I think furniture buying philosophy can be broken up into thee branches: 1. Buying quality. Your 3k will only go so far when you do this. Buy one piece at a time. 2. buying "good enough for now" you say you have family. Young kids and a new expensive couch is a good way to get ulcers. 3. Oh look! Aunt Mildred died/is downsizing A great way to pick up nice stuff. just don't look like a vulture while you do it. I'd suggest you go with number 2 to start. You go to a well reviewed mass market furniture store (such as Bob's Discount Furniture if you are around CT) and get several rooms of furniture for under that 3k. OR Splurge on a nice hardwood dining room table and then get your couches from the cheaper place. DON'T get a super expensive couch. I did that and it's a heart breaker. If you have kids, It's a ulcer-fest.

There's also the pricier Fairhaven furniture. Yeah the ads are tacky, but they really do have some great furniture  . Ikea is also fine if you can stand the smell of Swedish meatballs, I've only been to one but I assume they all smell like that.

Duck and Cover posted:http://www.yelp.com/biz/bobs-discount-furniture-southington oh yeah looking good. Obviously you are Swedish and took my meatball comment very personally. For that, I'm sorry. I also notice a lot of good comments in those links your provided. I'm sorry you and your people were assaulted by popcorn at some point in your life and I hope you can put it behind you and move on. I'm sorry My suggestion of Bob's Discount Furniture triggered you so horribly. Please accept my humble apologies. I also never said it was Quality. I said it was "Good enough for now." The bob o'pedic rocks though.
