  • Looking for tropical style sofa bed

    Would love suggestions for stores on Oahu that carry new sofa beds with rattan arms and, hopefully, can be upholstered in something resembling bark cloth. Today I checked Home World and CS Wo on Beretania and Pacific Home on Ward Ave. Hawaii Home Interiors on Nimitz was closed so I'll check them tomorrow. Just wondering if any HTers have favorite places to buy tropical style furniture. TIA!

    I'm not sure what your budget is...

    I saw this one on Ebay... is that the style your looking for?

        Cran...

        I went to that the store one on Piikoi one time on a whim looking for a Rattan Headboard for my bed.

        I left the place because I felt the guy was pressuring me into buying something.
        I continued to look around for something else... couldn't find anything and ended up having to go back there.

          Not really as I'm looking for a sofa bed, not a futon. I have a futon sofa now. Thanks for the link, tho'.

            Thanks, Cran. I'll check it out. If I get pressured I'll just tell 'em I don't speak English!

              If anyone knows where to buy a punee or what we used to call a hiki`e (I think thats how it is spelled), I would love to know. I've been looking for a while - just to replace the horrible loveseat I have. I have dreams about the one I used to have many years ago & would love to find another - even used would be ok. I don't need fancy, just comfort.

                Oh yeah, they'll believe the strawberry blonde doesn't speak English. Vodka anyone?

                  hello...just cause someone is white...doesn't mean they speak english?

                  However, I do know local friends that are Japanese that will pull the "No speak english" comment to sales people... cuz they can

                  I met tutusue at HT picnic and I think she could pull off a good foreign sounding thing... (without laughing out loud until she got into the car)

                    I've been called a lotta things in my life. Strawberry blonde isn't one of 'em!

                    Oh wait...my highlights grew out since I last saw you!

                        Not to worry, lavagal...I can't pull off a foreign accent to save my life. I sure admire those who can, tho'.

                          All you need to do to really fool em... is bring in a small catalog card that says... "I don't speak english"
                          once he starts making his sell...turn to him...reach into the purse...pull out the card and show it to him.... nuff said....

                          then laugh your way home!

                            Da, spasiba.

                            Spoken as a true strawberry blonde, with Russian/Polish/Austrian/German/Irish roots.

                            With the requisite Vodka tolerance...slainte!...
