Sweet! Hope you find one you like! I like the kivik for cleaning too. Can wash the entire couch cover if needed and Etsy has a bunch of alternatives fabric options if you want to get a specific fabric. I got a velvety one for my last kivik before I broke down and bought the new one. Again, the old kivik would have lasted longer if I wasn’t in such a humid climate. But now I’ve got two couch cover options in case there’s ever a wild red wine incident or a tear. I swear I don’t work for ikea, I just really like this couch! lol

Quality for me is cushions with springs + cushion covers that can be fully removed and washed in a home washing machine + wood frame. You can find these elements in a variety of places, but you have to look at all of the construction details of the couch in detail. IKEA Kivek fit this bill for me.

I have four kids and need to buy a new sofa.
Look for a fabric modular sofa, not leather. Think tight-weave polyester / microfiber, removable and washable covers, and low-profile cushions. IKEA Kivik/Uppland or anything “family/commercial grade” I'd say

I have four kids and need to buy a new sofa.
I bought an IKEA kivik on fb marketplace 5 years ago (two cats, one dog, one toddler) and we have changed the covers up a few times and it's held up beautifully. That couch owes me nothing and it's still doing great three moves later. We even added the chaise, and we literally cannot tell which back cushion is the new one. It's the best.

Buying a quality couch that can last more than 2 years?
Just buy some used mid-level stuff like Crate & Barrel or Room & Board, then get some money out of it whenever you move. I would hold off on higher quality new stuff until you plan on being in a home for years. Avoid Ashley and similar. You could go to IKEA and try the Kivik couch. I’ve never sat on one, but have read several posts elsewhere that said they’re are reasonably comfortable and solid for what they are.
