How to Choose the Right Leather Sofa For Living Room?

A leather sofa, made from animals' skin, is a popular sofa on the market. With excellent breathability and flexibility, it is very comfortable to sit on. Compared to fabric sofa, it's more durable and harder to get dirty. It usually has simple color and looks classy and luxurious. If you are interested in a leather sofa, you must know that it can be expensive. Therefore, you need to purchase under some guidance. That's what we will present you, as a professional furniture manufacturer.

Budget

Firstly, you need to consider your budget. As we all know, a leather sofa is much more expensive than a fabric sofa. It requires not only expensive leather material but also needs about 20 complicated processes to come into being. What's more, the percentage of leather covering also affects the leather sofa's value. If you want genuine leather to cover every inch of your sofa, you should prepare a large budget. If you want to save money, you can choose the type covered with artificial leather.

Is there any expected wear and scratch?

Secondly, you need to reckon with some risks on your sofa. Pets love to scratch the sofa. It is suggested not to buy a leather sofa if you are keeping or are about to keep a cat, or you will change your sofa before long. Even a good quality-leather sofa can not endure a scratch. So for your sofa's sake, never keep a cat.

Leather colors

Thirdly, the color of the leather is also an essential factor. Leather can not be dyed as easily as fabric, so leather sofa usually has simple colors. Therefore, the leather sofa will bring a large chunk of pure color to your living room. You must pick a color consistent with your living room style. Usually, the color of the leather sofa involves black, reddish-brown, and coffee. They are easy to match, and one of them can be your best choice.

Where to place the sofa

Fourthly, you can have a general idea of where to place your leather sofa. Generally speaking, the leather sofa is placed in the middle of the living room. If you have a spacious living room, you can buy a big U-shape leather sofa to take up the center. You can also buy a smaller leather sofa to put against the wall, making your room seem bigger. Anyway, a leather sofa in your living room can greatly affect the atmosphere of your house, showing decency and dignity.

Is maintenance easy or not?

Last but not least, you should also think about maintaining your leather sofa. With proper maintenance, a leather sofa can have a long lifespan. There may be some dust or dirt on your leather sofa. You can use a cloth and lightly wipe where it folds. If the cloth is too wet, it may cause your leather sofa some aging problems. You can choose a sofa with softer leather to avoid this problem. You may also need the maintenance fluid, which can do great help to polish and maintain your leather sofa.
