We’ve been getting by with an old, worn out couch that desperately needed to be replaced, and I’m frankly one buying cheaply made couches from the big box stores. Putting together my Cozey Corner, the only difference from a regular couch is that you put two seats together with the corner, and then the other two seats on their own, and then join the pieces together in the middle using the toggles. And you can easily take all the cushions off the couch to clean them, unlike a lot of couches.
