A Little Background

Sofas have been around ever since people have started making pillows, beds and soft cushion upholstery. Furniture cannot be the same without sofas, and perhaps, it is the sofa that is the most important piece of any living room. Without the sofa, most people cannot enjoy a quality time watching TV, playing games, drinking and eating or talking with family and friends and having a good time.

True enough; the sofa has now become a staple of any modern home, whether you live on warm countries or whether you live in cool countries. All sofas have their own individual purposes and shape and size that will match the lifestyle of whoever will want to own the sofa, so it is very important to pick the sofa that is just right for you and the home you live in.

Most people do not want to have a super heavy sofa because it will be harder to move from place to place if they just have a very bulky sofa. In addition, some people also want sofas to last forever so they sometimes invest on sofas that are built to last for a lifetime and some also want to choose the materials carefully. Some sofa materials are very sensitive to clean and this makes it very hard for the owner of the sofa to maintain their upholstery.

All in all, a sofa is very necessary for any modern home, be it a single or a couple or a whole family. You just have to make sure that the sofa you need is just right for your budget and can match the color scheme as well as open space of your living space.

How We Picked

We picked the best sofa based from the following guidelines and criteria:
What are the overall dimensions of the sofa? First, you have to make sure that the sofa will definitely fit your home so you have to do the math and measure first before buying anything. Get ready for any extras and make sure you actually get just the right size for the sofa and for your living area. Some people say that it is very hard to shop for a sofa online but that is what you would do in the store – you have no choice but to give exact measurements of your area so you can buy the most applicable sofa for that living space so that it does not go to waste.
Is it durable and could it last for a long time? The sofa must be very durable so that it can last for years to come and not worry about the creases, especially for the sofas that are not made from super durable materials. Remember that even if they are pricier, it is much more ideal to buy sofas that are high priced because you know that they are not just comfortable – they can last for a long time without much maintenance to perform.
Are the cushions and seats well-tufted? A sofa must be firmly tufted so that it can serve well any person who will sit on the sofa. A tufted seat means that it is firm in place and cannot get a lot of creases. It is also important in protecting the sofa’s interior material so that it can last for a long time.
Is it very comfortable to sit on? A sofa must be comfortable to sit on so that it can accommodate so many people at the same time and is still soft and just right for its feel and texture. The sofa must be able to keep itself firm and not break down with excessive people sitting. You must also know the weight limit for the sofa so that it will not wear out often.
Does it have really cool features? The sofa that has cool features such as removable arm rests and reclining lever back makes it all the worthwhile. In addition, some sofas also have pillows as an extra and these often add accents to any sofa and are useful for those who own a convertible sleeper sofa bed.
What do the reviews say about the sofa? If there are more positive than negative reviews on the sofa then you should at least consider buying it. Do note that the cons should not be a deal breaker and should be okay to deal with. The pros must outweigh the sofa’s cons.
Does it have a reasonable price for the sofa features? Let’s face it – sofas are quite expensive, especially those made with genuine leather or similar material that is priced really high and are very high maintenance. Therefore, if you want to save budget but want a sofa that looks elegant, you should at least consider faux leather because not only does it save you from water stains and cleaning hassle, it also looks just like the real thing.
Is the material of the sofa easy to clean and maintain? Know if the sofa has a good material that makes it easy to handle. For instance, faux leather is very easy to clean because in comparison to real leather, it is not too delicate as upholstery material so you can just wipe it with a damp cloth.
