Kira Butler's Profile

I love my Kivik. I've had it for two years now: originally, I bought it as a loveseat because that's all I could fit into my ultra-tiny apartment, but after moving this July to a bigger space, I expanded the sofa with a chaise extension and an ottoman.

I find the cushions require weekly flipping to maintain equally dispersed squashiness, and I treat the armrests like a pillow-covered harem (they're a little low if you like to lie down. I like the added head-support of a few pillows to watch tv.)

Otherwise, the seats are wide and the backrests are lovely to sink into.

It was a great purchase for the price value, though I'm sure in a couple of years I'll opt for something similar in style, but a little more higher end in material construction. Ikea couches tend to lose their stuffing after a few years.
