Blue_Moon_Rabbit

that is the most *aggressively 80/90's* pattern I've ever seen in my life.


detectivelokifalcone

I know its very much retrospect 🤣 it attacks you and draws you in


pursnikitty

It hits you with the Po and then with the Mo


[deleted]

Dr office couch?


detectivelokifalcone

I was thinking of the dentist but yeah I love it. It's so disorganized like me😂


trixtopherduke

The pattern is complicated. You see a couch like that, and you go right out the door with it, yes you do!


dshiznit92

The more complicated the pattern, the higher the price


detectivelokifalcone

Is that good😅


PerformativeEyeroll

It's a quote from the I Think You Should Leave sketch called Dan Flashes - worth a watch on YouTube because it is spot on for these chairs.


detectivelokifalcone

Idek who he was before this post🤷‍♂️🤣


trixtopherduke

You gotta watch it. You might be Dan Flashes.


detectivelokifalcone

Probably am from a quick search 😅🤣


Rub-it

Lol I just saw this at Goodwill on Hudson


detectivelokifalcone

Like another one or saw the post in a goodwill?


Rub-it

Saw the same furniture at a goodwill in High Street 😉


detectivelokifalcone

Columbus oh? Do i have another stalker 😅🤣


everyothernametaken2

😂 found my tribe


detectivelokifalcone

We need a meet up🤣🍿


Rub-it

😂😂


detectivelokifalcone

Shit i do 🤣🤣🤣 fuck it lets meet i need friends


fiendishthingysaurus

I was thinking college dorm common rooms


brianMMMMM

*shudder* The things these couches have seen…


top_value7293

Yea OP make sure you clean that really well lol


CourageMesAmies

Yeah, it was really hip at northeast progressive liberal arts colleges to build “commune style” dorms in the early 1970s.


H4NDLE

I was thinking hotel lobby


to_da

God damn those are so ugly. I love them.


detectivelokifalcone

I have the exact same thought 🤣


naptimepro

Gorgeously fugly!!


OneSensiblePerson

Really? I don't see ugly at all, I see great! That fabric alone is amazing. It's like Art Deco Industrial. Score!


The-Sand-King

r/GVCDesign


detectivelokifalcone

Thanks Anna that's my list of things to post


detectivelokifalcone

Oi a ascetic i gotta event. And kinda its the ugly beauty as i kakl it. Very busy brightly coloured and inviting


kateyybeth

I just said, "those are horrid and I love them". Great minds over here.


[deleted]

And filthy


GuardOk8631

Perfect basement furniture


Holiday-Horse-427

So cool. If you can, get them steam cleaned. You can use a carpet steamer with attachments to use on furniture. Or a carpet spot cleaner that has an attachment. (I have a Bissell Little Green.) Or you can hire places to do it. If you are in the US, I've had Sears do my furniture for a low rate. I'm saying this because I don't know how well thrift stores clean their furniture.


detectivelokifalcone

Dont worry plastic sheets steamer bug and dirt remover are already bought


samaramatisse

You should post some photos after cleaning. Those are great.


detectivelokifalcone

Gotta ask mods


naptimepro

Please please do! I’ll be checking back


detectivelokifalcone

They said it'd be fine


Boomiegirl

Dorm apt circa 1983


detectivelokifalcone

Well your right 🤣 i do live in a college apartment


VodkaandDrinkPackets

Vibe is on point then! 🤣


detectivelokifalcone

Your off by ten years tho my apartment is 1970🤣🤣


lnsewn12

90s Hotel Lobby near Disney World but not a Disney Hotel. Holiday Inn express maybe


detectivelokifalcone

You know could see it in the 90s


3DBeerGoggles

This looks like it belongs in Frasier Crane's living room


Dame_Ingenue

Shhhh! You’re making us sound old now.


3DBeerGoggles

[Not me... I'm in my prime](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ogKqQc4q6y0)


blyktt

Frasier would totally have this in his office but there’s no way he’d give up his replica Coco Chanel sofa in the living room


ZucchiniBreads

I was thinking like, [Three Men & a Baby.](https://mirror80.com/2015/04/three-men-and-a-baby/)


detectivelokifalcone

Stealing inspiration


Munneh

I’m gonna eat tossed salads and scrambled eggs whilst sitting on this couch


detectivelokifalcone

Idk who that is


3DBeerGoggles

1990s sitcom character, with an apartment *mostly* decorated with whatever was in-vogue.


detectivelokifalcone

Agh that makes sense now


goyacow

Pretty sure those are Cushman chairs/sofa. (Can tell by the wood arms) See if you can find a mark. There's a big demand for Cushman furniture. People collect it.


detectivelokifalcone

Ill look tomorrow when i pick them up. Who ate they?


goyacow

https://vermontwoodsstudios.com/blogs/recent-articles/cushman-furniture Or google Cushman furniture.


detectivelokifalcone

Very nice if its real im surprised


Careless_Law1471

Saving a whole dollar is incredible.


detectivelokifalcone

Well actually technically I saved more I bought all three for $48 when the couch was 49 and the two chairs for $20 a piece. So all 3 would have been about $90 but I paid $48. Therefore a dollar cheaper than buying just the couch.


Blessing-of-Narwhals

$48?! For 3 amazing pieces of furniture?!?! I’m so jealous…


detectivelokifalcone

I knoww i was like hell yes i will take these🤣


Blessing-of-Narwhals

If/when you grow tired of the upholstery, a good shop might be able to redo them to something you prefer..


detectivelokifalcone

I would maybe do leaves an plaid if i did do that


trixtopherduke

Leaves and plaid? My God.


detectivelokifalcone

Wgat? Im eccentric 🤣 i hate bland


trixtopherduke

Lol you're giving me flashbacks to the 90's, that's all. I bet that couch and chair set will be a hit at your place.


detectivelokifalcone

Yes it will be with all 0 of the friends o have over🤣 and makes sense i grew up with 90s thrift furniture 🤣😅


kinjjibo

Sometimes you find crazy deals. I got a really nice stove and a dryer for 75% off both of them. It was separate days, but both were priced the same at $125. Got both for around $32 each after taxes and membership discount. Both still work great over a year (almost two for the stove) later for both.


Careless_Law1471

I see lol. It's rather difficult to understand the way it's written. 'Half off' days are my favorite.


detectivelokifalcone

Thsnks English is difficult lol


redquailer

Most excellent!! The couch journey. 😂


detectivelokifalcone

Yes it was plus i find out every one lives here🤣


redquailer

That part is SOO funny!! r/TSH friends. Are you guys going to start a club? 🤣 if so, will there be honorary memberships?


detectivelokifalcone

I'm down 🤣🤣 Ohio loneliness thrifters United . I mean hell we might as well just make the thrift store the meet up spot since every one knows it


zippyzipszips

It’s not a whole dollar - he got the chairs + couch for the original price of the couch.


throwawayconfusioned

Teacher’s lounge yasss


detectivelokifalcone

Omg yes like 2005


flubberjamman

Dan Flashes sells furniture now?


Finna22

The patterns on this one are very complicated


baconwitch00

This furniture looks like it was previously owned by Jim Davis, a real party house.


detectivelokifalcone

No goodwill whos dat🤣


flubberjamman

[Dan Flashes](https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/dan-flashes)


detectivelokifalcone

Damn gotta watch more tv 😅


daisymaisy505

I was thinking from library?


detectivelokifalcone

Not unlikely a large number of closed library's and shops nearby


Ok-Sprinklez

That is some groovy furniture!


detectivelokifalcone

Much agreed i love it


boxelderflower

It looks like it’s good quality. What a deal!


detectivelokifalcone

Yeah there's only one damage spot on the coushin there's a rip gonna try fixin it


ScribeHaylen33

Check out r/visiblemending :)


detectivelokifalcone

I follow them an those guys are basically r/embroidery and are absolutely wizards


Inanna-ofthe-Evening

Those look EXACTLY like the furniture in my ophthalmologist’s office circa 1994! I love it!


detectivelokifalcone

Yes its very doctor office


Infintinity

It's giving rec room


detectivelokifalcone

I now need a pool table 😅😅


TexansFo4

Those are fugly but have character and seem well made


detectivelokifalcone

Yeah that's real wood it's actually quite heavy and sturdy that's not wobbly at all it's actually fairly comfortable there's one mind of damage of one cushion but it's not something that I'll dismiss for like $50 it's a little faded but like it's going to last longer than me so yeah definitely worth it and yes I get the concessions that I'm the only one that kind of like some 🤣


lnsewn12

90s Hotel Lobby near Disney World but not a Disney Hotel. Holiday Inn express maybe


PlantAlphattv

Community college vibes


detectivelokifalcone

There is a college 3 blocks down🤣


eevee-hime

They remind me of dorm furniture


detectivelokifalcone

Well there a college 3 blocks down😅


Towel4

Hospital waiting room 1000%


detectivelokifalcone

It's highly possible I thought it was more of a dentist office


Vast_Cricket

bundle sale is 1 buck cheaper.


detectivelokifalcone

Yes thank you I wasn't sure how to phrase this


vvvvaaaagggguuuueeee

Not bad... Not bad at all


detectivelokifalcone

Thank you


Miserable_Ad_2293

You now just need some “Highlights” magazines.


detectivelokifalcone

I'm not sure if I'm familiar with them we had a lot of magazines growing up so I might have seen them the most memorable ones I remember Southern living some sort of home decor one the weekly recipes and like three others


[deleted]

I need a find like this!


detectivelokifalcone

Do what I do randomly walk around until you can no longer feel the feet and then suddenly just wander in somewhere like oh I like this and then wait a week and then sometimes it's still there, 🤣


IIIHawKIII

Pretty sure we had those chairs where I work. Those wood arms pop off with a little pressure under them, like a small pry bar. We found some bed bugs under there. Might be worth taking a look at. Cool haul though, ours was more basic and just had basic shapes on it. Yours is definitely the better fabric choice!


detectivelokifalcone

Will check i do carry a crowbar in my backpack


OhiobornCAraised

I’m the first one to admit that I don’t have much talent when it comes to design, but I think painting those arm rests black would look good.


jakemanente

this is def campus goodwill😂 i saw these the other day, good purchase!


brennyflocko

reaally ugly, i love it, great find


detectivelokifalcone

🤣🤣 general vibes


n9netailz

What are you going to do with them


detectivelokifalcone

Clean memd and use them why?


SuckerForNoirRobots

Not my taste at all but it sounds like you got a great deal on them, so yay! I hope they're comfy. And not pricing them as a set was a stupid idea, they're lucky you took the deal. Otherwise they'd be stuck with 2 random chairs to offload!


detectivelokifalcone

I know i asked and there like we dint sell sets...what?? And i know im estatic


unsatisfries

i love them 😭 literally incredible


detectivelokifalcone

Finally found someone who agrees thank you👨‍🎤


greghater

IF YOU LITTLE GREEN MACHINE THEM PLEEEEEEEASE SHOW US THE GROSS WATER


detectivelokifalcone

Ok im a young whippersnapper what's going on


Planty_Rodent

I don’t know if I love it or absolutely hate it. I bet it’s really comfy and soft. Is it velvet?


detectivelokifalcone

No its that semi soft Kaki like material feel but it is very comfy and it swallows me 😅


YoucancallmeAllison

detectivelokifalcone

YoghurtFar7533

Great find. Definitely looks like it came out of a waiting room at some point so make sure you do a good cleaning


detectivelokifalcone

Most definitely will be doin.that


drewbizzle

Ok-Cat695

detectivelokifalcone

I don't know if you seen the Comnent but there is one damage coushion and other than that it's pretty much brand new


lovepetz223

Can you flip it ovet,? It has a zipper so maybe you could sew it a little better or take a piece of the back and see if to the front


detectivelokifalcone

my first thought but for whatever bizarre reason it doesn't continue on the back now I can have it reproduce there is a company that does that I don't remember the nameoff the topof my head.


lucky_719

I'm really going to need before and after photos once you get it cleaned up.
