How many sofas have the Windasses had?

Two, at least, and they're heading for three with any luck. I've really enjoyed the recent scenes with my two favourite Coronation Street males - Eddie Windass and John Stape - and yes, I do know I've got peculiar tastes - in which Eddie has been trying to blag a cheap settee.
But I couldn't help noticing that the sofa which they are trying to ditch - the one with the food colouring stains on it - is made from fabric - I'm guessing either moquette or Draylon - and completely different to their original sofa (pictured). This leatherette one is clearly "wipe clean". Have I missed something, like Eddie bunging it on a skip? Feel free to call me pedantic, but I'd like to know.

Excellent spot!

Hmmm...you're right.
Same colour couch as the 'wipe clean' vinyl one ( so we wouldn't notice).
Corrie has always been so careful about discrepancies, and inconsistencies, unlike another soap that is notorious for both.
Funny that the writers would think that viewers take no notice of details.

I like Eddie Windass a lot too!

I'm in Canada, so I can't comment, as the Windasses still have the 'leather' sofa. But while we are on the subject of sofas, can ANYONE tell me if the sofa currently at Tyrone and Molly's (Jack's) USED to be at Eileens.. I really seem to think so and also don't recall any scenes explaining.
Thx.

Wow, seems to be some sofa switching going on.
I was going to say that the beige 'wipe down' couch now seems to be at Fiz and John's house...at least they have one, and the Windasses don't!

Well spotted. Having the cloth covered one is obviously in the plot for Eddie to turn up at John's "furniture factory". Oh what a tangled web.........
