Sofa Made Simple: Guide to keep your sofa looking good for years
It might have taken you some time before choosing the sofa from the furniture shop the last time you bought your sofas.
Only to find out that everything was all in vain. Your sofa was not as lovely as you first thought it to be. To ease the trouble of choosing your sofa, here are some guidelines to make the work lighter:
A living room sofa set is likely to outlive many things, from the family car and microwave to the kids’ trendy hairstyles. Most people keep a sofa for 3 to 10 years before buying something new. In a recent survey by Furniture/Today, a leading trade publication, more than half of consumers in the market for a new sofa were replacing one ten years old or more.
If you are one of those consumers- or soon will be here are some tips on choosing your next sofa wisely.
According to a recent survey, paying careful attention to the quality elements that give a piece its lasting power is essential. Before you buy, be sure to read the fine print on the warranty. Note what comes included and how long the company guarantees the product.
For instance, Duroflex offers a 3-year warranty on the sofa collections within its furniture. The duration of this warranty reflects the collection’s quality craftsmanship.
Duroflex also points to this collection as an example of how mainstream furniture manufacturers are bringing the fashion-forward looks consumers see in magazines and designer showrooms onto retail floors-but at much more affordable prices.
Know what’s on the inside. Several high-end standards mean more than just good looks.
Down, for instance, is an excellent indicator of quality and comfort. Down-proof ticking used in pillows and seatbacks adds a desirable “crinkle” effect upon sitting.
Choosing down-blend seat cushions will provide an even more luxurious seat. Soft padded outside arms and back also add to the overall comfort of the piece.
If you want a sofa to make a great visual impression for years to come, look for the following cues:
· Deep decking (the fabric under the seat cushions) ensures that only the sofa’s primary fabric appears when we sit. Six inches of fabric is ideal.
· Welting (the cotton cord covered with fabric is sewn along the seams of the upholstered frame and cushions) that is straight and free of wrinkles.
· Skirts that hang smoothly with crisp corners.
· Fabric Sofa patterns must match the seat to cushion the back of the frame.
The more your new sofa speaks of your style, the more likely it will stand the test of time. We suggest starting with a classically designed frame and adding unique flair with custom touches.
It would be best to put your furniture to the “sit” test before buying. This test is the best and most straightforward way to judge the overall comfort of any sofa or chair.
If you're at-home seating style includes sprawling, flopping and stretching out-and, who doesn’t? -these should be part of your test.
It is not always advisable to pick a colour that looks strong. As far as interior design palette is concerned, neutral colours remain to be the ideal choice.
If you want to capture those hot and striking colors, take advantage of the sofa accessories.
Finally, we recommend buying products with brand names like Duroflex Sofas online
