Need Sofa Help. Modern sectionals?

I really like the Todd Oldham La-z-boy Velerie Section. The catch? It doesn't appear to be in a store anywhere outside of manhattan. I'd really prefer to actually SIT on a sofa before buying it.

So, questions:

1) Has anyone ever sat in this couch? How was it?

2) Anyone know of any sectionals that would have the same aesthetics as this one?

3) Ideally, it'd be modern, kid-friendly, and, a bonus, an outside corner option (like the valerie).

A friend of mine has a very similar couch. It looks great, but the problem is that realistically it only seats like 4 people. No one ever sits in the corners of the couch because there's no leg room. The back of the couch is low so your neck starts to hurt after a while. You find yourself slouching just to support your neck. I'm pretty tall though, I'm 5'11" so, I personally notice the lack of neck support immediately and its more of a problem for people of my height than others. Also, check out the La-z-boy galleries, they usually have a similar floor model that you can test out.
