insane 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2010 bought my sofa last nite. we had initially having a headache deciding between Univonna and Sea Horse. We like both sofas and in the end price plays the deciding factor. we bought a Sea Horse 3 seater L-shaped sofa in dark brown. Sofa is in part real ltaly leather and the model we bought is on offer so price plus delivery (delivery charge apply cos promo item) is $599 plus. good buy IMHO... the price between Univonna and Sea Horse Is huge lo. Last week went furniture mall to look see see. Univonna sofa cost abt 2.5k. I also thinking should I get the seahorse one instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I also thinking should I get the seahorse one instead. ya, that's why it's a deciding factor for us. Univonna is comfy and huby like the adjustable headrest design but to spend another couple more thousand jus to get real leather is not worth for us at this moment. sea horse works jus fine and is comfy too. now GSS got 50% sale plus our model got further discount thus the cheap price. do go check it out.

Zelly 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2010 yeah, infinite....so excited for u...finally ur turn. soon it's going to be zelly's turn too. we should be completing pretty near each other. maybe can organised a mass home visit? wahahaha.... Me getting my Keys next monday! Hopefully my reno can start on the following wednesday. As my reno is pretty minor, I should need about 3 to 4 weeks period. Mean while I have to get my granite(10 days from measure to fixture) and wall paper guy (design selected just need to wait for carpentry completed) in to measure various areas. Furnitures (almost all customed made) are all coming in Mid to end July. We should be already enjoying staying in my new place in Aug. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Err, do note that 1/2 leather tend to spoil faster than real leather though. I am lucky to have someone i know working in the furniture shop where I bought my sofa so mine considered pretty good price for real leather. . I am guilty of loving real leather and adjustable headrest and arm rest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am guilty of loving real leather and adjustable headrest and arm rest. for me it's fine cos we are using 1/2 leather for my MIL's place and it's been abuse by all of us, including children and it's still standing proud. The reason she is changing is that she wants to change from a 3 + 2 to a L-sided. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zelly 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2010 so zelly will be like me the last time, looking forward to weekend ending? we r also requesting furnitures to come in end July... hopefully HO is before Aug. Nah.. we are going to m'sia for church activities and will be back on sunday evening only. We are more concern in knowing the schedules various parties can start and end work. The "key" factor is when we have the keys so we can start work.. . Anyway monday we meeting the contractors and various sub contractors at the house liao. Cool! By then most of the heavy works should be done bah, and can start puting things in liao. Small things and touch up before HO will not be so major also.
