“I love my couch. It's beautiful and functional. I love the versatility of the look (switching from sleek side to side with buttons), and the fact that I can spill anything on it and it just flows right off. I know I'll be pleased when it's time to move and it is transportable, and will be adaptable to any new space I choose to live in. I get nothing but compliments on it, and the fact that there is an electrical outlet I don't have to crawl on the floor to access just shows how much thought went into the design---which is very much appreciated.”

“Startups are hard, and Burrow has had their share of issues. With us we were supposed to have an Oct delivery but end up getting it in February. What saved them is their frequent updates and transparency about the situation with distribution vendors. In terms of the Sofa it's ok for a first try from a company not established in the furniture business. The seating is pretty straight up, meaning you can't really lounge back. I wish the back pillows fit a bit better as there are gaps that if you sit down wrong can really hurt your elbow/arm on the metal levers that stick out a little bit. The fabric protection seems to be as advertised, though it is a bit stiff. This should break in and soften over time. The magic selling point was you don't need tools to put it together, which is true. It took me 25-30min to put it together. I had thought the USB chargers would be built into the sofa itself, but rather it was was an Asian extension cord cube with a pre-mount that attaches underneath the sofa. All in all it's an OK sofa and a decent first try. However with the long shipping delays and issues, I kind of wish I just went down the street to West Elm which has a sofa that looks very similar.”

“Some basic instructions would have helped. There weren't enough screws for all the plastic washer plates, or legs for each section. The metal rods joining the the sections are pointed like a dagger, for some reason – they punctured the upholstery while aligning sections – could easily harm any child around during assembly. Rounded rods would work just as well. Metal fastening plates don't tuck all the way down, so are exposed between the cushions on backrest.”

“I ordered my Burrow well before they were actually available and stuck with the company through some early hiccups in supply chain misfortune. It was totally worth it. The couch (the longer 3-seater) arrived in four large boxes that I managed to open and assemble by myself in all of about 10 minutes. Its so clear how everything fits together and it's really easy to get things set up. I would definitely recommend having a second person to set the couch on its feet though. It's been a few months since it arrived and the couch has held up great. It has a great high-quality feel to it, and it looks like it should have cost a lot more. It's just long enough that I can lay on it comfortably (I'm 6') and take a nap (hey, this was a major factor in couch purchasing) and while the power port isnt what I originally saw in early videos, its still a really nice feature to have and being able to plug my laptop in (or a guest's phone) is handy. Its less deep as a couch than I might prefer, once the back pillows are factored in, and the arm rests are unpadded, leaving you with this hard back rest to sit against, but throw pillows handle that. I am extremely satisfied with my Burrow, overall. It is clearly well made and looks great. It's comfortable for a nap or overnight sleep (tried that a few times too). For the price, this is a fantastic couch and leaps ahead of swedish furniture stores and less pricey than the high end furniture shops that it looks like it came from.”
