Recently moved to DC and looking to buy a new sofa. Affordable ($1200 max) yet durable and comfortable. In general, which furniture stores would you all recommend?

Value city is underrated. Not super modern stuff, but cheap.

Have bought there before and quality is real low. Often the cushions aren’t flip able and get saggy after a few years.

It’s far from DC, but I found Belfort near Dulles great. They have multiple buildings and everything in the $500 range all the way to $5k, and overall really good quality and value.

Ashley Furniture has some good stuff. Couple friends have outfitted pretty much their entire houses with AF furniture and from what I've seen, it's good quality stuff.

200% just order off Amazon. You can get an excellent memory sofa for <$500 shipped next day and free returns.

I ordered a custom couch from inside weather and with a promo code was probably like $1300. So freaking comfortable.

I second West Elm for nice looking merchandise at a reasonable price. Not sure how durable it will be since my purchase is rather new.

Also check out Crate and Barrel but may be above your price range.

Yes, I have to look more into CB2.

About 800 square ft.

Thank you so much everyone! You all are amazing and I appreciate your help! I plan on going in store this week and visiting a couple of stores mentioned.

Have a great week and thanks again!

I’ve had an Ashley furniture set from Big Lots (~$700) for over 3yrs and love it. Comfortable and durable through movwa

Thank you!

Check out Bob’s discount furniture

Okay, I'll check out those places. Thank you

I got some super nice office furniture from Warehouse Showrooms in Alexandria. They mainly specialize in wood versus couches I think, but I will say they’re a lot cheaper than competitors for exact same brand. Down to earth owners too. The industrial park where they are located has a number of furniture stores of all sizes and types... you can drive around and see many options in the General Washington Drive area.
