Tuesday my sister-in-law and I checked out some furniture stores with my mom. We need a new sleeper couch and a new driekwartbed (‘three quarter bed’, 74″ x 42″) for my mom’s new digs. Yes, it’s still a long time before my mom will move, but we wanted to help since it will be a while (or quite a while) before we make it back out here. We found a nice bed at the Tafelberg Furnishers store, but the sleeper couch offerings fell short. All of them ugly and very uncomfortable to sit on! We found a very nice one at a direct sales sleeper couch manufacturer in an industrial area on the way back to Stellenbosch.
