Question 1: What should you pay attention to when buying a sofa? The sofa is an indispensable piece of furniture in the living room. It can not only entertain guests and gather with your family, but also facilitate you to watch TV and read books and periodicals. The sofa has single, two and three seats, and can be arranged in different arrangements. Therefore, when choosing a sofa, you must first consider the living room space and purpose, and then choose a suitable match according to the overall design.
When trying a sofa, you must first sit on it and take a look. If you feel that it is touching the bottom, it is best to choose another sofa. No matter how you sit, a good sofa can strongly support your body. When purchasing a sofa, try sitting on it in different positions. If you like to sit cross-legged, the sofa seat should be deeper; if you sit normally, a seat that is too deep or too shallow is not suitable.
The appearance of sofas on the market are generally similar, but the materials used are different, so don’t buy a sofa with poor quality at a high price. Generally, the heavier the sofa, the better the quality. Leather sofas are generally heavier than fabric sofas. Don't just pay attention to the price, because some sofas with the same appearance are made of different materials. It's best to do some research on the quality of the sofa first. It is generally believed that sofas with coiled springs are better, but if the springs are not specially treated, the sofa may make a squeaking sound over time.
In order to avoid being misled by the spacious showroom, you should first understand the area of ????your living room before choosing to buy.
Sponge requirements
Filling mainly refers to sponges. Sponges are divided into three types according to their elasticity: high elasticity, high elasticity and super soft, and medium elasticity. Medium-elastic sponges are generally used for the backrest and armrests, while high-elastic and high-elastic super-soft sponges are used for the seat parts. High-end sofa cushions should use high-elastic foam sponges with a density of more than 40 kg/m3, and back cushions should use high-elastic foam sponges with a density of more than 25 kg/m3. In order to improve the comfort of sitting and lying, some foams are softened without reducing the density, and some have vertical springs in the seat cushions to give the sofa higher resilience and anti-aging properties. Under normal circumstances, it is best for the sofa cushion to be depressed by about 10 centimeters after the human body sits down.
The stability of the sofa frame
A good sofa must be framed with square wood and fixed with boards on the sides. We can hold up the sofa with our hands and feel the weight. If the sofa is made of packaging boards or plywood, it will be light, while the solid wood frame will be heavier. You can also use both hands to shake the entire sofa from front to back and left to right repeatedly to feel the weight. Its firmness.
Look at the fine workmanship of the internal structure
Nowadays, whether it is a leather sofa or a fabric sofa, there is usually a zipper at the bottom that can be opened. We can open a corner of the bottom fabric under the seat to check. If it is made of smooth hardwood without decay, insect infestation, scars, bark or wood hair, and the joints between materials are not nailed, but interlocked with mortises or notches. , and then use glue to stick it firmly, and there will be no problem.
Look at the fabric
If it is a leather sofa, the most important thing is to choose the leather surface. Popular sofas on the market now are mostly divided into full green leather sofas and semi-green leather sofas. When purchasing a leather sofa, the leather surface should be rich and shiny, without scars, and with fine texture and texture. Use your fingertips to pinch a spot and pull it upwards to feel the feel. The leather is flexible and strong, and the wrinkles can disappear or become less obvious after sitting. This kind of leather is the best leather.
If it is a fabric sofa, you should pay attention when purchasing. The seat and back cover of the sofa should be a loop structure. High-end fabric sofas are generally lined with cotton, and other easily stained parts should be replaceable and washable. The sofa fabric should be relatively thick, with a weight of more than 300 grams per square meter, which is more durable, and it must be ensured that the surface will not pill after being rubbed for more than 12,000 times. If imported high-grade fabrics also have antistatic, flame retardant, tear resistance and other functions. When buying a fabric sofa, you should choose fabrics with fine and smooth warp and weft lines, no skipping threads, no exposed joints, and a tight feel.
The fabric does not have to be thick, the important thing is that the cloth should be dense enough. Cloth with high density is wear-resistant and less likely to deform after washing.
In particular, in order to improve the anti-fouling ability, some high-end fabrics have been specially treated on the surface and have anti-static, flame-retardant and other functions. When buying fabric sofas, you should choose fabrics with fine and smooth warp and weft lines, no skipping wires, no exposed joints, and a tight feel. of. When sewing, you need to check whether the stitches are even and straight. Use both hands to check whether the seams are tight and whether the edges of the teeth are round and plump.
If you want to buy a cloth cover separately, be sure to buy it when you buy the sofa. If you buy a sofa cover later, it usually doesn't fit well; if you buy it together, the manufacturer will try on the fabric cover and change it immediately if it doesn't fit. ...gt；gt;
Question 2: What should you pay attention to when buying a sofa? 1. When buying a leather sofa, the sofa leather is the top priority
The value of a leather sofa is mainly reflected in the genuine leather, which accounts for almost half of the total value. The leather is divided into full green leather and imported from Italy. There are seven types of leather: yellow cowhide, semi-green leather, yellow cowhide, buffalo leather, pigskin and thick leather. Among them, full green leather is the highest grade genuine leather, followed by yellow cowhide and semi-green leather imported from Italy. Leather sofas on the market today generally use buffalo leather, which is thicker and affordable. Only some high-end leather sofas use yellow cowhide or green leather imported from Italy. Therefore, when purchasing a leather sofa, you must indicate the type of leather on the order. According to Mr. Zhang, Zhihai is committed to building a high-quality brand of solid wood furniture, so Zhihai’s European-style leather sofas are all made of imported yellow cowhide.
2. The second key point to consider when purchasing a leather sofa is the wooden frame structure of the sofa.
A high-end leather sofa should first be a good solid wood sofa, that is to say Its wooden frame should be pure solid wood, so we can feel its weight when we hold it up with our hands. In addition, the frame of a high-end leather and solid wood sofa should be a mortise and tenon structure, nails cannot be used, and the structure should be solid so that you will not feel any shaking when sitting on the sofa.
3. The third factor that affects the quality and price of leather sofas is the sponge and spring of the sofa.
According to Mr. Zhang, the sponges of leather sofas include high elasticity, high elasticity and super soft. There are three types: bullet sponge and bullet sponge. The backrest and armrests are mostly made of bullet sponge, and the base is mostly made of high-elastic and high-elastic super-soft sponge. Therefore, when buying a leather sofa, you should ask the salesperson about the types of sponges used in each part of the sofa. In addition, a high-end leather sofa can quickly recover after being pressed with bare hands without any obvious dents, and the springs should not make friction or collision sounds when you sit down.
4. The appearance of the leather sofa also affects the quality and price of the sofa
The external shape of a high-end leather sofa should be beautiful and elegant, and the pattern on the wooden frame should be complete and not obvious. The paint film on the parts should be smooth and uniform in color. According to Mr. Zhang, one of the important reasons why Zhihai has been able to build a leather sofa brand is that the carvings on the wooden frames of Zhihai's European-style leather sofas are all hand-carved and have extremely high artistic content.

Question 3: What should you pay attention to when buying a sofa? Consider the following aspects:
1. Sofa size. Many sofas can be disassembled and assembled, and some cannot be disassembled and assembled. You should tell the sofa seller how wide and high your elevator is, how big the door is, etc. , to prevent it from being too big to enter the door (especially European-style sofas), and another point is that it is suitable for the size of your living room;
2. Sofa material. For fabric sofas, pay attention to whether the fabric is easy to clean. Now some fabrics have been Make sure that stains can be washed away directly with a wet rag and tea; for leather-covered sofas, pay attention to whether it is genuine leather or leather, or just genuine leather on the human body contact surface, etc.; genuine leather is also divided into top-layer leather and second-layer leather. The first-layer leather is softer and has a better sitting feel. Very good, the second-coat leather is a bit hard. As for the material used for the main frame of the sofa, let’s see how it goes. You can unzip some sofas to see them, or you can try moving them by yourself. Heavy wood is better. Then there’s the density of the cushion sponge. High-density sponges are more durable and will feel harder; for solid wood Chinese-style sofas, the key is to see what kind of wood it is, generally oak is fine;
3. When maintaining sofas, pay attention to whether fabric sofas are removable and washable. It is good to make the seat cushions and backrests easy to remove and wash. There is no such problem with leather sofas and solid wood Chinese sofas;
4. Sofa prices. Generally, the price of modern fabric L-shaped sofas is generally around 4,000, with shapes. , excluding those with creativity and carvings; the general price of solid wood Chinese-style sofas is around 9,000 (1 2 3), except those with precious wood, carvings, etc.; the price of leather sofas is generally around 9,000 (L type), except for those with European carved leather (1 2 3).
Generally speaking, you need to pay attention to the above issues.
Question 4: How to choose a sofa in the living room? What are the precautions? Sofa is an indispensable piece of furniture in the living room. However, many people blindly choose living room sofas, resulting in uncoordinated decoration styles. Home 100 Network summarizes several living room sofa purchasing strategies for everyone. I hope everyone can buy a sofa that suits them.
1. Types of sofa materials
Leather sofas and solid wood sofas are more expensive, while fabric and rattan sofas are cheaper than other types of sofas. Solid wood and rattan sofas are relatively hard and are more suitable for Chinese decoration styles in most cases, while leather and fabric sofas are more comfortable and suitable for Western decoration styles. However, leather sofas are generally deeper and wider than fabric sofas and take up more space.
2. Sofa style
A single sofa saves the most space; a corner sofa has a high degree of comfort, and can sleep two people if guests come; a modular sofa is the most space-saving. It takes up more space and looks more noble.
3. Sofa cushions
There are two types of sofa cushions: movable and fixed. Movable cushions can be placed in different positions, but they need to be organized, otherwise they will look messy. When choosing a sofa, you must pay attention to the quality of the cushion filling. Some cushions deflate after being used for a period of time, which is ugly and useless.
4. Functions of sofas
Small apartments should pay more attention to the comprehensive functions of sofas. There are many sofas on the market specially designed for small apartments. Some sofas can be opened into beds. Some sofas can have storage space, and some sofas can be assembled and disassembled freely, and can be put away when space is needed.
5. The quality of the sofa
The quality of the sofa mainly depends on two aspects. One is whether the wooden frame of the sofa is strong. When purchasing a sofa, look at the width of the wooden slats used in the wooden structure of the sofa. Generally speaking, the heavier the sofa, the better the quality. Another aspect is the elasticity of the sponge. The rebound effect of the sponge must be good, otherwise the seat cushion of the sofa will collapse after a period of use.
Question 5: What should you pay attention to when purchasing a solid wood fabric sofa? In recent years, fabric sofas have become more and more popular because of their changing colors and vivid pattern designs, coupled with their soft comfort. If you have just moved to a new home and replaced it with brand-new furniture, then match it with an art sofa is a good choice. After visiting major furniture stores, there are so many fabric sofas. Perhaps because there are so many styles to choose from, I am spoiled for choice. Now here are some basic purchasing tips:
(1) Depending on the height and weight of individuals, the feeling of the same sofa will be different. It is recommended that when purchasing, you must try sitting, lying down, and sleeping in different postures. Just treat it as if it were in your own living room. Try all the postures and habits you think of to know whether this sofa is suitable or not. you.
(2) When choosing the size of the sofa, everyone should pay attention to leaving space for plugs, curtains, etc. The color of the sofa should be coordinated with the style of the room. If you are not sure about the color and style, you can ask a designer to help you choose. This is a good way.
(3) For cotton, linen or pure cotton fabric (printed) sofas, you are most worried that the sofa cover will shrink, deform or even fade after being washed. It is recommended to ask clearly about the composition of the sofa fabric when purchasing, whether the fabric has been pre-shrunk and what kind of washing method is suitable to avoid embarrassment. You can also use a white paper towel to rub the sofa fabric vigorously when purchasing, and observe whether there is color on the paper towel to determine the color of the fabric.
(4) Check whether the sofa frame is strong, which is related to the service life and quality assurance of the sofa. Especially for families with children, stability is the first priority. The specific method is to lift one end of the three-seat sofa and pay attention to whether the legs of the other end are off the ground when the lifted part is 10 cm away from the ground. The inspection will be considered passed only when the other side is also off the ground.
(5) Look at the quality of the filling material of the sofa. The specific method is to press the armrests and backrests of the sofa with your hands. If you can clearly feel the presence of the wooden frame, it proves that the filling density of this sofa is not high and the elasticity is not good enough. The wooden frame of the sofa that is easily pressed will also accelerate the wear of the sofa cover and reduce the service life of the sofa.
(6) Check the resilience of the sofa. The specific method is to let your body sit on the sofa in a free fall position, and your body will be bounced by the sofa cushions at least 2 times. This will ensure that the sofa has good elasticity and a longer service life.
(7) Pay attention to the details of the sofa. Open the zipper of the matching pillow, observe and touch the lining and filling inside; lift the sofa to see whether the bottom treatment is meticulous, whether the sofa legs are straight, whether the surface treatment is smooth, whether there are anti-slip pads on the bottom of the legs, and other details. A good sofa also maintains exquisite quality in details.
(8) Feel the surface of the sofa with your hands to see if there is any skin damage. Observe whether the color of the fabrics of the entire sofa is uniform, whether the seams are strong and flat, and whether the workmanship is fine.
Question 6: When choosing a sofa, what should you pay attention to? 1. Quality issues. If the quality is not good, many problems will occur after a few years of use. So be sure to buy branded ones, such as left and right sofas, with guaranteed quality.
Second, the color, if it matches well, the house will be more beautiful
Third, after-sales service, again: There are brands to choose from, and problems can be solved promptly.
Question 7: How to choose a fabric sofa? What should you pay attention to when choosing a fabric sofa? Personally, I feel that the left and right fabric sofas are really good, with many styles, fashionable and generous. I went to the left and right sofa store last time. I have chosen three models and I like them all very much. It is difficult to make a decision. I plan to discuss it with my husband and buy a set next week. In fact, it’s not just about the left and right sofas, there are generally good differences in what you should pay attention to when choosing a fabric sofa~
The style conforms to the decoration style
Any sofa must be suitable for your own decoration style. Only with proper matching can they complement each other and achieve perfect decorative effect.
The grade of fabric can be determined by the washing method
Sofa fabrics can be divided into domestic and imported. According to material, sofa fabrics can be divided into five series. The first is cotton and linen fabrics, which are rough, breathable and cool, but feel rough; the second is pure cotton fabrics, which feel comfortable; the third is suede-based three-proof fabrics, which are anti-static, oil-proof, and anti- Dirty, also known as imitation deerskin velvet. In addition, there are chenille velvet and cut velvet, which are relatively high-end. Products imported from Europe and the United States are of high quality, with small color difference, high color fastness and high integrity. The surface is generally specially treated and has anti-static, flame-retardant and other characteristics.
High-end fabrics often require dry cleaning. For example, the salesperson said that it can be washed by hand or machine at will, and most of them are blended fabrics. It is best to dry the fabric directly after washing. It is best not to use a washing machine to dehydrate the fabric to avoid damaging the texture of the fabric.
Workmanship Check the quality by sitting and lifting
The workmanship of the sofa determines the quality. How to check the quality of the sofa from the workmanship of the sofa? Consumers need to focus on the quality of the materials and frames of the sofa.
Inner materials mainly include backrests and seat cushions. Generally, good sofas will use high-resilience and high-density polyurethane sponges, and the seat surface and backrest will have down components, which are more comfortable and can easily fit various people's body shapes. Experts suggest that in addition to choosing high-density sponges, you should also choose good drawstrings and serpentine springs. Generally speaking, the ribs of imported good drawstrings are round, while some domestic drawstrings are flat. When looking at them, consumers can also identify the quality by looking at these threads.
Generally, the frames of sofas are made of solid wood, mostly birch. This kind of wood has high strength, high density, and large load-bearing capacity. In addition, if necessary, you can ask the salesperson to open the base cabinet and take a look. The wood must be smooth, without bark, breakage, insect infestation, erosion, etc., and it must be straight horizontally and vertically, without round bends.
In terms of sitting feeling, the internal filling should feel smooth and full, there should be no wrinkles at the seams, and the patterns of parquet and plaid should be spliced. In addition, you can also lift one corner of the sofa. If the other triangles are also lifted, it means that the overall structure is relatively stable. If the other corners don't move at all, there is something wrong with the structure.
Question 8: What should you pay attention to when buying a sofa? Eight things to pay attention to when buying a sofa.
1. The size is suitable for your living room. When choosing a sofa on the market, you will find that there are many sizes of sofas, hundreds of them. Brand sofa stores generally use exhibition halls to display their products. It should be noted that the exhibition hall gives us a relatively wide visual sense. If you only use the naked eye to estimate the size of the sofa, there will often be a big deviation, so there will be a situation where the sofa you buy is too big and the living room It becomes overcrowded; the sofa is too small and out of proportion to the overall space. Therefore, when choosing a sofa, in order to avoid being misled by the wide exhibition hall, you should first understand the area of ??your living room or bedroom, and then choose a suitable sofa.
2. Respect your family’s living habits. When looking at the sofa, you should also fully consider some of your family’s daily living habits. For example, the elderly like to lean on the sofa and read newspapers, children like to eat snacks on the sofa, and young people watch TV. You like to drink some coffee from time to time. In this case, you can choose a sofa with an open grid and armrests combined into one, or a sofa with a movable shelf. Use the open grid or shelf for storage, which not only saves space but also It is convenient for living, especially in small apartments where space is not allowed.
3. Style and Decoration When choosing a sofa, don’t buy it immediately when you see a beautiful sofa in the store. After I bought it, I realized that the style that looked great in the model room was very awkward in my own home. When choosing a sofa, you must pay attention to the harmony between the sofa style and the overall decoration style. Compared with the basic decoration of the home, the sofa not only functions, but also plays a role in setting off the environment. Therefore, the style and color of the sofa must be consistent with the main color of the home decoration and decoration.
For example, if the home decoration tends to be modern, then when choosing a sofa, don’t be influenced by too many retro styles; if a leather sofa is placed in a pastoral-style home, it will obviously be extremely incongruous.
4. Choose the sofa flexibly. The back is one of the most sensitive parts of the human body. The depth of the sofa directly determines whether people feel comfortable. The common depth of sofas on the market is 95 centimeters, which is suitable for people with a height of less than 1.7 meters. People with a height of over 1.7 meters are best to choose a sofa with a depth of 105 centimeters, which can completely relieve the tension in the back. If young people are usually under a lot of work pressure, you can choose a sofa with an extra large depth. For example, if the depth is deepened to 125 cm, your whole body can completely relax and sink into the sofa.
5. Bearing capacity is an important indicator. The bearing capacity of the sofa determines the service life of the sofa, and the frame of the sofa directly determines the bearing capacity of the sofa. To choose a durable sofa, you must first check whether the frame of the sofa is durable and not easily deformed. The frame of the sofa must be made of solid wood, and imported eucalyptus is the first choice among solid wood frames. The main frame of the sofa made of eucalyptus wood can last for at least 6 years, which is incomparable with ordinary wood.
6. The rebound is not easy to deform. If there are children at home, and the children usually like to jump on the sofa, families should pay attention. Then when choosing a sofa, you must consider whether the sofa is easy to deform. Traditional sofa frames generally only use snake-shaped springs. Such sofas are prone to deformation and collapse after being used for a period of time, thus affecting the appearance and use of the sofa. Nowadays, sofas with better resilience generally use a combination of snake springs and bandages. In this way, the firmness and resilience of the sofa will be doubled. Even if your children jump around on the sofa, the seat cushion will not be easily deformed.
7. Pay attention to the wear-resistant cleaning performance. If there are elderly people or children at home, you should choose sofa fabrics with good stain resistance and wear-resistant properties. In addition to leather fabrics, suede and twill fabrics are the first choices. This material has a delicate feel similar to animal fur. Its warp and weft lines have a high density, are wear-resistant, and are not easily deformed. It has strong waterproof, anti-fouling, anti-oil stain, and anti-tear functions, making it very suitable for families with pets. At the same time, when purchasing a sofa, you can also customize an extra sofa cover to facilitate frequent replacement and cleaning.
8. Good cushions for comfort. Sofas that are too hard or too soft are not suitable for normal sitting and lying on the human body, and will have a certain impact on the human spine. The comfortable sofas on the market now use new types of cushions made of sponge and down. The bottom of the frame of the sofa is first laid with multiple layers of sponges with different resilience to ensure that the cushions are evenly stressed during use. At the same time, down is added to the sponge. , this can solve the problem of softness or hardness in the traditional sofa cushion technology, and the newly added down can maximize the comfort needs of the human body while ensuring the load-bearing of the sofa. ...gt;gt;
Question 9: What details should you pay attention to when buying a sofa? 1: Look at the brand, 2: Look at the style, 3: Look at the leather 4: Look at the humanization of the design and the sitting feel 4: Look at the inner materials {sponge, look at the wooden frame} 5: Look at the after-sales and service, and the most important thing is to see if there is any Obtain environmental certification. Federal Mini Sofa is currently the only brand in China that has obtained CNAS environmental certification, a national enterprise technology certification center, a professional sofa brand with a 28-year brand history, and is the first choice for leather sofas.
Question 10: What should I pay attention to when buying a sofa on Taobao? Sofas are a highly priced item and require logistics. I think it’s better to buy them locally. If you definitely want to buy them on Taobao, compare several. The key is color. Pictures on the Internet have color differences. As for the material, you must understand it clearly and communicate with the seller. As for the size, you must use a ruler to compare it at home to get a rough idea.
