Stylemaster Alexandria Furniture Throw, Love SEAT, Burgundy

This does not fit my couch or love seat...

There are several reasons I like this furniture throw: it was affordable, comes in nice colors, and the fabric is a cotton blend that doesn't make me break out in hives. The furniture covers that hug your sofa, loveseat, or chair are ones I am allergic to even though they look super spiff.The mocha is about the color of light brown sugar and is neutral enough to go with a lot of colors found in most living rooms. The pattern has a real regal look to it and even the hubster thought it looked pretty classy. As the item description shows, the throw doesn't go all the way down the back of the sofa, and we kept trying to tuck it in so it wouldn't move around a lot - which happens pretty easily with leather. Our solution was to purchase another one and sew it to the first one. I trimmed off the excess, hemmed it nicely, and now there's plenty to tuck under the arm rests and behind the cushions. It still moves a little, but nothing's perfect in life so we just deal with it and tuck-tuck-tuck when necessary.The fabric is light, but it's not light a bed sheet. It's dense enough to buffer the coldness of the couch seats, and it feels nice as well. This easily fits into a standard washer and dryer. No more hassles of getting the couch cover to a laundromat and using a huge washer.I'd buy more of these if there were more colors available!

I like the shiny nearly boudoirish, jacquard fabric which is much much cheaper than yard goods from a fabric store or multiple king sheets.This is 1/2 a cover. It only covers one side.And they slide right off as soon as someone sits on them.I got mine for half price, so bought 2 each for sofa and love seat. (Love seat size for a chair).I am desperate for furniture covers. Canvas covers are the best but cost a lot.My furniture is awful. But when I get new I have to use covers too. I have 3 dogs and I spill coffee professionally.I will sew, tie, pin, them together somehow. I will use them as raw material to make covers. You cannot buy fabric this wide.You could make curtains out of all this fabric using curtain clips on rods. Or just hang them over a rod because they are long.I might sew on elastic bands on the bottom to hook under chair legs to stop them sliding off.I had to retire due to covid so I have time. And coffee.

I ordered two of these for our love seats and they arrived very quickly. However, quick delivery is the only positive note. First of all, they are way too small. I specifically ordered the covers for sofas instead of love seats to ensure a good fit. The width of the covers is insufficient to drape far enough over the back of the sofa to stay in place when someone sits and cover the front of the sofa. This means that the cover is always falling down or riding up exposing the sofa underneath. Which leads me to the second issue, they are made of a slippery fabric. The fabric is smooth/soft which also causes it to slip out out of pace. Finally the fabric is constantly getting snagged and pulls and they even arrived with many threads hanging off. All of these issues together, lead to a very sloppy look. I will be looking into returning them.Issues:1) Too small2) Too slick/slippery3) Poor quality fabric that pulls has loose threads.

Update: I stick with everything I said in the previous review -- there probably isn't a piece of furniture out there that this "large sofa" sized cover actually fits. I lived with just one of these covers for quite a while until I finally got around to buying another of the same size.That did the trick.What I am covering is an old sleeper sofa, and I had the idea that if I put one of the covers over the back and tucked it around the back cushions, I could put one of the other covers over the seat cushions and tuck them in as well. Then, when I need to pull out the bed, I can just remove one cover.It was a good idea! Now that I have two, independent covers on the couch, amazingly, the back does not slip out of place and fall down, and the cover on the seats is also easy to tidy up so the couch looks neat again. There is still a ton of material at each end of the couch, but with a throw like this, I am not expecting it to look professionally recovered.Bonus round for this weird but ultimately functional cover is it washes and dries well, with no wrinkles, and it's even easy to use a pet hair roller on it for spots of hair when the cat is shedding.It's still an inexpensive, weirdly-patterned (stripes and leafy swirlies), mildly 70s throw, but what it lacks in class, it has made up for in (eventual) functionality, price, and new level of satisfaction since my application of two of them to the problem.*****Previous review follows:Other reviewers were right - this cover is a really odd size. I got what seemed to be the largest one, and while it is certainly long enough to cover my garage sale sleeper sofa side to side, the width, or the depth, or... whatever you would call it is completely wrong. It covers the couch front to back just from the very top of the couch to barely just above the floor. Luckily, I guess, my couch is against a wall. This wouldn't even begin to be adequate to cover a freestanding couch.I toyed for a moment with the idea of cutting the unwieldy piece of fabric in half lengthwise and then draping the two pieces over the couch the other direction to get more coverage, but I don't have a working sewing machine, and once I cut it, there would always be either a gap where the two pieces folded over or a seam in the middle of the couch were I able to see the pieces together. Plus, then the pattern wouldn't be contiguous.The fabric itself is also nothing like I imagined it would be. I imagined actually more of a fleecy polyester, like those cheap blankets one finds in grocery stores around the holidays (which I like). This is akin to those thin, ribbed, polyester bedspreads that were briefly the rage of Sears catalog shoppers in the late 70s. The fabric feels just like the pea soup green ribbed bedspread I had on my bed when I was a kid. At least this, however, has some sort of flowery pattern to break up the monotony of the ribbing.I am happy with the price, as I could not get a fabric or a throw of this quantity for so little. I will keep it, as I have already washed it. With a little tugging and tucking after use and liberal application of distracting objects like throws and random stuffed animals, it does look a heck of a lot better than the washed-out, multicolored, rough-textured couch underneath. I love the burgundy color, which is exactly what I wanted, at least. Now I suppose I should arise from my initial test lounge on the couch to take a photo.Pros: cheap, washes and dries easily, nice colorCons: really weird size, 70s flashbacks
