Imagine settling down to binge-watch [Netflix](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kylie-netflix) when suddenly, you spill your glass of wine all over your brand new couch -- fortunately, if you own a Burrow Sofa, the damage will be minimal. The couch company is designing smart furniture to suit the busy and sometimes clumsy Millennial lifestyle by crafting spill-resistant furniture. Burrow is a young start-up comprised of three friends who adopted and expanded on [IKEA's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-loafa) [modular model](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hulala-home-elitenest) by "introducing a premium level of quality without the premium price tag."

These chic sofas come in a variety of colors and can be assembled in less than 10 minutes. Perfect for young people, these reasonable sofas are stain-proof, chemical-free and with memory foam cushioning, competitively comfortable.
