OH MY WORD, FRIENDS! I know I’m totally internet shouting, but have you heard that the Patriots won the Super Bowl? Because if not, let me tell you, WE WON!!!!! I’m really, REALLY, really excited! Can you tell? 😉 And, gotta love that Brady gave Butler his MVP truck!
After only a month, we noticed that the fabric was piling in a couple spots. We kept an eye on it, and before long, the fabric was piling all over the place. It was really strange! It started as a really soft microfiber and ended up rough and bumpy. I’ve never seen or heard of microfiber doing that before.
We went back to Haverty’s and they let us exchange the couch. I’ll spare you all the details, but our exchange didn’t go as planned and last fall we ended up starting from scratch. Our sales associate was super helpful and kind through the entire process. The manager profusely apologized for our troubles and gave us a significant discount toward whatever replacement couch we wanted.
Haverty’s had just come out with the Corey sectional and we loved it! It is a higher quality, slightly larger version of the Amalfi couch we originally purchased. I love that it’s the same style, just better fabric and more stuffed. It’s super comfy! We decided to go with the Corey sectional in the Pearl color. Because of the discount, we got it for the same sale price we had paid for the Amalfi. Yay!
It was delivered last week and so far it is wonderful! There is such a marked difference in the quality! We are incredibly thankful that Haverty’s worked with us so well and really strived to correct the problem. We love the new sectional and think it’s going to work out wonderfully!
(The colors are weird in this picture because it’s from my phone, but it’s the only way I could get the entire couch into the picture. I really need a wide angle lens!)
Just found you doing a search for the Corey Sectional. So glad you like it! We just ordered ours yesterday!
I am just seeing this comment, not sure why! So sorry! How has your couch held up? I hope it’s working out for you! I’m doing an update on the Corey sectional tomorrow and would love to hear how yours is holding up!
Hey there,
I was wondering how the Corey sectional is workin out for you? It seems you’ve had it for over a year now. My boyfriend and I are thinking of purchasing this sectional for our home, and want some honest opinions about it. Thanks!
Hey, Tori! Funny, I’ve recently been asked the same question about the Corey sectional a couple times. I’m going to do a whole update post on it tomorrow including recent pics for you so you can see how it’s worn. Check back tomorrow! Off to fold the laundry on the couch so I can snap some new photos… Ha! 🙂
Hi I bought the Cory sectional and started a search because uggggg I am just shocked of the quality of this sofa. I love the look and it is so comfortable but it is making a broken noise on the arm and all of the cushions are balling up it looks horrible and they have replaced one and the other 2 are coming tomorrow I am just wandering if I should just give up and demand another one
Ugh, I’m so sorry you are having trouble with it, too! I demanded a new couch after having the Amalfi (it’s even worse than the Corey!) so when the Corey started pilling, I gave up and started using a fabric shaver on it. Works really well! Super annoying that it is so high maintenance, but I like everything else about the couch and there are no other sectionals this size and color in my price range, so the Corey it is… Here’s my post on how I get rid of the pilling. The link to the fabric shaver I use is in the post as well. Hope this helps! http://www.littlebitsofhome.com/2015/11/quick-tip-how-to-remove-fabric-pilling-from-upholstery.html
Just did an update post for you today with my honest review of the Corey sectional. Hope it helps! http://www.littlebitsofhome.com/2016/06/havertys-corey-sectional-update-review.html
I was interested in knowing if when you got the Corey at first was it really firm? Did it take a while to break in and become soft or would you say this is a more firm couch?
Hmm, I don’t remember it being super stiff when we first got it. The Amalfi was, but the Corey has been super comfy from day one! To us, it’s the perfect thickness–not stiff at all, super cozy, but not so cushy that you have to fluff the cushions to keep them from drooping. It holds its shape really well. Hope that helps!
We just got the same exact couch but in the willow color but we are have trouble with wall color that goes with it. We also previously had the Amalfi and loved it. Excellent quality!
That’s awesome! Hope you love it!
