Performance Fabric is not good for pets & couch was dirty
The couch showed up super dirty, even though there was no external damage to the packaging. I purchased the 84" kova with a storage ottoman after almost a year of couch research and was pretty disappointed. I picked the Performance Chenille fabric in Oyster White and have no idea why they called this a performance fabric or stated it was good with pets, because I've had it for two weeks and it has already snagged in so many places from pet claws. While customer service was responsive, they only offered a 10% reimbursement and then 15% after I pushed back. Or, if I wanted to return it, I'd still have to pay for 20% of the couch. I do feel its important to note that they did offer to send replacement parts instead of a reimbursement if I chose to go that route. Lastly, this couch isn't nearly as comfortable as everyone states. There are no springs in the couch and the cushions just sit on top of wooden boards, so there is no give in the couch or sinking into it. Overall, I'm pretty disappointed and would not purchase again.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re very sorry to hear your Kova arrived dirty and hasn’t met your expectations—especially after so much research. That’s understandably frustrating. We regret the issues you’ve experienced with the Performance Chenille fabric and snagging from pet claws. While it’s designed for durability, we understand your disappointment and are happy to revisit replacement cover options or review your case again to see if there’s a better resolution that will get you loving your sofa again. We also appreciate your comments on comfort. The Kova has a supportive platform base rather than springs, which creates a firmer feel that may not be for everyone. Our team will reach back out to you shortly to talk about additional opportunities to make this right for you.
