Furniture For The Rough And Tumble Crowd By Nutmeg101 on Nov 03, 2008 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

I have 2 kids, 3 dogs, a cat and a husband. My furniture MUST be durable, and preferrably washable. We searched for the right loveseat for our playroom/den and finally found this at Ikea. We were able to choose from several slip covers to get the perfect look for our space. We chose denim. The cover comes off and can be washed, thank goodness. I am looking forward to purchasing a spare cover so i can change up the look when i get bored.

My husband and i could not believe how easy this was to put together. I was having a hard time imagining assembling a loveseat, but it was a breeze. It took us under half an hour to have it totally put together, cover included. It is also surprisingly comfortable.

This loveseat has a low back and arms, which is perfect for us since our almost 3 year old LOVES to climb. i don't worry about her using it as her personal jungle gym.

The only downside is that it is LIGHT. We have hardwood floors, so when we sat in the floor and leaned back on the couch, it slides away from us. We bought little stick on grippy feet for it, and that solved the problem. If it is on carpet, it may not slide as easily.
