I'm late to this discussion but I bought a sectional from the Sofa Company a few years ago. It was slated for delivery in September (ordered in late August), after delay and delay I finally threatened to cancel the order and received it on Nov. 21. We had to return all of the cushions to have the buttons re-attached (six months later) and were told they weren't done in their usual fashion because of the "rush" they were in to get us our couch (yeah, after I threatened to cancel the order). Now the buttons are off all of the seat cushions but we are out of warranty. The idea is good, their execution is fair but the experience is disappointing. Gigi818 on Sep 2, 2008
