Sofa Selection

[ignition 0]

Hi

I m going to start the search for a sofa(Probably a L-shaped that sits 4) for my living room. What are the things to watch out for in the selection process?

Should be looking for a sofa with fabric material and removable covers as I heard that sitting on a full leather sofa will be warm in our climate.

there are always pros n cons for each material, its a matter of which is a lesser of the evil for individual usage habits or preference

Fabric:

cons:

1) will have a hard time washing and cleaning,

2) when putting back the covers its always a hassel for me,

3) if the fabric its not of good quality, it will still b warm, esp suede material

4) easier to trap dust within if not cleaned regularly

however if 1 have maid or not the lazy type like me, most of the cons of fabric could b ignored

pros:

1) if good quality fabric, less warm

2) can make another set of covers to change the look now n then

genuine Leather:

cons:

1) genuine leather have to b maintained regularly e.g applying leather care or moisturizer to prevent cracking

2) some may not like the leather smell

3) not as warm as synthetic leather

pros.

1) not as warm as alot of people think, less warm then synthetic

2) easier to clean compared to fabric

A 4 seater sofa usually range from 2.4m to 3m, thus alot of the new 4 rooms out there may not b able to fit a 4 seater L shape nicely.cos most of the newer 4 rooms are smaller in floor area and small living rooms.

however if the older type of 4 rooms usually 100 square meter or more type, there should not b much prob.

take note that the sofa always look smaller in showrooms compared to when at home.

Sofa sectional is a main part of drawing room. I suggest to you buy a full leather sofa because leather sofa is a best for home. Leather sofa is a water proof. You are very comfortable sitting in a leather sofa.

Genuine Leather is not water proof, the PVC stuff is.

this is important. i suggest not to commit to a sofa (or any furniture for that matter) until u have physical seen your place. i relied on the floorplan 6 years ago and implusively bought a 3+2 sofa set. regretted when immediately when they delivered the set. lived with it for 2 years until buay tahan, passed it to my parents and bought a L-shape plus recliner.

now, i learn from that lesson, will wait for my tenant to vacate my house first then i go in to measure to see if the sofa i am eyeing will fit

For me, the support of the cushion will not slack within one or two years and must comes with warranty for it. Dont buy those comes with structured warranty, whats the point having a slack sofa cushion where the frame is still good!!! Provided that you intend to spend quite abit on the good quality sofa set, if not anythings goes.
