Title: Sofa Safety
Post by: The Colonel on December 15, 2010, 10:35:58 AM

Just when we thought we had sofa safety covered in this country it would appear that there are little if any standards amongst our friends in europe and we are able to buy them. One sofa tested went up in two minutes.

Worrying, but on the plus side, my old three minute video of a sofa fire has regained some relevance. Just got to find an old Betamax player and I'm all set.
