Sofa vs couch

[Scooter's Mom]

Like Karen, I use the two interchangeably. However, I voted for sofa because when I think about it I usually refer to my set as "sofa and loveseat" not "couch and loveseat".

I voted pointless, because for me there was no difference (I'm French). Apparently, there is no difference either for native English speaking people

I did not mean the poll is pointless , and it is not because I learned there was no difference...so far.

I have one at home, the 2-seats version and bed-convertible. It does not exist anymore, and it's a pity because I wanted to buy a new slipcover as Jasmine has made a lot of damage with her claws, but it can't be bought anymore (pointless comment, I know )

I grew up calling it a Davenport but now I prefer Sofa. It sounds softer than a Couch.

I call it a couch, and it's in my living room.

You are a strange Oregonian.

Kidding kidding. I usually refer to a sofa as something formal, and a couch just a regular comfy thing you sit on. I think mom's have couches for many years, and once the kids move out they upgrade to a sofa.

Just a couple generations older.

I have one couch in my living room. Even though Casey is gone it is still "Casey's Couch".

I also grew up calling it a davenport.
