Posted on - 6th December 2019

There is something undeniably luxurious about a corner sofa. And not only do they look the part, but they provide ample space, too. Whether you have a big family to seat on movie nights and special occasions or just fancy somewhere to sprawl out after a long, hard day. You can’t go wrong with a corner sofa, that’s for sure.

How To Choose The Best Corner Sofa

The only thing you’ll really have to consider when deciding on a corner sofa is: which one? Here at Toons, we supply a wide range of corner groups and corner sofas in a vast array of materials, colours and designs. Need some help making your choice? Read on to find out more…

Size Matters

Before you fall headlong down the rabbit hole of searching for corner sofas, make sure you’ve measured your space first! Knowing how large or small your sofa needs to be will help you make the best decision. Don’t forget to also take into consideration how wide and deep you want the sofa, too.

While corner sofas can be an excellent way to maximise on space, or even fill a large room, sometimes the shapes and sizes just aren’t practical. Make sure you discover this before you buy so you’re not disappointed.

Whose Side Are You On?

Once you know the dimensions of your room, have a think about whether you would prefer a left-hand facing or right-hand facing design. Right-hand facing corner sofas are when the long section of the sofa is on the right-hand side as you look at the sofa. Left hand facing corner sofas are when the long section of the sofa is on the left-hand side as you look at the sofa.

Usually, you won’t have to compromise on style when choosing this, as many designs are available in both configurations. But it’s worth knowing what your preferences are so you can ensure that your new sofa fits!

Rise And Recline

Many corner sofas now come with the recliner options, to help you really lounge in style. These can either be electric or manual. These come in all sorts of configurations, so if this is an important factor for you be sure to shop around to ensure you find the thing you’re looking for.

Fabric or Leather

This timeless questions come up regardless of whether you’re buying a corner sofa, corner sofa or indeed any other seating option. Of course, there is no right and wrong with this, it all comes down to personal choice.

Leather sofas come in very different styles. Some are modern and contemporary, others look more classical and traditional. Similarly, fabric sofas are available in a wide range of styles, patterns and colours to suit your interior design style.
