Our Verdict
3 / 5 STARS

A newer brand doing cool things in the furniture space but not sure enough of the pricetag is flowing into the sofa... Quality is disappointing, expect to pay for the hip experience.

Background

Made In

"Burrow products are thoughtfully designed in the USA and manufactured with carefully vetted partners from all over the world – including those in North Carolina, Vietnam, Poland, and India."

About

"We knew that if we wanted to make a meaningful difference, it wouldn’t be as simple as putting a couch in a box and selling it online. To set a new standard, we had to focus on three fundamental changes: a modular platform, a focus on function and fashion, and an investment in community and experience."

Comfort

Nomad Collection: The cushions are formulated for lasting comfort with our proprietary three-layer foam and fiber architecture, and feature a plush crown for a soft initial sit.

Range Collection: The cushions use a combination of medium-density foam, shredded fill, and fiber wadding to give that immediate sink-in feeling with enduring comfort.

• Not much info on comfort for "The Sofa"
• "The Sectional" Info: The cushions are made of two layers of foam meant to minimize sagging and softening of cushions over time. The bottom layer is firmer and provides more structure, while the top layer is lower density resulting in a sit that allows you to sink in while providing ample support.

Modularity

Nomad Collection features the Moveable Chaise: can be attached to any seat: left, right, or in the middle.

Range Collection features a universal modular system: there are countless possible configurations, thanks to standardized connections and sizing. Can add in integrated tables or an attachable ottoman

"The Sectional" is designed to be modular and grow with you over time. You can start small and then add on or rearrange whenever needed.
