Well god help anyone that has to pay shipping for this tank of a couch but man is it sweet! Constructed from an antique, solid iron, claw foot bathtub of yore is the Sofa Max. You get to personalize the fabric used to upholster this reused behemoth and have the peace of mind knowing that you are practicing one of the three R’s…reuse!! (Perhaps the all too ignored R). With room to comfortably seat two this tub is authentic, eclectic, and durable. So next time you’re on a date ask if they would like to come back to your place and just relax in the tub and watch a movie.

About the Author:

Doug is in perpetual motion and a self-proclaimed adventure junkie, that has had a longtime love affair with the great outdoors.

“I love being a part of the active world. The stuff that blows my hair back is adventure (all shapes and sizes), photography, mountaineering, Muay Thai, and seeing natural beauty in all its forms. The living earth is the framework on which I build my life and free time. My ideal trip would be BASE jumping at Sotano de Las Golandrinas in Mexico (closest I could come to skydiving through the jungle!). I work towards keeping it real, green, and healthy. ”

Doug is the co-founder of LiveOAK, although he says he didn’t know what a blog was until a couple months after he started.
