Guide To Buying A Loveseat
No matter how large or small your living space, a loveseat is a must-have piece of furniture that greatly enhances the coziness and comfort of your home. The versatility of a loveseat is what makes it such a popular choice of furniture. It gets its name from the fact that it perfectly fits two people, but it is also ideal for a single person, or even for a family wanting some extra seating space. Once you purchase a loveseat, you are likely to keep using it for at least a few years. So make sure that you put enough thought into your purchase, and buy a loveseat that you never get tired of. Here is a look at the most important factors to consider when buying a loveseat
- Size: Even though loveseats are designed to seat two people, their sizes vary quite a bit. Be sure to measure the space where you intend to place the loveseat, so that you do not end up with one that is too small or too big for your intended purpose.
- Material: The material of the loveseat is an important consideration that will impact the appearance as well as the cost and versatility of loveseat. Leather is usually considered to be the most superior material, but can be quite expensive. Microfiber is a great option if you are looking for ease of maintenance, while fabric is ideal for those looking for a wider choice of options in pattern and color.
- Frame Strength: When shopping for loveseats, it is easy to get caught up in the appearance of the piece of furniture, without paying attention to the quality of the frame. However, the strength of the frame should be duly considered. If your main consideration is long-lasting furniture, look for frames made of real wood versus plastic or metal. Also, make sure that the edges of the frame are securely screwed and not merely glued.
- Springs: Most loveseats have preassembled wire springs that contribute to their comfort. You can determine the quality of these springs by feeling them through the upholstery. Make sure that they feel comfortable and sturdy, as this indicates that the loveseat is superiorly constructed and will last long.
- Fillings: The fillings that go into the loveseat determine the comfort and price of the furniture. Polyurethane foam is a good option if your major consideration is affordability. Polyester fiber, although inexpensive, is an inferior option since it tends to flatten out quickly. High-resilient foam offers a good balance between comfort and affordability. It is also superior and lasts long without getting flat.
