I've had a sectional couch with the microfiber once and it tore very easily from our dog; can someone tell me if material on this recliner is durable?

We have two dogs... And we don't let them on the furniture, but of course, they do continue to try - and we haven't had any problems with the fabric ripping. I also have a chaise that has the same fabric on it and no problem with that either. Our dogs are large - so their claws are big and blunt, but not sharp.

Hi,I have this recliner. I have had it for a couple of months. My dog has not tried to bite it, so I don't know if it would stand up to that. Fot ghe first month I had a sheet over it as I was sleeping in it after having surgery.It it very comfortable. If you have long legs it may be too short when you have your legs out over the leg rest. It is not a heavy chair, so if you recline too much you may have a problem. I love my chair, and my height is 5 foot 2 inches and I weight 136lbs.

I don't own this sofa (yet) but this looks like the same micro fiber material as our old sofa. If so it's the best material for cats because it's almost impossible to snag. Our old sofa's foundation are sagging but the covering is snag-free after about 25 years and several cats and dogs. Yeah, we need new sofas!

I suggest contacting Bissell directly. They are super helpful with these kinds of things. My gut says NO - it is not right for a microfiber sofa as it comes out fairly wet and that might damage the microfiber. But, you should check with them as they may have another product or be able to direct you to how to clean it.

So far the faux fur has held up surprisingly well. No tears anywhere yet. They climb up and down it all the time. Hope this helps!

Yes. This recliner is durable. It is very nice, comfortable, and a good chair for the money. I don't believe you would be disappointed.

I've had one for some time. Very nice couch. It's a bit on the firmer side but still comfortable. we love the couch. We've probably had the couch about a year and its holding up well with no issues.

I am pretty sure No. Probably polyester, (for better wear and low flammability), but it does have a kinda heavy course linen feel. We are pretty picky and for the money, its a great couch.

No, It is not a Microfiber, its a durable woven fabric. Its is very well represented by the photos (Use the zoom). As a precaution I have sprayed my chairs with scotch guard. I love them they look great!, and are very sturdy.

mine is generally up against the headboard or the couch, which is microfiber, and the color has never bled out. Doesn't seem the type of material that this would ever be a concern.

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.

I have this chair for like 9 months now. Absolutely no issues with the microfiber covering. I pretty much use it every single day. But it does generate a lot of static electricity. Every time I sit on this chair and touch something metallic I get a jolt.Overall build quality is still questionable. Its wood inside, I don't know what kind of wood it is but it doesn't feel very sturdy. I am 5'8'' weighing like 175 lbs.

I'm not sure if another unit is better, but I have a microfiber sectional, and it works AMAZINGLY on it! Since that front part can flip from the rougher swirly part to the more gentle brush, that helps too. I do have to clean that mini brush part a bit, since it collects my cat hair a lot, but there has been zero damage to the fabric!

David, here is where we are coming from. My husband likes the sofa, BUT, he said to let you know that he does not try to recline it after the first day, because he is not sure it will return to position, for like you mention, the recliner has an issue. Ours also had a tear in the back , but we got that repaired. HOWEVER, he likes the sofa very much. I was going to return, but he said, he prefers that we keep it. HERE is a positive. There way the lower part of each top cushion curves out makes it easier on our backs.In fact, if you sit and put up your feet, it is almost like reclining because of the shaping of the back cushions. And, the price is certainly right. Have had ours a few months. Hope this is helpful. Will be interested in what you determine, one way or the other.

Yes it is. Very wearable and cleans well. I use this recliner daily and have never had a problem with fabric deterioration. I live in a dry, windy place and this fabric has withstood all environmental elements. Hope this helps.

Hi...hope I am of SOME help. Have owned the sofa- love seat for a little over a year. For not being actual leather it is holding up decently, HOWEVER, I do not have children or pets. Don't think it is made for rough-housing. Cushions are holding up well. Use it everyday.

The chairs are made out of microfiber. They're extremely easy to clean, but the fabric tears very easily, such as when cats get a hold of it. :/

I agree with Laura's assessment: NOT durable. Mine lasted a couple of months, but dog is not a scratcher. Now I'm having a hard time trying to find someplace where I can buy a replacement cover just to add "insult to injury". :-/
