Using a slipcover on your sofa is a great idea for many reasons, wear and tear chief among them. Imagine a world in which you needn't worry about your child's ice cream cone or your dog's shaggy hair — neither poses a threat to your gorgeous, thousand-dollar sofa because any stray splotches and dirty fur will fall onto a removable and washable cover rather than a seemingly impossible-to-clean cushion.
Sounds pretty great to me, and it's my job to suss out the best couches and sofas on the internet. I can shop around all day, but still, the convenience of a cover could very easily outrank even the most stylish loveseats and three-seaters.
