Medley vs Anthropologie: Who Has Better Couches?

It can be hard to find any flaws in Medley’s business. But while their standard couches usually have lead times of 8-10 weeks (not counting delivery), their wonderful Latex + Wool options often take 14+ weeks to build. That’s a long time to wait, especially when there are no brick-and-mortar stores where you can test out their couches. Their base prices are great considering the high-quality materials and craftsmanship, but choosing a higher-tier fabric and their natural Latex + Wool materials will significantly raise the sofa price. But they’ll still be cheaper than Maiden Home’s offerings. Medley’s styles are nice, but they might be a little bland, depending on your tastes.

However, the pros vastly outweigh the cons. Their plant-based Latex + Wool material options are incredible and put Medley in a class of its own. Their wood is sourced from sustainable forests, their fabrics are eco-friendly, and every aspect of their construction process considers the sustainability impact. They also use a high-quality spring system similar to 8-way hand-tied suspensions. This is top-tier craftsmanship. Their frames also come with a lifetime warranty, the cushion filling has a 10-year warranty, and the upholstery workmanship has a 5-year warranty. Add in their 30-day return policy and there’s a whole lot to like about Medley.

Anthropologie, known for its bohemian-chic clothing and home décor, doesn't disappoint when it comes to sofas. Their collection boasts a unique blend of styles, from classic to contemporary, all wrapped in luxurious fabrics like velvet and linen. They even offer performance fabrics for those who crave a worry-free lounge session. And hey, free swatches? That's a win in my book.

But here's the deal: Anthropologie sofas are an investment. While their prices might make you gasp, remember, you're getting more than just a couch – it's a statement piece that'll elevate your living space. However, their return policy can be a bit of a buzzkill, with restocking fees and limitations on furniture returns. And if you're expecting a fully customizable experience, you might be disappointed, as their options are mostly limited to fabric and color choices.

So, if you're a style-savvy shopper who values quality and unique designs, Anthropologie is worth exploring. Just be prepared to pay a premium for that boho-chic charm and factor in those return policy details before committing to your dream couch.
