Choose the sofa

How to choose the sofa

The sofa is the main element of the living room, which often corresponds to the entrance hall of the house, so it is very important to choose the right one.
To determine which is the most suitable one must first decidewhere it should be and what will be the passage spaces around it.

Secondly, one should about how they want to use it. If we are going to use it everyday, we must strike a balance between aesthetics and practicality.
We must then consider if you need some extra beds, in which case you will have to guide the choice to a sofa bed.

After considering these factors you can decide which is the model that best suits your needs: classic or modern sofa, sectional sofa, loveseat, sofa in fabric or leather.
Once you choose your model, you will need to focus on the structural elements to be evaluated at the time of purchase.

To be a quality sofa, the structure must be made of solid wood and not in chipboard, so you have a guaranteed long-life.

The padding can be made of synthetic material such as polyurethane foam, latex foam or silicone flakes, or natural material, usually goose, which has longer service life.
The best solution, however, is to mix both materials in such a way that the sitting is more dense and not plunge as it would happen if it were only of feather, and the back rest softer and therefore more comfortable.

The coating can be made of different materials. You can use natural fabrics like cotton, linen or wool that, in the case where the coating is removable it can also be washed in the washing machine. Alternatively, there are synthetic fabrics, which are much more resistant, but are not as breathable.
Very popular for modern sofas is the alcantara, which is not a fabric, but a composite material used for siding.
Finally we can not forget leather, which is without doubt the strongest material but, of course, it also has a higher price.

The new sofa collection 2014 by Berto Salotti are an excellent choice for anyone who is about to make a new purchase.
