Triple sofa - how to make the right choice?

The sofa is one of the most expensive furniture units, and by buying it, we are counting on a long service life. It has a considerable load during the entire period of use, especially for folding models, which, in addition to the place for daytime rest, are night sleeping area.

Triple sofas for living room

Understanding the number of seats, it is difficult to name the specific length of the seat, since nowhere in the world there is a clear classification in this regard. In some manufacturers, a three-seater sofa has a length of 190 cm, while others classify them as 2.5-bed. On one seat by different measures it is necessary from 60 to 110 cm. So the choice of a specific size lies entirely on you - you are free to decide what dimensions will be acceptable.

Be that as it may, a soft three-seater sofa should be chosen extremely carefully. Experts in this matter advise to pay attention to the following points:

  1. Quality of seams. Sewing in most cases is an indicative characteristic of the whole product. Since we can not look inside and see the filler, we need to evaluate the sofa for the quality of sewing its upholstery. If you see that the seams are uneven, they are sloppy, it is unlikely that the inside of it meets high standards.
  2. Material of the frame. Be sure to ask the seller what the frame is made of. There are three options - chipboard, plywood and metal. The sawdust skeleton is the weakest and the short-lived. For such serious furniture it is extremely undesirable, since it is not designed for serious loads. Plywood and metal frame are more preferable, although they increase the total cost of the product.
  3. Filler. As a stuffing good sofa should act foam polyurethane with a density of at least 25 units, or it can be a spring unit. Cheap foam rubber will take place after a couple of weeks of operation, and it can not be restored.
  4. Upholstery material. Thin fabric is a way to save on production, and soon it will stretch and lose shape. Thickness is an important indicator of the strength of the upholstery. In general, the choice of its type is entirely the matter of the taste of the future owner.
  5. The quality of the transformation mechanism. If it is a transformable three-seater sofa, make sure that the metal thickness of the transformation mechanisms is not less than 3 mm. All connectors must be strong. Much can tell and the quality of the painting mechanism - if done negligently, there is a high probability that the level of strength is low, the risk of breakdown of mechanism, on the contrary, is high.

Fabric triple sofa

The length of service of your sofa and its external appeal largely depends on the quality of the upholstery. Fabric straight three-seater sofas are made using high-tech materials, resistant to a variety of effects. For example, the important quality of modern fabric upholstery - the presence of Teflon impregnation. It is designed to protect the fabric from moisture, not allowing it to fill. Consider at the same time that such processing raises the cost of the product, and a more low-cost option, slightly inferior to the protective characteristics, is Teflon spraying.

If we talk about the specific types of fabrics used for upholstery sofas, among them we can name the most popular:

Triple leather sofa

They are considered elite furniture items, therefore, they are not accepted for saving on their production, and yet it is necessary to approach their choice responsibly.

Wall models of direct sofas do not have such a finish, so that the back wall is "hidden" and not accessible to the eyes.
