Who the hell buys a red...
 
Leather couch?

I was getting into buying some red leather pieces of furniture but it's quite an un-sure colour.

Awesome? Or funky/ugly?

Gonna make everything else in the room kinda tough to figure out. Making a furniture statement like that requires a complete redecoration.

I have a red leather chair and would buy a couch in a heartbeat.

My chair looks a lot like that, but cooler.

I think you should go for it! I love the idea of a red sofa and if it wouldn't clash with my carpeting, I'd have done it long ago, myself.

I love it. Do it!

Its definitely funky in my book, and the rest of the stuff compliments it nicely.

Go go go go
Love it and love the rest of the stuff

Unfortunately my tastes run to eclectic and cluttered, even when tidy
But at least the slide into untidy isn't as noticeable that way

Who buys a red leather couch? A total PIMP.

It is a recliner and my son's matches.

the design of the sofas/chairs is not modern enough to compliment the other stuff.

imo.

it's a little too stuffed and curvy. Or something.

But I'd buy red. Just not leather -naked flesh sticks to is something rotten in the hot weather. youch!

I have a lot of red in my house. In the main living room, there are two red leather (bright red) chairs and a brown sofa. Red and tan curtains. The lamps are a grass green and the wood furniture is a very dark brown. It looks like your place goes well, but I would suggest adding another accent color. Maybe go find a pillow or painting or something with other colors to give you something to work with. Our inspiration was a pillow we bought with greens and reds and bright blues and oranges. Our dining room is painted a bright green with brown and light blue accents. I think you have to go with what you like. However, what we like changes and next we may be into darker, muted tones.
