FAQs on Traditional Sofas

What sizes do traditional sofas come in?

Traditional sofas typically range from 2-seater (around 150cm wide) to 4-seater (over 250cm wide), plus corner and chaise configurations. Measure your doorway and room length before ordering. Account for 30cm clearance from walls for comfortable movement and cleaning access.

Fabric choice depends on use. Genuine leather suits formal rooms and wipes clean easily; velvet adds luxury but needs regular brushing; faux leather is budget-friendly and stain-resistant; natural fabrics offer breathability and warmth. Check durability ratings and lifestyle fit.

Most traditional sofas arrive within 2–4 weeks. Express delivery options are available on selected in-stock models—check the delivery badge on product pages. Delivery dates confirm at checkout and most sofas arrive pre-assembled or in large sections needing minimal setup.

Yes, we offer a 30-day returns policy on all traditional sofas. The item must be unused, in original condition and packaging. Contact our customer service team to arrange collection and theyll guide you through the full returns process.

Traditional sofas feature rolled arms, deep seats, turned wooden legs and ornate detailing, suiting period or formal rooms. Modern sofas have clean lines, lower profiles and minimal decoration, fitting contemporary spaces. Traditional designs prioritise comfort and visual weight; modern emphasises space efficiency.

Vacuum weekly using an upholstery brush to restore pile direction. Blot spills immediately with a clean cloth—never rub. Use a soft dry cloth for dusting. For deeper cleaning, use a specialist velvet cleaner or contact a professional upholstery cleaner annually.

Yes, but choose carefully. A 2-seater or compact 3-seater traditional sofa (under 200cm) works in smaller spaces. Avoid deep seats and bulky rolled arms. Opt for exposed wooden legs rather than a skirted base to create visual lightness and floor visibility.

Traditional sofas typically support 300–400kg total weight depending on frame construction and suspension. Check the product specification sheet for exact weight limits. Distribute weight evenly across seats and avoid jumping. Hardwood frames with eight-way hand-tied springs offer maximum durability.

Hardwoods like beech and oak are stronger and longer-lasting than softwoods. Check product details for frame type—hardwood frames typically last 10+ years with proper care. Eight-way hand-tied springs and double-dowelled joints indicate superior construction quality and longevity.

Yes, we can deliver to upstairs flats. Our delivery team will attempt to manoeuvre sofas up staircases. If stairs are too narrow or access is blocked, well assemble the sofa in sections on-site. Confirm your address details at checkout and contact us with specific access concerns beforehand.

Faux or genuine leather is more practical for pets and children—stains wipe clean instantly and claws cause less damage than on fabric. Velvet and pale fabrics stain easily and show marks. Consider dark faux leather for durability and low maintenance if you have active household members.
