Will my sofa fit through my living room door?

see if there is anything like it on their site? that would give everyone a good idea then.

Actually its "if you smoke & drink". Around 90% of people who die in upholstery based fires (mainly from the toxic smoke) are three times over the drink drive limit. Sober smokers have no problem.

Oh yes they do.

really the only way to find out is try.

Of course they do! They're sober ferchrissake!

/may not be 100% of sober

nice label.

The market for non fire-resistant secondhand upholstered furniture is non existent.

Other stuff can be sold quite easily in my experience. We did have a problem getting it out of the house as we'd fitted a dado in the hallway since buying the furniture. This prevented the front door opening quite so wide. In the end we just had to take the legs off the sofa.

My sis had to remove her double glazed front window when she bought a large sofa and promptly smashed it when trying to re-fit it!

I wish that sofa companies would put something like "The tufty sofa will fit through a 7'x3' opening" or similar so that you know whether it'll fit before buying. It'd save everyone a lot of time.

My friend was driving along in his Mini-Metro and dropped a cigarette between his legs which then started to smoke profusely . Boy, did he stop quickly!

(Funnily enough that was the second time he set light to his own car while driving)

Super, smashing, lovely, great. Lookat what you coulda won. A speedboat. Don't worry, have a bendy bully instead.

You think a sofa is a problem? Try an overstrung upright piano which has to go round a tight corner. After doing that (sucessfully) anything's easy.

All you had to do was open the top and chuck some Valium inside.... ;-)

I'm sure you know what you're talking about ... if you could share with the rest of us it might have been worth your while typing it.

Surely Mary would just have made it some camomile tea?

Hmm... didn't think it was that obtuse - Dave got it.

Try moving a 1930's upright piano downstairs with 2 people.

"Laurel and Hardy" doesn't come into it .. ;-)

P.

Perhaps you just don't understand pianos. Would you like to talk about it?

We had to wind a steel spiral staircase through a doorway once - I'll never be daunted by a sofa again after that.....

When my boyfriend moved in, with his upright piano, I was very glad I had big patio doors, the garage was behind the side passage and I had no side extension.

It all went easily!

My next-door neighbours may have an 'interesting' time if they have bulky stuff to move in/out. Their 'garage'[1] is to the side of the house, completely blocking the side passage and the front doorstep is high and insecure.
