    Default Would You Take a Free but Ugly Couch For Your Basement?

    I am thinking absolutely yes, but here is the backstory. My mom just moved and can't use a fairly new in excellent condition probably high quality couch. It's definitely not my style but it's big and comfortable. We won't be able to do our basement furniture wise for another year or two. It's a light tan leather somewhat circular sectional.

    Yep, there's decent slipcovers out there. eta- maybe not for your articular couch but in general, yes.

    I am sure you will have no problem giving it away when you are done with it.

    Yep! Slip covers, new throw pillows...it can be made less ugly. Comfy and free seal the deal for me.

    Since you know where it came from and that it's clean I would happily take it.

    Big and comfy, yes! Our media room couch is always covered in pillows and blankets so you can barely see our couch anyway.

    Most definitely, especially since you know where it came from and it's condition.
