    I'm voting for the Alex II. So are you really going to purchase based on the results of this poll, or just ignore us and buy whatever you want like you usually do? :P

    Nah, I'm buying today. Alex II (about 90% certain)

    Gp for the Alex III. It has the slightly shorter skirt than the Alex II and those floor rubbing skirts in a New York Apt get dirty.

    Slip covered right? It the only way to go

    The arms on the Alexa make it too big a scale if you have a small New York Apt

    yes, slip covered. i like the look of Alex II, but the practicality of III. I think it's gonna be II

    If I have to go with a non-slip cover, I'd go with a II.

    Clearly, this is just the illusion of democracy. Flexi gets to choose the canditates and the rules.

    I like the Alexa. My sister bought a similar one a couple of months ago, same exact color with a queen sleeper for 800 and change reduced from 2000.That is the most comfortable sleeper bed I ever tried. It is soo comfortable.

    Not to change the subject or anything but if you are getting a sofabed, have your tried it? How does it compare to a Carlyle? Most anything of quality you can order anyway you want, slipcovered or not 1,2 or 3 cushions skirt to the floor or no skirt

    the sofabed feels pretty good. I did test it out in the showroom. i am impressed with this firm's quality all around.

    BrooklynJack is my new friend. I like people who agree with me. I tend to grocery shop for them, do their dishes, take out their garbage. People who don't agree with me...well, they get broken ankles. :P

    I admit, I'm a bit hurt. But not as hurt as you are.

    you do have a point (just not about the couch!)

    Huh? What did I miss? I don't think I like the Shannon.

    But I don't like these streight up and down arms either. The Alexa is too much too big to scale to New York Size. I really like, 'cause it is what I have, is slightly splayed arms, more like the Mira. I got mine from Longs Bedding on W 72nd in the city. It is slip covered and I got the upgraded mattress, well worth the price. I've had a new slipcover made since I got it. Again keep in mind that the only concern is the basic shape, number of cushions, slipcover, not slipcover, skirt or not and height of skirt are all part of the ordering process

    BrooklynJack - since you are one of the very few who I've met, this is a possibility. Can you cook? ;)

    Don't tell everyone. I prefer to have everyone think I'm helpless so that others do things for me.

    Oscar is looking forward to his new couch being delivered.
