Because there's more than meets the eye
The most important criterion when choosing your sofa is the size. Indeed, it would be a shame if it does not fit in your room or if it is not adapted. Initially, it is therefore necessary to take the dimensions of your space and if necessary draw on the ground the ideal size of your future sofa.
Once this step is done and the dimensions are well in mind, you can choose the number of seats and the configuration adapted to your space (corner sofa, straight, with several elements ...)
The type of sofa is also an important criterion to take into account. We do not change armchairs every day, so you must think about your future needs.
If you often receive visitors or if you are a little cramped in your house and you need an additional bed, opt for a convertible sofa.
Do you have a small child or a pet? Your sofa will wear out faster. You should therefore think about choosing resistant, durable and stain-resistant materials.
You are looking for space saving? Then choose a sofa bed with built-in storage such as armrests or a chaise longue that turns into a chest...
As far as the covering is concerned, you are spoilt for choice: fabric, leather, synthetic... You will find your favorite for sure! If the aesthetic side is important, you must also take into account the practical side of the covering. We tell you everything about the different possibilities.
Natural and synthetic blends are the most common when it comes to sofas. This is mainly due to the fact that the choice of colors and patterns is endless.
If you choose this material, you should know that there is a wide range of "aqua clean" fabric but that it is also possible to treat them afterwards with an anti-stain product. In case of accident, rub your sofa with an absorbent cloth and that's it!
Leather is one of the materials that age well. As far as colors are concerned, there are more and more possibilities. Leather that is dyed in the mass and more grained will be less sensitive to scratches. If you have a pet, you should choose this type of leather.
For maintenance, opt for a special leather treatment to maintain its suppleness and elasticity.
In recent years, synthetic fabric is becoming increasingly common in terms of sofa material, due to its resistance and diversity. Regarding maintenance, it is easily cleaned with a cloth and can in most cases be machine washed.
