There is an awesome new product on the market called a Couch Defender. It makes lots of sense because it simply takes up space on your couch. It folds to approximately 1 inch so it stores easily under or behind your couch. There is also a chair defender. It saves you lots of work. I used to come home and spend 30 minutes cleaning my couch before I could relax. They are pretty reasonably priced too. and free shipping.View Thread
