My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Hello :-) Love the chesterfield sofa, how comfortable is it?

12 years ago
I was thinking about purchasing one but wasn't sure how comfortable it would be considering the low back. I'm pretty short thou, 5'3" if that matters :-)

    Hi - the sofa is super comfortable. Having the lower back usually doesn't effect us. I think because it is reasonably deep and the seat is cushy, the back sits just below your shoulders. Sometimes I will prop a pillow on top of the back when I want to lean back while watching a movie. I'm about 5'5" for reference. The best part is that it's also a queen sleeper!
