When Looking for a Family Sofa What to Look at First?

➢About the BusinessWhen you want to buy a

sofa for the home, it is essential to spend some time in research. It is a significant furniture investment. ➢Notably, a family sofa needs attention furthermore. ➢A sofa that you can be happy with year after year needs a careful assessment. Other than style and looks, you should look into other aspects as well. ➢What are things to look at first? The blog touches all essential aspects.

❑You will agree to it that a sofa should be comfortable in

different positions. Hence, the primary consideration is the depth of the seats. ❑The sofa should support the back adequately when you sit on it

with the feet flat on the floor, and the back of the knee is forward a little of the cushion of the lower seat. ❑If you are looking for a sofa where you want comfortable

snoozing, then check the length and width. It should be long enough to give you total comfort.

You can change the cushions, the upholstery and foam, but you can’t replace the frame. It determines the sturdiness and stability of the sofa.

Don’t ever buy a sofa that has a frame made from plastic, lowquality metal or particleboard.

Always prefer a solid hardwood wooden frame. The best wood is oak followed by beach and ash. Pinewood is also popular, but it doesn’t last long. If you are keen to replace the sofa after five years, then pine is a right choice.

Not only the material of the frame but joineries also make a big difference. Is the frame made by just stapling or nailing the joints or fixing them with a glue?

If yes, then you shouldn’t expect long-lasting service.

You should prefer a sofa which is joined with single or double wooden dowels, corner blocks, brackets or screws. It will last longer and give your family a superior comfort and stability.

Armrests are crucial because not only they determine the comfort of the sofa but also its stability. However, it is the most common area of failure because people seldom pay attention to it.

Experts suggest the ‘hardness test’ for it. The hardness test means push hard on the arms of the sofa. There shouldn’t be any sign of wobble. It should be rock-solid.

Other than these aspects, two essential considerations are cushions and springs. Choose a sofa that has comfortable cushioning and high-quality springs.
