Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!!!

Chicken dinner that is, not steak.  I got an email from RC Willey today letting us know that we came in SECOND place.  However, since the votes were so close, they have decided to let us have a sofa of our choosing that is $399 or less.  Wahoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I will certainly take it!  I just wanted to give a huge THANK YOU to those of you who helped us out by voting.  We appreciate it more than you know.  We are so lucky and blessed to get this opportunity!  Since we have our choice of couches it makes life a little harder.  Zack and I are the WORST decision makers!  Here are some of my favorites right now. Let me know which one is your pick!
This one is a 92" (so a little long probably) chocolate microfiber couch.
Slightly different design.  This is a beige microfiber sofa.
This one is Zack's favorite.  This one is a brown upholstered sofa.  No microfiber here.
And another chocolate microfiber. Different from the one above. This one has 4 pillows on top as opposed to the 3 on the other one.

Thoughts?  Which one is your favorite?  Clearly we will go into the store and give them the "butt test" to see how comfortable they are.  Do you like microfiber?  Keep in mind we will now have a sofa and still keep our ugly love seat but use our slip covers.  The slip covers we have are a dark khaki color and I would like them to match.  Let me hear your opinions!

wow, congrats on 2nd place - so cool. and i had to laugh about you and zack not being able to make a decision. it's because you are the last children in your families. :) i speak from experience - ben and i (both the babies) have a very hard time making decisions!

so, of course, i can't decide on which couch you should choose. ha. any one would be great - especially as it is free!

I love the Beige microfiber. My parents have a microfiber couch and we love it. We have had it for over ten years and it's lasted really well. I don't know that they look as nice 10 years down the road as another couch may, but they certainly do look okay and we have LOVED ours.

Congratulations!

I like the chocolate microfiber 3 pillow, but they all look great! I'm so glad you guys get a couch!

Congratulations!!! I would definitely do microfiber because you'll be wiping spit-up and who knows what else off of it--and nothing light colored...speaking from experience with kids. :)

congrats!! i'd say the one zach likes just because i'm so tired of microfiber. because every couch we own is micro fiber. lol. that being said however, microfiber is for sure the easiest to clean and i like the tulip design with the four pillows on the last. the neutral will also hide stains better than the beige.

that's awesome! congrats. happy to see that somewhere, my vote counts for something!

Yay - congrats on getting a new couch!!

I don't think you can go wrong with any of the choices, but we have some dark microfiber in our living room that have been great. I have a friend with a light colored microfiber that "stole" the blue off someone's jeans - it did clean out, but it scared me away from light colored furniture! Good luck deciding :)

What the!! Sweet you guys deserved it for all the hard work. I say hands down Zach's favorite the brown one!! no question.

oooh so close! the first or last one for sure- youre going to wish your couch was microfiber when your little monkey turns 2 and wipes her chocolate fingers all over it :)

Adam and Christine said...

Congrats. I would go with Zack's choice. I have friends who have microfiber and hate it. They say it stains a lot from the kids.

I don't know how you didn't get first place - so lame! Anyway, my favorite is Zack's favorite. It looks like it would hide stains well.

Chocolate microfiber, easy to wipe! when I saw the beige I could picture boogers, sticky hands etc.. all over it!
