That's an important aspect of sofa's for old retired folks like me. Several months ago we purchased a new sofa, recliners and an easy chair. I got caught performing a comfort test before we signed the deal.
My mother would've come along and smacked you for having your shoes on the furniture!
My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start. So far today, I have finished two bags of M&Ms and a chocolate cake. I feel better already!
