Our two 13-year-old IKEA sofas were still structurally sound but cat-ravaged and I was desperately trying to save them from land-fill. Delighted to find that Comfort Works still produced the covers for this older model and even more delighted that the claw-proof velvet covers live up to their name. Cats have shown no interest in scratching but love sleeping on the quality fabric (and fur easy to clean off). Most of all though, the customer service was quick, friendly and highly practical as I measured my old sofas and confirmed their model (which I was unsure of). We will be back! A great experience.
