A "must have" item of furniture in any living room is a couch which is a very decorative and stylish and at the same time very functional. Known by various names like sofa, sette, lounge, chesterfield or davenport, a couch is used for for the comfortable seating of more than one person. The couch is today invariably linked to both domestic family life and television culture. It is often positioned in front of the television set in a living room and for siesta. In-fact, a person who spends a lot of time watching the television, is called a couch potato. Not only a couch is a decorative piece of furniture but it is also very functional.
