I've had the same chairs in my living room for at least 10 years.  I love them.  They are broken in, soft and comfortable.  But now they are a little too broken in.  With three small dogs in the house now, these chairs have become the favorite resting spot during the day probably because of the fact that they are soft and comfortable.  It's time to move on, and my husband is requesting a replacement that is not so...well, floral.  I'm looking at chairs in interesting shapes that will be easy to slipcover but aren't so expensive if the dogs do sit on them uncovered.  We have reached no consensus as of yet, but these were in the first round.
