4 Things to Consider Before Buying a Sofa Set for your Home

Buying a sofa is one of the most vital investments you are likely to make for your home. It is a piece of furniture where we sit, eat, drink, lounge or entertain friends and even sleep – so it makes sense to weigh all your pros and cons before investing in one that is going to last for years to come, right?

Here are 4 things you should consider before making that big purchase.

• Try it before you buy it – While you are choosing a sofa, make sure you sit on both the corners and the middle of the sofa to ensure the size, depth and back of the sofa is comfy. Also, if you plan on using your sofa as a couch, lay on the sofa to check its length and comfort level. Moreover, all the edges of the sofa should be smooth to touch and firm.
  
  
• Quality Matters – The quality of wood used to construct the sofa determines the strength and robustness of the piece. A high quality sofa is made out of good quality hardwood like teak, oak, sheesham, maple or walnut. Low quality of sofas is made from cheaper material which can be easily procured from markets like plywood or softwood.
  
  Always choose a sofa according to the tensile strength of wood and not solely on the comfort provided. Metal legs are not usually recommended as they are prone to scratches and can hamper flooring as well as are not water proof.
  
  
• Upholstery Material –The quality of the fabric as well as the leather upholstery is quite different in different sofas. Hence, it is highly recommended that one does research on the upholstery material being used in the sofa. Also, see to it that it is UV resistant and doesn’t fade due to continuous exposure of light.
  
  You can also opt for strain resistant synthetic fibres like polyester that are long lasting and easier to maintain. One has to make sure that a sofa is genuine leather and not some fluke faux leather although it is more cost-effective. Faux leather becomes sticky in summers, and flakes out after a certain period of time.
  
  
• Warranty Period - The warranty month of a sofa usually ranges between 12-36 months depending on the type of sofa being used. The quality of workmanship, material defects play a major role in determining the warranty of a sofa. Hence the manufacturer should offer good warranty period for replacement of the sofa if there are any defects in the wooden frame.
