Corner orthopedic sofas: features, types and selection

Corner orthopedic sofas occupy a very solid sector of the furniture market - and not only in our country. You need to know their main features and varieties. Otherwise, it will not work to make the right choice. And this is not a situation where you can rely on luck or a general aesthetic taste.

The reason why angular orthopedic sofas are readily chosen for daily sleep is understandable. They very effectively support the spine and avoid many problems with the musculoskeletal system. Night and daytime sleep are also normalizing, which is very important now that life is so unpredictable and rugged. Orthopedic sofas are being produced by an increasing number of manufacturers, so the poverty of the range is gradually becoming a thing of the past.

Speaking about the main properties, it is necessary to point to such moments characteristic of orthopedic corner sofas:

• suitability even for small-sized apartments and separate rooms;

• comfort is not worse than full-size bed beds;

• the suitability of a powerful frame even for regular use over time;

• excellent micro-ventilation of the sleeping base;

• the need for selection only after consulting a doctor (if back pathologies have already developed);

• increased cost compared to "simple" products;

• increased (in relation to direct sofas) size and more difficult transportation.

You should not think that all sofas with an orthopedic base are exactly the same.In fact, they can vary greatly in performance and practical properties. It should be borne in mind that there are no sofas with an orthopedic berth based on dependent springs. No matter how sophisticated the marketers of companies producing Bonnel blocks are, it is technically impossible to give them the necessary qualities. But the variation of the type of angle is quite acceptable.

Most often there are L-shaped and U-shaped structures. The choice between them is largely a matter of personal taste.

The gradation of sofas by the layout mechanism deserves attention. The easiest and cheapest of all non-folding designs. But they also look boring most often; using them is impractical. Quite often, the clamshell mechanism is used. It is quite simple and easy to use, the only negative is the lack of reliability of such a design.

As a permanent berth, you can choose an orthopedic sofa with a block of independent springs and dolphin type mechanism. Such a solution is cost-effective and relatively comfortable. But you need to understand that when using low-quality wood, such a sofa will not last long.

When choosing upholstery, you need to be guided by its color and relevance in a particular interior. According to experts, a coating with approximately equal proportions of artificial and natural fibers is best suited. Upholstery is often used to give intriguing features. jacquard based. Purely natural materials may look even better, but they are rarely durable. And purely synthetic fabrics are not always comfortable.

In addition to jacquard, you can use:

• arpatek;

• tapestry;

• skin (recommended for kitchens);

• microfiber;

• shenill;

• flock.

In the low-cost segment, products deserve attention Pinskdrev company. She has a long experience in the production of upholstered furniture and is constantly improving her products. Among Russian firms, it’s worth taking a closer look not only at traditional leaders - “Shature-Furniture” and “Borovichi-Furniture”but also to recently achieved great popularity Rival brand.

Also, good market positions are occupied by products under the brands:

• Askona;

• Moon Trade;

• Ormatek;

• Three.

The most important point when choosing an angular orthopedic sofa is its safety. Therefore, it makes no sense to purchase such a product without familiarizing yourself with quality certificates. If you already have problems with your back or musculoskeletal system, only a qualified orthopedist after the examination will call the necessary parameters for the berth. In this case, external design features should be taken into account. She should like and harmoniously enter into a certain interior.

We must not forget about the linear dimensions of the furniture. She must enter well in the designated place both in the open and in the folded state. The required dimensions are fixed in advance using a tape measure.

There are some more important recommendations:

• never buy an orthopedic sofa in the market or in the “basement store”;

• inspect hidden and inaccessible places;

• evaluate all fixtures;

• evaluate tissue tension;

• to devote more time to close acquaintance with a particular sofa.
