How to choose the right sofa

Your sofa is the centrepiece of your living room - so you’ll want to make sure you choose one you’ll love for the long haul. But with 1000s of options available, how do you decide which one is right for you? Here’s some tips and advice from our sofa experts…

Here at DFS, there’s plenty of different ways to find your thing. If you have a rough idea of what you want already, you can browse leather sofas, corner sofas, or even explore exclusive sofa brands like French Connection or Grand Designs right here on our website. If you’re unsure of your style and need more inspiration, discover your sofa style and explore our six distinct style groups to help you narrow down your search. And if you’d rather talk through your options with a sofa expert, you can chat to one of our advisors online, or visit us in-person at your local DFS store to give our sofas the all-important sit test.

The most important factor in choosing a sofa shape is ensuring that it will fit within your space - but beyond that, your options are endless. Perhaps you’d like a traditional two seater or three seater sofa - or maybe even both, in combination with an armchair, to create the perfect three piece suite. Maybe putting your feet up is a big priority for you, and your ideal seat might be a chaise end sofa, a recliner sofa, or simply have a matching footstool. Or perhaps all you want is a comfy seat for everyone, and you’d love a huge luxurious corner sofa, corner group, or even a modular sofa. For more help deciding which of the many options might be your thing, check out our sofa buying guide.

That’s the million-pound question, isn’t it? Generally, it’s all to do with your own personal preference, as well as your lifestyle. A popular choice for recliner sofas in particular, leather sofas are low-maintenance, hard-wearing, and luxurious - there’s nothing quite like the feel of a sumptuous leather. If you’re looking for more options in colours and textures, a fabric sofa might be your best bet. There’s much more choice when it comes to different fabrics - from classic linens to luxurious velvets, cosy cords to pretty prints - and many of our sofas are available in hard-wearing fabrics that really stand up to hectic family life. And don’t worry - with most DFS sofas available in both leather and fabric options, your choice won’t hold you back from choosing your favourite style.

The best style for a sofa for you is simple - it’s one you really love. Perhaps that’s the scroll arms and buttoning of a traditional sofa; the plush velvet and pillow back of a luxury sofa; or the sleek sophistication and refined craftsmanship of a modern sofa. Maybe your thing is timeless style that transcends time, a mid-century modern look, or simply the ultimate relaxation of a plump leather recliner. Whether it’s a cosy fabric two seater just for you and your beau, or a huge corner group for the whole family to lounge on - with 1000s of options to choose from, DFS definitely has your thing, and we can’t wait to help you find it.
