But even the highest quality upholstered furniture may not be comfortable enough, if you ignore the following points.

• Check upon purchase. You can appreciate the density and quality of filling only by experience. The best solution is to sit or even lie down on the soft base of the sofa. In most cases, sellers do not mind.
• Type of filler. It is generally accepted that the best option is a spring block. But in practice, high-quality high-quality foam rubber can provide less deformation and greater comfort. Products with cheap spring blocks should be avoided, as the seat is quickly deformed, and such a purchase will not deliver joy.
• Quality retractable items. Good furniture has plywood boxes. The manufacture of these components from hardboard indicates a low quality sofa.
• Furniture configuration. Choosing between a corner, modular or direct sofa, it is better to give preference to the first 2 options. It is important to note that the richer the configuration and the more transforming elements, the easier it is to fit the decor into the interior. Direct sofas are much less comfortable and not too practical to use.
• Rear wall trim. It is not permissible for the rear part to be left without skin. Such a sofa can only be placed close to the wall.
• Type of coverage. If there are children in the house, pets should choose sofas with a fabric lining impregnated with Teflon or covered with it on top. Such fabrics do not absorb moisture, greatly facilitate the care of furniture.
