The sofa is one of the essential pieces of furniture in the living room when many homes are renovated.
It is not only necessary to have a good look, but also to have a comfortable experience and a long service life, otherwise it will not take long for the sofa to collapse, which is too miserable. Today we will talk about how to choose a sofa, novices pay attention to these 4 points, yes!
The size of the sofa is a very important purchase factor, buying a large is crowded, buying a small and stingy, so we should consider the overall design style, the position of the sofa and the size of the space.
From the perspective of the form of the sofa, there are mainly four types of single sofas, slotted sofas, L-shaped sofas and special-shaped sofas, and their advantages and disadvantages are as follows:
There are two ways to place the sofa:
One is placed directly against the wall。Generally, it will be combined with other furniture soft decoration layout, which is very diverse, such as side tables, trolleys, mood lights, chest of drawers, green plants and so on.
This diversified layout must be planned in advance, make a home purchase list, leave enough space, and then decide on the size of the sofa.
Formula for calculating the length of the sofa:
Sofa length = length of sofa background wall - length of furniture next to it - 50cm of breathing space reserved (can be left or not).
The second is the horizontal hall placement, which is also not placed against the wall. The size of the sofa should be coordinated with the proportion of the space to ensure that the circulation line is reasonable, and a 60cm aisle should be set aside behind the sofa, and the aisle next to it should be at least 1m.
The seat depth and height of the sofa cannot be ignored, which directly affects whether the sofa is comfortable to sit on.
If you like to lie on the sofa, then you can choose 70cm, if the sofa is mainly to entertain guests or the elderly, you can choose about 60cm, it will be more comfortable and convenient to sit.
The height of the sofa seat is usually 45cm, try not to exceed 45cmIt's too tall and your legs will be tiring to stand up;Also do not fall below 35cmIt's too short, and it's more laborious to sit and stand up.
The height of the sofa back is equally important, but many people ignore it, and now there are many sofas on the market that emphasize the sense of design and sitting, all of which are designed with a medium backrest or low backrest + high cushion, which also leads to the fact that we can not be supported by the neck and shoulders sitting on the sofa, and it is very uncomfortable for a long time.
If you want your neck not to be sore,It is recommended to choose a sofa with a backrest height of 60 cm
Of course, everyone's height and feelings are different, and the size of the sofa is not so absolute, so it's good to feel comfortable. If there is a large difference in height between the members of the family, you can choose according to the criteria of the tallest person.
There are two types of sofa materials: leather and fabric.
The leather sofa has a high-quality texture and a comfortable sitting feeling, but it is relatively high, and it is not recommended to have pets at home, so it is really distressing that such an expensive sofa is scratched.
If you have a cat at home and are worried about it scratching the sofa, you can take a look at the cat scratching cloth sofa, which is a kind of technical cloth, which has a stronger wear-resistant treatment and a leather texture, which is suitable for families with pets and children.
There are more fabric sofa products, commonly used cotton and linen sofas, air permeability and wear resistance are good, soft touch, suitable for most styles of design, cost-effective, wide range of choices.
The flannel sofa feels soft to the touch, fluffy to the touch, and has better warmth, and the texture of the fabric itself is very suitable for retro-style design.
Note that ordinary families carefully choose light-colored fabric sofas, which are easy to get dirty and not easy to clean, especially sofas that cannot disassemble the fabric, which are very difficult to take care of after being dirty.
The filling in the sofa directly affects the sitting feeling, now the mainstream material is sponge, its softness and resilience are better, a set of sofas often use a variety of sponge combinations, including many imported sofas are also sponge filling.
Recently, it is also more popular to use down as a filling, although down is soft and light and has warmth properties, it has almost no rebound ability, it is easy to collapse, the cost is relatively high, and there may be a peculiar smell, it is not recommended to choose a sofa filled with pure down.
It is recommended to choose a sofa with high resilience spongeIf you have a sufficient budget, you can choose high-density sponge + down.
The frame is the foundation of a sofa and determines the durability of the sofa, which is usually made of wood.
Don't choose a sofa with board (plywood, fiberboard, particleboard as the base material) + strap combination, this kind of sofa has poor stability, it will have problems in a few years, and the environmental protection is also poor.
It is recommended to choose a solid wood frame that is more durable, and choose high-quality wood, such as walnut, larch, cherry, ash, oak, beech, elm, etc.
Springs are also an important part of supporting the sofa seatYou can choose a sofa with a combination of serpentine springs + bandagesThe structure is stable and has strong support, which can avoid collapse to the greatest extent.
Here is a reminder to friends who have cats and dogs at home, you can pay more attention to the back cover of the sofa and use it at the bottomUmbrella cloth and suit cloth are more durable than non-woven fabrics, and they are not easy to damage even if they are scratched by cats and dogs
