| It’s your sofa and it’s going to be one of the most important pieces of furniture you’ll ever own. It will form the centerpiece of your lounge and be as important as any member of your family.
Choosing the wrong sofa can be catastrophic. You might never find that comfortable sweet spot that feels specifically made for you and watching TV will just never be the same. To combat this, many online furniture retailers now provide modular options to ensure customers get it right first time and every time. Modular options can include choice over everything including: styles, fabrics, legs, backs, arm heights and seat cushions. After all, you really don’t want to end up with the same boring, mass-produced stuff that your friends and neighbours have. So, where should you look? 1. Ikea The king of flat-pack offers five modular ranges to choose from and 17 fabric choices so you can pick and mix pieces to best suit your living space. Don’t want to wait for delivery or assemble it yourself? You can also get your sofa off the shelf in store, if it’s in stock, or use its assembly service.
2. John Lewis This bastion of department store reliability offers sofas that while not modular, come in a whopping array of options. With 50 sofa shapes and sizes, three leg finishes and over 400 fabrics to choose from, there’s more than enough to keep you busy.
3. The English Sofa Company With 30 different designs, some of which are modular, and over 200 fabric choices, this is an alternative to the high street worthy of consideration.
4. Nabru Specializing in modular sofas that they guarantee to fit any awkward space (as well as regular ones), this online firm certainly lives up to its name (urban spelt backwards, get it?).
