far as durability, it was fantastic. We have a dog that sheds A LOT and the couch was easy to vacuum, and if we had to, we could take the cushion covers off and wash them, no problem. It also looks great aesthetically. However, the cushions were so hard that no one wanted to sit on it, so we ended up selling it on Craigslist and getting a nicer, comfier, softer couch.If $568ish is low cost for you and comfort isn't a super high priority, I would say go for it. It looked like new when we sold it 2 years after purchasing it. Hope that helps!

We have three Bichon Frise 'kids'. They all use the large bed. They are young and light in weight. They have no problem using this bed. It has maintained its firmness. We have had it for several months. Maybe if your dog is very heavy it might have an issue with its paws leaving a quick (not lasting) imprint on the bed, but not the cover. I would recommend giving it a try.

The infrastructure of the couch holds up well. I live in Southern California, so I can't attest to the snow, but it's done well in the rain and sun. For the winter months, I highly recommend pulling all the cushions off and storing them out of the snow. As for the remainder of the year, the cushions do show some fading from the sun. As I said, we get sun here, and lots of it. Last summer we routinely hung out in the 100 degree range for about three solid months. There is some fading, but the cushion structure is fine. Still lots of bounce left. It probably would have held up better had we been better about covering it regularly, but we left it uncovered for about 8 months because we were using it almost daily. Also, they are a lighter color, so they will stain if you let something sit for too long. Really, no surprises for well constructed outdoor furniture. We still love it, and our guests do, too.

Bought the bed in 2011 still have it today and it's still doing awesome. Even with some rough "relations" it has stayed together well. Sturdy, no noisy at all, probably has something to do with the choice of bed you use. I should note that I have moved and taken the bed apart and put it back together with no issues! Furthermore, I do not have children so I don't know how well it will stand up to their antics.

It is pretty sturdy. Fine for sitting on. but if you have a wild child who pulls the cushion off and jumps on the fabric underneath, it will rip right through. I have had this set for a year now, and it's held up decently well. There are a few pokey spots-- little hernias inside the couch that create slightly uncomfortable bumps. But I have kids who jump on it. For the price, I think it's a good deal for what you get and it's liberating to know that if you have active puppies or kittens or children who will eventually grow out of their destructive phase, for now they are ruining furniture that would only last 3 years.
