These couches are hostile furnishings for the home. Designed with a center console that acts as a physical barrier between you and The Wife™. Complete with cup holders, motorized reclining action, and a storage compartment where you can keep your Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition collection.
There is no space on this couch for any form of physical intimacy.
Yeah, but when you go from “reclined” mode to “so far back your feet are above your head like in a dentist’s chair” mode, you start to feel like these boomers are onto something.
I'm convinced you only get this kind of innovation through decades of neglect. Lazy boy is in the business of selling you chairs that make you feel like you're back in the womb.
That’s not a couch, that’s two recliners glued together.
Under capitalism there is endless innovation, it is a constantly evolving material continuum where all forms and functions exist in infinite combination, such that all manor of objects exist for even the most esoteric desires. In this endless realm of possibility a lay person may see only two recliners, while the ever scheming mind of the capitalist sees a new and alluring product. In the grand tradition of the Native Americans before him, the capitalist leaves no peace of the "animal" unused, gluing two underperforming reclining chairs together in a fever pitched moment of true innovative expression, to the wonder and amazement of droves of consumers. A feat yet to be accomplished in the desolate streets of Moscow.
something something foucalt's boomerang for hostile architecture
Patriarchy manifest as home decor. Its social relations manifest in the realm of the real to reinforce it's rules through luxurious relaxation. The "we sleep in separate beds and it saved our marriage" of "love seats". There is a deep irony here that love seat is the form designation given to this ritual torture device.
Boy oh boy if you think couches are a barrier to intimacy then try having kids.
Lol comrade I mod the parenting common, I know all to well.
After four kids the SUVs of couches start to look pretty fucking good. This little H3 is trash though.
dang me and my girl are planning but we also are very 
im kinda hoping we can find a way lol
this is a couch for bros. youre supposed to game or sports with a bro in one of these.
But what if you want to cuddle with a bro
That's what the bed is for 
If you can fuck in a car, you can fuck on this sofa
If you can fuck in a car, you can fuck this sofa.
If your the kind of guy who fucks in a car, you can't afford these couches, nor would you want to, far better couches for fucking on. This couch was designed by sexless foot ball watchers. They were designed for kings of queens. For Raymonds who everyone loves. There is no big bang theory in this house. Just desperate house wives living on love island, an ocean and two cup holders between them and their spouse.

This is great poetry 
even works as a site tagline.
If your the kind of guy who fucks in a car, you can't afford these couches, nor would you want to,
DON'T PRESUME MY FINANCIAL STATUS BECAUSE I LIKE FUCKING IN CARS 
But you wont
This is going to blow your mind but you can get one of these where it extends out into a full couch
I like how there's the special seat that's separate from the rest
That is "the good chair"
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
That's dads seat. Don't mess with it.
I just wanted to sit in my seat, drink my Coors lite, and watch the gaaaaaaaaame
if the second seat from the right and the second from the left recline and push their leg rests out at the same time, will they smash into each other and break and/or flip the whole couch over backwards?
Look you can't have fun without a little danger
do you think we should got back to the Ottomans? the dreaded turk hates recliners
This is for those John and Kate + 8 "families".
man i really just want a nice couch
not having a couch sucks
I'm convinced that there's no such thing as a nice couch any more. I have 2 'nice' couches that are the most uncomfortable things to sit on. We spent a lot of money on them but after less than a year they just turned to crap. If you find something nice, let me know where.
Probably gotta' thrift and maybe reupholster an old couch at this point. Or maybe there's some business/hotel ones that are still built to last and cost a lot.
So comfy looking though
They are very comfy. They have to be to fill the void left by absence of love in your fifty year marriage.
These couches are bourgeois decadence
yeah the most boring people I know have these.
This is exactly it. People who watch the local news at five and the evening news at six. People who only buy an Xbox for FIFA. People who have kids but can't remember their birthdays. People who have no passions about anything.
I went to a furniture clearance store ages ago that was just wall to wall these. It was super funny.
Apart from the Wife™ separator though, it does look really soft
It is the devils bargain. You only get this level of comfort by betting physically separated from your partner. Innovation in isolation.
I have one of these without the Wife Separator, and 100% bougie as hell but really comfy and suitable for snuggling as long as you co-ordinate the recline. Do not attempt Advanced Snuggling (or leaping up to answer the door) with the recliner fully out as it will tip over.
These do suck for cuddling but they're good for movie night with pizza.
It's not for intimacy, it's not even really a couch, just two comfy movie watching chairs stuck together.
Just looking at these give me back pain
Only people I know who own these have been insufferable
That looks rad. Would buy 10/10
i actually really like these, let me recline that baby and sleep halfway sprawled across the center divider ITS MY RIGHT
