My inlaws have a leather sectional that they bought on a whim at JC Penney a few years ago. I was skeptical - it was less than $2000 for a huge leather sectional, and quite frankly, I don't tend to think of JCP as a place to buy high-end anything, let alone leather furniture. But that sectional is holding up great. It gets very hard use (it is their main TV-watching sofa and their daughter and her 2 rambunctious little boys are currently living with them) and still looks as good today as it did when they bought it.

I would also think that you could probably return it if you didn't like it -- JCP tends to have a great return policy.

Do you have a local store that might have it on the floor for you to see? Some of our local JCP's have a furniture section.

Please do post a review if you end up getting it -- I need some new sofas bad and would love a sleeper -- that one looks very appealing for the price!

I like all the pieces in that group.
