What is your advice on uphostering a sofa with a high end microfiber called Sensuede or with a chenille? I have to make a decision this week. Does chenille tend to pill? How durable is chenille? I know the Sensuede brand of microfiber is really durable, so that's a huge plus, and it's so soft to the touch.
I have the fabric swatches here. Sensuede's cleaning code is S (solvent) or W (water), whereas the chenille's cleaning code is S.

I would definitly go with the sensuade. If you are going to the expense of upholstering, you want something that is going to hold up and be easy to keep clean.

Hi, Cryptons are great but the feel of a crypton can be rough and not very comfortable - make sure you feel the samples before deciding. I would say that a microfiber would be a good fabric for you - it is very tough and you can vacum this fabric with an attachment very easily to get rid of the dog hair. I would recommend a crypton or a microfiber fabric. Good Luck!

Definately the microfiber. It will hold up much better than chenille.
You can always accent with chenille pillows if you like.
