We have been looking for a couch since September. Our current couch is from Big Lots and is falling apart after 8 years and some determined cat scratching. I don't want to spend over $1000 on this, but I'm not totally happy with what I'm seeing at Ashley Furniture, JC Penney, Ikea, etc. Plus I got burned by Ashley the last time we tried to buy a couch (they told us it would be two weeks, then three weeks, then I confirmed my appointment for delivery only to find out that it was back-ordered and wouldn't be available for another eight weeks).

So, where did you get your couch? We don't want leather with the cats. It's also a big commitment for this piece of furniture that we will probably have for the next 10 years or so.

ETA: I live in KY but within driving distance of Cincinnati, Indianapolis, and Nashville.
