but not a davenport?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Davenport_%28sofa%29
a davenport is a subset of sofa. and as such, all davenports are sofas.
it's a genericised term like a chesterfield, originally a brand name but later referring to sofas that converted to a bed and in some circles a sofa in general... my grandmother had a davenport convertible

ive never heard of a davenport. a divan is like a bed with drawers under it (i think)
i was under the impression a love seat was a doubee sofa/setee that faced in opposite directions....
http://
but i may be wrong? it seems ive been wrong about lots of things recently. maybe im slipping or loosing my marbles....i digress..

quite incredible isnt it? you ask a reasonable question about something shroom related and you get 1 maybe 2 responses. you put a picture of a sofa on and it almost goes viral. goes to show you never can tell??
