Couch, Couch, Couch.
I keep ping-ponging between three choices. Each has their merits and charms, but I'm not sure which one is really for me.
The first is the Slipcovered Sofa Jasper from Room & Board.
I'd get it in the Snow color as shown, it's washable and has those fantastic pin legs. I own a black cat though, that is to say she owns me, so I'd worry the couch would be covered in hair every time I turn around. I LOVE the way the slipcover sits, looks so casual, a couch like that could easily be very uptown, I think the slipcover negates that. It's also 71" long, which is great because my living room is small and most couches are boats.

Next up is the Burke from Room & Board.
I think the site is being tweaked right now because I could only grab this picture and no info.
They have (had) this great Kiwi Colored fabric, which is what I was interested in. Again, great pin legs, 74" and great lines. Wish I could show you the color I like.
Moving on to the more affordable couch. The Ikea Beddinge Sofa Bed.
I love the green and it has these rectangular pillows that act as arm rests. It is the only sofa bed out of the three which is great because we have no place for guests. I also have visions of Sundays laying on this as the bed in the living room watching Law and Order marathons. At a fraction of the other two it's appealing...but there's not the same passion there. So it might be a great "for now" couch, but I think my heart is really with the Jasper. I need to go and lay on it though, see if it's good for naps or plopping down and vegging out.
