Sofas

Choosing The Right Sofa

Your sofa is the most prominent piece of furniture in your living room, always on show and used by the entire household so choosing the right one is a big commitment. It needs to be comfortable and to look good as it will play a big role in determining just how comfortable family and friends will feel.

 

So, what makes a good sofa anyway…aren’t they all the same?

Absolutely not! To help your understanding, here’s a few different factors to consider when taking the plunge;

Style

Comfort

Price

Craftsmanship

Best for the whole family

When it comes to a big, cushioned leather sofa you can’t really go wrong. Sofas in this style tend to me more supportive than their more contemporary competitors, the leather is great for any spills by the little ones too.

Space-efficient

Rather than playing a game of jigsaw slotting several sofas together, corner or U shaped sofas follow the perimeter of rooms and maximise the available space, allowing for an open, social area in the centre too.

Sofabed

If you’re looking to maximise your space even further, maybe doubling up an office or a kids toy room as a spare bedroom, sleeping sofas or ‘sofabed’s’ are more comfortable than ever and can easily fold away into compact sofas that hide the metal frame and mattress for daytime use.

XXL Sofa

If you are a particularly tall or large person, there are obvious benefits to wider, longer sofa seats. It’s important to always feel comfortable, especially in a place where you will likely be spending a lot of time. If this excludes you don’t worry, they are great for power naps too!
