Answer 2

Hey, may i suggest that:

1. Focus on the frame of sofa.

Sway the sofa from every side of it to see if it’s stable. Then uncover the base clothe to have a look at the frame. If the wood is collected by wedging each other, not by nailing, it would be good. In addition, make sure all the wood is not decayed, bitten by insects, scared or with bark. The wood should be glabrous and hard.

2. Judge the quality of the internal bedding of sofa

Recently, the back and underside of high-class sofas are framed by crossed nylon bank and springs, matted by high-elasticity foams, Spray-bonded cotton and light-body foams. This configuration makes the sofa very flexible, soft and comfortable; while as per motherboard of middle-class sofa, most of them are MDF, the mattress is medium-density foam and Spray-bonded cotton. As a result, they are a bit hard and the flexibility is not good.

3. Pay attention to the lining and sewing of sofa

Leather sofa: leather of the sofa is very important. Genuine leather sofa can be classified by full leather sofa and half leather sofa. Producing a set of full leather sofa consumes the skin of 10 scalpers. So full leather sofa is very expensive. However, the permeability of this kind of sofa is very good, what’s more, they are environment-friendly. Recently, full leather sofa is very popular in Europe and America. Accordingly, in order to cut down the cost, people use PVC and PU on the back, bottom and some other ulterior parts of the sofa, just use the genuine leather to cover the position where users frequently touch, it’s really economic and substantial. Leather used for sofa can be hide of scalper and hide of buffalo, also, classified by layer, there are top leather and split leather. While classified by country of original, they are made-in-China or imported. Among the imported scalper leather, top leather made in Italy is the best, they are strictly complaint with the environment protection requirement, good flexibility and permeability, high mechanical strength, especially, the tearing strength and tensile strength is very high. People often choose scalper top leather to produce high quality genuine leather sofa. Generally speaking, good leather should be luxuriant, lustrous and flexible, the texture and lines of it is exquisite.

Fabric sofa: linings of the fabric sofa should be thick, linings which weigh more than 300g/sq.m should wear well, if attrite it 1200 times, it should keep smooth. Linings of fabric sofa classified by original country, there should be made-in-China and Imported linings. Many linings from American-European manufacturer are fadeless, sound-quality and with a little chromatic aberration, some high-class linings are even put in special progress to heighten anti-fouling capacity. The imported high-class linings are also fire retardant and antistatic. When purchases fabric sofas, should make sure that the thread of the linings is slender, dose and smooth, tight feeling; with the sewing average, smooth, straight and dose.

4. Check with the cover of sofa.

We should check if the fabric match the material inside well and smooth. especially the arms, seat cushion and back cushion should handle in nature ,without pleat. If the arm is rotundity or semicircle, we should check if there is enough material inside and looks well. If the is flowers or quadrillein fabric, we should check if the joint is connected correctly. The flowers and the quadrille should be symmetrical, then seat down and feel if the radian of the seat and back fit for the people configuration. for example. European people need big size sofa, while Asian people need small size.

5. Put eyes on the foam

The high quality sofa needs the cushion foam with density at least 30KG/CBM, accordingly, the back cushion with the density of 25kg/CBM. Generally speaking, with the same density, we make the foam softer, so that the sofa become comfortable and durable.
