Recommendation for a Garage Sofa

I've been spending a lot of time in my home workshop (Not the showroom) working on a project and I was thinking of buying a garage sofa that is comfortable, durable, uses metal (chrome is okay) for a frame with open space on the bottom to keep the floor clean and minimize little critter habitat.

Color is not important but my dog Diesel has to be comfortable on it and relaxing enough for my kids/wife to sit on when they visit me. Any ideas or suggestions?

Metal futon? easy maintenance, space underneath, dog friendly, kids would like it, wife may want to add two pillows to make it look pretty. :biggrin Cheap and simple too, not much room for critters unless they dig into the padding which can be said for everything except a park bench.

Go with this $899 Ikea leather; quality and feel of leather is very high

Wipes clean; kids can drink, eat; dog can nap

Its styling is after Mies Baracelona chair.

Has optional chrome base.

See my trophy room pics; its look better than Ikea link
