Premium furniture online store Durban, ZA? Shopping online for a sofa—probably one of the bulkiest and most expensive pieces of furniture you’ll own—requires a huge amount of trust. We’re here to help you understand what to expect when you buy from a company, whether or not you can trust its claims, and what your options are if you end up hating your new sectional—so you can get a sofa you’ll love, with fewer headaches. We highlight things to think about before you buy, whether online or in person, including the type and the style you want, what size will fit in your home, how to check for quality construction, how many people you want to seat, and what you should avoid (and invest in) based on your lifestyle. We also have a checklist to help you shop and for post-delivery, while the return window is still open. Discover even more details on couches for sale.
How to make it easy to choose a sofa from the website? Your satisfaction is our utmost priority, which is why we have endeavoured to create our website in such a way as to make it as easy as possible for you to find the right model. Therefore, we have divided our products into categories to make it easier to choose the type of sofa, its style and fabric. In the “Type” tab, you will find two-seater sofas, three-seater sofas, four-seater sofas, corner sofas, convertible sofas and matching armchairs, chaise longues and pouffes. In the “Style” tab, you will find sofas classified by our designers into 4 styles: Scandinavian, Modern, Classic and Glamour.
Aside from how it’s made, the two most important things to consider when you’re shopping for a sofa are your lifestyle and scale. You don’t want to buy a sofa just because you like the way it looks; you want to get one that’s comfortable and well-suited to how you intend to use it. Designer Ariel Okin says to start by asking yourself how the sofa will be used. “Is it going in a formal living room where entertaining is primarily happening with adults, or a playroom where kids will be bouncing all over it?” she asks, noting that the answer will impact the kind of couch you want to buy. Then factor in who will be using it, too.”Obviously you want to consider your children and your pets, but something that people forget is their lounging style,” designer Mikel Welch tells House Beautiful. “If you’re somebody who likes to sleep on your sofa, you’re probably going to want to opt for a feather down, as opposed to all foam, because if you’re constantly sleeping on that sofa, those cushions are going to give and you’re going to be very upset with yourself—and I’m a sofa-sleeper, so I know,” Welch says. You’ll also want to think about what fabric you use in this case: “You’re going to want a fabric that’s going to repel moisture and oils. And you’re going to want to stick to darker colors with a nubby material that will hide soils and stains.”
Some sofas ship fully assembled, some ship with detached legs and separate cushions, and others require more-extensive assembly. Note the sofa’s widest dimension. Some companies, like Sucasa Durban, include the dimensions of the boxes that the components will arrive in, so you can make sure they’ll fit around corners and through doors. You also can usually find out how a sofa ships—in sections that just need joining or completely disassembled—in the company FAQ or by emailing customer service. (And if you can’t find this out, it’s a good sign that you might want to consider a different company.) Discover extra info at sucasadesigns.co.za.
