As the bulk of furniture and the center of the living room, how should you choose a sofa? In recent comments, people have been asking more about how to choose a sofa: Are
technology fabric sofas so good? Is it worth buying?
My budget is about 3,000 yuan. Which sofa is more cost-effective to buy?
has taken a fancy to a down sofa. It looks very comfortable. Can I buy it?
In the following article, I will summarize my furniture selection experience and tell you the 6 types of sofas you should pay attention to avoid when choosing a sofa . If you follow these instructions, you can also buy a comfortable and good-looking sofa:
1. No Buy multifunctional sofa
Recently I saw an anchor on a certain channel sharing this kind of multifunctional sofa, which integrates functions such as massage, charging and music. It looks so comfortable and full of technology! But if you are really tempted and want to take action, then be careful!
Reason: As furniture, the essential function of the sofa is the most important. These multi-functional sofas seem to have many functions, but often the most core function-sitting feeling is not satisfactory. Furthermore, the more functions you have, the faster they will break down. How many of those fancy functions do you actually need?
2. Don’t buy a full down sofa
Cloud sofa has become very popular in the past two years. This kind of sofa filled with all down looks soft. People who have never experienced it will definitely be very yearning for it. They imagine lying on it and it will be so comfortable that it will take off. Feel. In fact, a fully down-filled sofa is not comfortable to sit on and lacks the necessary support. It is unbearable to sit on a long waist. Moreover, the sofa will collapse after being used for a long time, completely losing its original shape.
Reason: The seat cushions and backrest of the sofa must ensure the necessary support to make it comfortable to sit. However, fillings such as full down and full plastic cannot provide sufficient support and resilience. Such a sofa is certainly comfortable. No.
recommends choosing a sofa filled with one-piece high-density resilient sponge, which not only has strong support but also has good resilience and will not collapse after long-term use.
3. Don’t buy low-priced and low-quality technical fabric sofas
In recent years, sofa merchants prefer to promote technical fabrics, but in fact, technical fabrics do not have high “tech”. They are just polyester fabrics plus coating. The quality is not bad. It all depends on the materials used in the coating. Technical cloth with truly wear-resistant and anti-fouling capabilities requires better coating materials and technology, and the price is certainly not cheap.
Reason: The coating quality of the technical fabric sofas priced at 2,000 to 3,000 yuan on the market is average and can only be used for a short period of time. Over time, the skin will peel off and discolor, and the entire sofa will no longer be usable. At this price, it is recommended to choose a fabric sofa made of cotton and linen blends. This fabric is stiffer and more breathable. This is the real cost-effective choice.
4. Do not buy affordable solid wood frame sofas
In my impression, solid wood sofas are relatively high-end and show style and taste, but please note that not all solid wood is worth buying, such as eucalyptus , pine and other miscellaneous wood or fast-growing wood. Sofa with wooden frame.
Reasons: Eucalyptus, pine and other miscellaneous wood or fast-growing wood frames. First, the wood is soft and prone to cracking and deformation. Second, if the wood of eucalyptus is not treated cleanly by the manufacturer, it is prone to insects and rot. If you really like the texture of solid wood, it is recommended to choose better quality wood.
5. Don’t buy sofas that cut corners
Why are the prices of sofas of the same style different by thousands of yuan? The reason is that many affordable sofas cut corners! For example, in terms of sponge density, a low-density sponge is used; on the bottom frame, a full bandage structure is used; on the ground sealing cloth, cheap non-woven fabric is used as a sealing cloth, etc.
Reason: A truly high-quality sofa not only looks good in appearance, but is also willing to use materials in invisible places.For example, in terms of the density of filling sponges, use high-density sponges to ensure higher support and resilience; on the bottom frame, use snake-shaped springs and bandages to improve comfort and firmness; on the bottom sealing cloth, use higher Use good fabrics to avoid problems such as slag and weathering that may occur in non-woven fabrics in the short term.
6. Do not buy a sofa with unscientific dimensions
The size of the sofa directly affects the comfort and practicality of the seat cushion. There are four dimensions that should be paid attention to when selecting: first, the height of the seat cushion; second, the depth of the seat cushion; third, the height of the backrest; fourth, is the bottom height. These four sizes are very important. Too big or too small will affect the sitting feeling and practicality.
Reasons:
First, the height of the seat cushion. For , choose a height of 35 to 45 centimeters. This height can meet the requirements of people of all heights. It can put the calves in a relaxed state and the whole person can relax.
The second is the depth of the seat cushion. recommends choosing one that is over 70 cm, so that even if you are lying on the sofa, there is enough room to turn over.
The third is the height of the backrest. For , choose one that is higher than 55 cm. If the height of the backrest is lower than 55 cm, there will be no support for your neck when you lean on it. If you want to sit on the sofa and watch TV, you will need to put a cushion behind your neck to adjust your neck. Comfort, it becomes uncomfortable after sitting for a long time.
The fourth is the bottom height. Or just choose the floor-standing model to prevent dust and various debris from rolling under the sofa and making it difficult to clean. Or choose one that is higher than 15 cm. Whether it is sweeper or broom and mop, it can be easily accessed for cleaning.
