You can do far better than this with a little bit of research. Also, pick a smaller but solid sectional with chaise or a larger ottoman instead of mechanical recliners which will break, or raise your budget; you're not going to get this massive a sectional of BIFL quality for less than $9,000. This sofa while it looks like a great deal isn't really BIFL material... not only do mechanical recliners tend to break, but the materials in question (what kind of fabric furniture gets damaged from water??) also wouldn't last. Also, it's modular, not a true sectional, and there's some assembly required (any assembly at all shouldn't ... anything that bolts together can fall apart) for the peanut butter cup-sized stubs that are supposed to be feet. Modulars also have a tendency to separate. Sectionals will have braces too, but one brace point for two pieces with sturdy suspension is a lot more stable than having every seat held together by braces. More on reddit.com

Not a specific recommendation, but in general, your local Costco club will typically have 1 or 2 models of power reclining sectionals in stock in the $1500-2500 range that are decent quality for the price. And if you do have any issues with it, Costco has an extremely liberal and long return policy. Plenty of "reputable" furniture manufacturers have items that look nice when they are new and are completely worn out after a year. At least with Costco, if it wears out in just a couple of years, you can take it back for a full refund. Also, something with a leather exterior will probably be a bit more stain and odor resistant than something with fabric. More on reddit.com
