Tips on choosing a sofa

1. Customize needs

What is the sofa for? Where will it be located? Is it for a living room, terrace, or living room? The existence of pets such as dogs and cats also need to be considered, because these animals usually participate in the move with you. Its use, whether it will be the first stopover of children at home, whether it will be a holder when you read, whether to be used as a massage chair, and so also need to be considered. All of these things will lead you to the selection of the right kind of sofa.

2. Framework

The couch framework should be strong to withstand loads. Whether your family consists of people with a high enough weight should also be considered in choosing a sofa. An easy way to test whether a skeleton is properly installed is to lift the right or left side of the sofa. Can also wiggle the couch when you sit.

If you lift the arm, then, all the frames also shift, then the skeleton is properly installed. If the opposite side does not shift, it means that the sofa frame is not properly installed. A good sofa skeleton should be sealed on all sides, either with glue or screw. In addition, consider also the type of wood used, whether the wood is solid and strong enough.

3. Suspension

The suspension determines how elastic the sofa is, and how its carrying capacity is to our weight. There are several types of coil on the sofa. One can adjust the shape of the bed with the press and weight points. In this type, the more coils, the price of the sofa will be more expensive. There is a coil in the form of zigzag or S, drop-in, and eight-way coil. The more spread the coil, the more qualified.

4. Bearing

Check if the pads are thick and comfortable when occupied. A good sofa cushion does not easily slip inside. The sofa cushion should be padded, but still elastic. Ask what the material is. Duck and goose feathers quite comfortable to wear, but can clot and expensive. Fiber and polyester foam are cheaper, but thinner. The middle options are HR foam and sponge

5. Fabric type

The most qualified type of coating is genuine leather. Leather material is not easily damaged, more elastic, and the color is durable. However, this material is the most expensive. Other materials used are fabric. Can be nylon fabric, cotton, linen, or other fabrics. Whatever the material, make sure the material is thick enough, so it is not easy to tear. Choose non-rough and easy to clean. You should ask the clerk at the store, how the right way to clean the couch with the material.

6. Furniture insurance

Currently, a number of home supply stores already provide insurance services for some of the products it sells, starting from a certain nominal. Insurance is usually used to anticipate damage to furniture due to disasters, such as floods. If you feel the price of the sofa is quite expensive, and will feel very unwilling if at any time something unexpected, can try to ask the availability of insurance.
