(Side note: I have another pet-owning pal who swears microfiber is a pet-hair magnet, so be sure to test a swatch before you make a major purchase.)
Anyway, due to a debacle involving a move to Brooklyn and an undersized doorframe, I ended up having to give my microfiber couch away. I was devastated because the couch was barely two years old and I didn't have the means to buy a new, correctly proportioned microfiber sofa. I ended up with an inexpensive sofa from Ikea, and while it is perfectly comfy, it is like an ionized nucleus of pet hair. The fur collects and clumps and refuses to budge, Anti-Fluff Glove be damned. So when I heard about the new Sure Fit Pet Cover, I couldn't wait to give it a shot.
Sure Fit's Quilted Soft Suede Pet Cover comes in a variety of sizes for couches, loveseats and chairs (and at $29.99 - $49.99, it is way cheaper than buying a new sofa).
The good news: much like my microfiber couch, the suede does its job and repels pet hair – even the fur that stuck to the suede was easy to manually remove.
The bad news: it's still a couch cover. The quilted design and color selections (taupe or chocolate) leave much to be desired, and I daresay it's as unattractive as gobs of pet hair.
I give Sure Fit Quilted Soft Suede Pet Cover 9/10 for functionality, and 5/10 for looks. As soon as they release a non-quilted version in a wider assortment of colors, I will wholeheartedly recommend it!
