Sleek Stylish Sofa, Great Fabric

We got the Lohja sofa in the birch white debossed microfibre. LOVE the look of the sofa - very streamlined - and the material looks like leather but soft fabric feel. Big fan of the fabric: Seven cats but no punctures or shredding.

The sofa feels very well-built; I have spent the day on it reading and been happy. It is a little on the firm side - which I prefer, but would be a consideration for those who want a sofa that is super-cushy.

We are hoping that Auberge expands the line to include an ottoman and a chaise!

Love it!!

We’ve had this couch for about a week now and it’s great! Easy set up and was delivered right inside our home. It’s held up well with our 4 pets so far (time will tell) but the cats have yet to try and scratch it. One got sick on it and it was really easy to clean up.

Amazing couch

Love this couch, and the service has been incredible

love the colour and fabric

came quickly after restock date, love the birch white colour and the fabric is super soft. couch is really comfortable. only complaint is that the modules don't stay tightly together

So far so great

So far super impressed! We have a dog and a cat - dog tracks in dirt and cat has a major scratching problem. Ordered this couch when it was on back order, and it shipped and delivered exactly when expected. The whole ordering / shipping / delivering / building steps were a breeze and very transparent. The couch looks great in our space and so far has stood up to the pets (and us!). Fits our MCM vibe without breaking the bank!

Aren sofa and ottoman

I absolutely love the couch! Very functional being able to move the ottoman to fit any configuration. The fabric is very soft and smooth but has a great leather texture look. The cushions are firm which I happen to like. Some may find it too firm however it’s already starting to soften yet remains firm enough to retain its shape. Had it for nearly a month and can’t tell I’ve sat anywhere. Now most importantly, my little kitty tried to scratch the couch twice (that I’ve seen) in the first week and her claws just slid along the fabric and since then has no interest in scratching it. Hair easily brushes off the couch with your hand though I use a Dyson fabric vacuum that keeps it spotless. I tried a red wine spill on the swatch I received and it absolutely beaded up and was gone with a quick wipe with a paper towel. So the fabric truly appears to do what it claims!! Fantastic!! There were some issues with the delivery timeline and the white glove service was fine but it definitely a notch below what I would expect, thus the 4 star rating versus 5. Would recommend for even those without little fur babies as it’s very stylish, comfortable, and is very easy to take care of

Perfect

It was easy to setup and exceeded my expectations. The fabric is so soft and is showing no signs of wear when my dog digs into it. The back is perfect for placing a remote or phone on, almost like a shelf. It is low enough to the ground that my large sized dog can just step onto it, we appreciated this since he is getting older and loves to cuddle. I got deep blue which looks great in person. I only wish there would have been more unique colour options like green, yellow, red, purple, or even some patterns.

Everything I ever wanted in a couch

Was skeptical about ordering a sofa online and not tying it first but after the reviews I did it and am not dissapointed! I ordered the three seater and ottoman rauma and once I got it realized I wanted another armless to make it a proper sectional. Called and spoke to a manager and they gave me a great price close to the sale priceI originally had for the extra piece. It was back ordered for a few months but once in stock delivery was a breeze and putting together is easy. This couch is better than I could have expected, very wide seating especially if you like to lie down on it and have a big dog that takes up space, so much room! It's microfiber so you can see paw marks but a quick vacuum and it looks like new. Highly recommend especially if you often cuddle on it with a big dog! Added pics of the original three seater for reference, the rest are with the extra piece to make it a four seater plus ottoman. If you want a true sectional get the 4 seater.

Love it!!

At first I was very hesitant to buy couches online without trying when already had hard time liking any at a store. But I love them. Its soft and love the fact i can place them any way i want. The sitting area is firm but comfy. I recommand this 100% . Let just hope it stays nice like this for few years.

Very Happy

I LOVE my new couch!! The chaise and the couch in general are my favourite places to sit in the house. The deep blue is a beautiful shade, and the whole process for ordering and delivering was easy. And the customer service was excellent--I needed a price adjustment and it was done quickly and pleasantly.

Cat's best friend

Rauma was a great purchase.
I have a big cat (10kg/22lbs) that would easily destroy any open fabric with his claws, but this fabric is incredible to avoid that. More than 1 month with the sofa and not once I saw him scratching it.

Nice sofa

I am happy with my recent purchase of a couch from Auberge Designs, which has proved to be pet and kid friendly.
The couch's design prevented my cat from scratching it, and its fabric did not trap her hair. I also discovered that spilled coffee and wine are effortlessly cleaned, though chocolate stains required extra effort.
The Aren couch has a stylish look. We bought the harbor grey color which has a light grey appearance, almost like white, with a slightly bluish tone because of the fabric.
Although I am unsure about the couch's durability, so far, I have been impressed with its quality, texture, and appearance, and its size fits perfectly in my room.
In addition to the couch's excellent quality, I was impressed by Auberge Designs' exceptional customer service throughout the ordering and delivery process.
The couch arrived on time and was carefully packaged to ensure it arrived in perfect condition.
I highly recommend this couch to everyone, even if you do not have small children or pets, as it is durable and makes life easier by eliminating the needs for constant and intense cleaning.

Great product, terrible shipping

I purchased the Kemi and really like the look and feel of the couch. With three big dogs I need furniture that is scratch resistant. The couch is very comfortable and the colour is consistent with the site photo.

The ordering process went smoothly. Delivery was another matter entirely. My tracking number indicated my couch would arrive on Friday. I arranged for my old couch to be removed and ensured I’d be home to receive the delivery. Got a call Friday morning from the freight carrier to arrange delivery for Monday. Not ideal but ok. Then on Monday my couch arrives at which point I’m told they won’t do threshold delivery. They left my couch sitting on my front step. As a single person I then had to leave it sit outside until I could arrange for someone to help me haul it in. The box arrived beat up and after unpacking it, I discovered a scratch in the fabric. I contacted Auberge customer service but have yet to receive a response.

I think their furniture offerings are very nice but my delivery experience was subpar.

Hi Lisa,

We are glad to hear you are happy with your sofa, but we are sorry you had a negative delivery experience with one of our delivery carriers. For our Extended Service Area deliveries we do utilizes carriers like FedEx Freight which will call you in advance to confirm your delivery day instead of potentially delivering when no one is home, so the final delivery day can vary slightly from the tracking information.

In regards to them not bringing your sofa inside your home, unfortunately this is a limitation of any of our Extended Service Area deliveries, but we do specify within our postal code validator and on our Shipping and Delivery page that the Threshold Delivery option only includes delivery to your doorstep, garage, or lobby of a condo building, but it does not include in-home delivery. We apologize for any confusion in this regards.

Great sofa

Great sofa , so comfortable and looks beautiful and best of all the cats are not scratching it . My only point for improvement would be communication on how long it takes to deliver the sofa , other than that amazing product

So far so good.

It is very hard to purchase online. I would call the material colour more silver due to the material type giving it a shimmer. So far my cats (2) have not bothered at all with trying their nails on it which is a surprise and I’m very happy about this. Assembling was super easy, the snap together pieces to hold the couch part to the chaise seems quite flimsy, and I was worried that it would easily come apart with use. This has not been the case so far. Cushions are very hard, which I read in other reviews, but I wanted that so it softens as we use it. I really like the material is full coverage on the cushions so they can also be turned. Delivery was easy, picked a day and time, then received link to track the delivery. Not sure if it was just that day, but the delivery time kept getting later and later. I was actually going to step out for coffee as the delivery time was over an hour away, and the doorbell rang.

Love my Salo Sofa and Chair

My dog sheds horribly. It used to take me an hour to vacuum my old couch, now it’s 10 minutes. The dog hair comes off easily and any spills wipe of no problem

Great sofa! Lots of compliments. A tad harder than our old one so just getting used to it.

So happy!! 😃❤️

I very sceptical that our new couches would withstand our two cats scratching. However just after one hour of having them I caught my cat scratching and was so happy to see there was zero damage. The couches are beautiful, and comfortable. The material is soft to touch. Ordering it was a breeze and so was booking our delivery. The delivery guys were on time, and professional. As you can see from my video….I was so surprised and happy. 😃

Hi Kiyomi, Thank you for your glowing review! We love that you were able to catch your furry friend in the act of trying to scratch your new sofa!

It's worth noting that the tiny fibers or 'pile' that stick up from the base of the fabric can be disrupted when a pet scratches at the fabric (in the same way the fibers on a high pile carpet are disrupted when you walk across it), but these are not permanent and will go away by lightly massaging the affected area and allowing the fibers to relax and return to their original orientation.

Great Sofa

I purchased the Rauma 4 seater + ottoman and then added an extra seat to make a larger sectional. The sofa is a very generous size and is the place for the entire family to lounge. The fabric is very soft and is holding up so far to cats and children. My only complaint was that it was rather tricky to connect so many pieces and not all have lined up perfectly.

A Jewel in my Family Room

I was looking to replace a worn out loveseat and came across this beautiful Deep Blue Salo Loveseat. It was a little daunting to buy a piece of furniture online, but the look and pet-proof features convinced me to take a chance. Delivery was quick and courteous. I absolutely love everything about it and can finally relax when Milo goes on it! What a stylish addition to my family room that I will surely enjoy for many years to come.

Great Sofa - Unusual Delivery

Sofa is consistent to its picture online, firm and easy to assemble. The delivery was a big surprise for me, I live in an apartment and by the time the sofa was being delivered I found that they would not help me put inside the building up to my door, the person said their delivery would be complete leaving the item on the sidewalk. Since I was by myself, the deliveryman helped me to put inside the lobby, but he made very clear this was not part of his job. Being a loveseat, I was able to slowly move the item to the elevator and into my house, but I don't know how I would manage that in case I had opted for a bigger sofa.

Great Buy

We bought this on Black Friday to replace our dying couch that our cats have been slowly killing. At one point they had gotten under the bottoms and started making lil houses in the mesh. Also the sides had been clawed and leaving it not so pleasing to look at when we have guests over.

We like the Hanko because its well designed to fit both left and right layouts, scratch resistant, and the material is very comfy. It holds heat well where I can comfortably nap with our cats. They love it and so far all the materials are holding up.

Sofa’s great for family cuddles (including dog)

Although firmer than expected, this sofa softens with pillows and is such a great size: with plenty of room for 3 adults. The shape works well (and looks fantastic) in our space and the material is easy to keep clean. Our dog loves being on (and under) the sofa… which works well, since the entire underside is upholstered. And no claw pulls! Incredible (and soft) material finish. We did notice some of the stitching on the backrest has a defect (looped thread not sewn properly) but we’ve just contacted Auberge and hope they’ll have an easy fix. We did have a delivery delay but customer service helped us out, so we feel pretty good about the stitching issue receiving a satisfactory resolution, as well. Other than that stitching blip, the sofa seems great quality, so far.

Great couch

It's always scary buying something online when you haven't seen it in person or sat on it. However, our fears were calmed when we unpacked the Salo couch. It is very comfortable, easy to assemble, arrived quickly.
Our cat does scratch it with her long sharp claws, fortunately there are no marks so far! Very pleased with our purchase. Got the pacific blue and it is beautiful.
