Sofa FAQs

1. How do I choose the right sofa size?

When choosing the size of your sofa, measure the space available in your room and make sure the dimensions of your chosen couch fit nicely. Consider the number of people who will regularly be using your couch, as well as how many people could comfortably sit in the surrounding area, to ensure your seating area accounts for enough guests and family members. For more measurement advice, read our sofa measurement guide.

2. What is the difference between a couch and a sofa?

A couch tends to have a more laidback design, while a sofa might have a more formal finish. In fact, it’s believed that the word “couch” came from the French term coucher (to sleep), which was once more of a chaise longue or daybed.

3. What sofa style should I go for?

Choosing your perfect sofa will depend on your personal preferences, needs, and priorities - consider the size, material, shape, and colour to find an option that best suits your tastes. Some of our sofas also come with chaises, reclining seats, headrests and more, so look out for any additional features that interest you.

4. How long do sofas last?

Sofas can last for decades with the appropriate amount of attention and care. Keep sharp objects and spill hazards away from your sofa to avoid damage, and remember to plump your cushions regularly. For more advice on how to look after your sofa, you can read our furniture care guides.

5. What is the right material for a sofa?

Your choice of sofa material depends on your personal taste, as each option has pros and cons. Fabric sofas are an affordable option with the opportunity to choose bold colours for your room, while velvet is perfect for luxury sofas and elegant designs, and leather sofas are a durable, timeless choice for a traditional look.

6. Leather sofas vs fabric sofas

Choosing between a  leather or fabric sofa  can be a difficult decision. Leather sofas tend to be more durable and stylish, while fabric options are more comfortable and affordable. Think about which qualities you look for most in a sofa, and choose between them accordingly.

7. What are the latest sofa trends?

In recent years, modular and corner sofas have dominated interior design trends. Neutral colours have also proven to be a trendy choice for sofas as Scandinavian interiors continue to grow in popularity, but for bolder tastes, burnt orange appears to be the colour of the moment. Keeping up with design choices on the rise can help you find your dream sofa, so be sure to look around for inspiration.

8. My living room is small, do you have compact sofas available?

2 seaters and corner sofas are typically the best choices of  sofas for small living rooms , and we have plenty available in our collection. Additionally, a modular sofa can be customised to fit neatly into tight rooms, making them a smart and space-efficient choice.
