Message: [QUOTE="Sean Regan, post: 181355, member: 5841"] This is so true. Here in the UK, new builds are quite small and you can't get in a lot of furniture. We'd had that sideboard for a number of years. We'd bought this coffee table from Dwell, three or four years ago. The two tops slide away from each other to reveal some storage space.

[ATTACH type="full" alt="1000-110339-3.jpg"]59707[/ATTACH] We bought this leather sofa at the same time, photo from their on-line catalogue [ATTACH type="full" alt="1000-144990-3.jpg"]59710[/ATTACH] On the day they were going to deliver it, I checked on line and it had been reduced by £400. So I rang them and they gave me a refund for the difference without any quibble. The sofa replaced an M&S we'd had for fifteen years, which had "hardly been sat on" as we have two Ekornes Stressless recliners in that room. There was nothing wrong with it, but it was too heavy for my wife to drag out and vacuum behind it, but I didn't fancy dragging it through the house. So I took it out through the French windows. As it wouldn't go through the door in the fence between the garage and the house,It was a new fence since we bought the sofa, I couldn't even give it to charity, so I chopped it up and took it down the tip. The new one has chrome bars as feet so it's easy to slide out. This unit we have in the front room we've had since the mid-seventies. It's been in and out of fashion ever since, (I think it's in at the moment). It's real teak veneer, made in Denmark and came in four pieces. It'd cost a fortune if you wanted one like it today.
