How do I know if a corner sofa will fit in my living room?

To determine if a corner sofa will fit, you should measure the total wall length on both sides of the corner, the room depth , and the clearance for doors and walkways. It is recommended to allow at least 90 cm of clearance for walkways to avoid blocking doors, noting that these sofas typically work best in rooms over 4 metres wide.

What is the difference between left-hand and right-hand corner sofas?

The orientation is determined by the position of the protruding section, or chaise, when you are facing the sofa . If the extended section is on your left , it is a left-hand facing (LHF) sofa, and if it is on your right , it is a right-hand facing (RHF) sofa.

What size are standard corner sofas?

Do corner sofas define open-plan spaces?

Yes, in open-plan homes, a corner sofa serves as a visual anchor that naturally zones the living area and separates it from the kitchen or dining spaces without the need for extra furniture.

What is the difference between fixed-back and scatter-back sofas?

Which sofa material is most durable for family homes?

Durability depends on construction and fabric rating. Performance polyester is great for resisting staining and fading, especially from sunlight. Leather is long-lasting and easy to wipe clean, while velvet offers luxury but may require more maintenance. For busy Irish households with children or pets, tightly woven fabrics or protected leather are often safest.

How long should a good quality sofa last?

A well-built sofa with a hardwood frame should last at least 7–15 years. Higher-end frames and quality foam cushions can extend lifespan further. Regular cushion rotation and correct cleaning significantly increase durability.

What cushion filling is best: foam, fibre, or feather?
