weird specific furniture recommendation?

YoursTruly · August 2015

Here's what I need:

a small sofa
that is not shitty or dumb looking
that is eco friendly in the sense that it doesn't have those crazy carcinogen flame retardants and such
that is significantly nicer than the Ikea fold-out love seat
BUT that is also not ludicrously expensive
That is NOT a futon
BUT THAT PULLS OUT INTO A SLEEPER

can anyone help?

smallish size
nice and cool
not too fancy
sleeper sofa
that I can get in the middle of nowhere out here or that will ship to me?? Guess I could drive to Boston

thanks bros

We just got a daybed from a local vintage store that was made by Dania. Their new stuff seems a little spendy though: http://www.daniafurniture.com/living/sleepers

I think I googled "sleeper sofa eco friendly" or something. ;)

YoursTruly · August 2015

Those Dania ones look great!!! No New England stores though...

poor me

i found this place in Boston that sells moderately affordable eco friendly reasonably attractive stuff.
next challenge is renting a truck and driving there
good lord this earthly life is an unending trial of heartbreak, alas

Oh hey, I think Zappos does a service kind of like this? Or at least they used to. They would even look for things that Zappos doesn't sell.

Hey bros here is maybe an easier question; what is some good durable outside furniture that looks cool? Specifically like a table and chairs you could eat meals at out in the yard. That won't get ruined by rain. But that isn't a shitty fratty picnic table.

NO:
- fratty picnic tables
- wrought iron
- plastic

?

Also lets vote: do you prefer a fire pit or a chiminea? I am on the fence

speaking of fences, we watched YouTube videos of how to build a picket fence for about 2 hours the other night. It's surprisingly interesting

Definitely prefer a fire pit to sit around and poke at. We have a chiminea on our little porch though and it's nice, even though we've only used it 3 times.

What about aluminum furniture? We have a couple of aluminum chairs outside and they do fine in the rain/sun/wind.

I think ours are these: I think ours are these: http://www.modaseating.com/Aluminum-Slat-Stacking-Arm-Chair_p5020-LHSU.html?gclid=CjwKEAjwrpGuBRCkqeXpn-rt5hsSJAC9rxrPWRJLyoX8HkrYDHjiZNQjELVRO5IPHa9HQyNpBuQQ_BoCJObw_wcB
