The best sofa brands
“Where can you buy good sofas?” - Regardless of whether, moving or a change of scenery, we all ask ourselves this question at some point. Even if your budget is (still) limited, it never hurts to do some interior research. As we all know, inspiration doesn’t hurt.
The best-known and most popular sofa brands include names such as freistil by Rolf Benz, Machalke, Himolla, Bretz, Brühl, ferm Living, &Tradition, HAY, Kartell and Vitra. However, these sofa brands are only a fraction of the sheer number of suppliers. Finally, some furniture stores have their own collections, such as Westwing's “Westwing Collection” or the own creations from Ikea, Poco & Co.
These and many other popular sofa manufacturers can be found here, among others:

Shopping guide: What should you consider before and after your purchase?
No matter which piece of furniture you buy, there are a few things to consider before and after the purchase so that you neither regret your purchase decision nor are forced to invest in something new again shortly afterwards due to unnecessary problems. Longevity also means saving money.
Before purchasing, it is important to know what style of sofa you want. It starts with the type of sofa and ends with the material. 3-seater or XXL sofa, leather cover or fabric cover, space-saving corner couch or big sofa including ottoman - decisions about decisions. Here are yours, the available living space (, large rooms, etc.) as well as the importance of storage space, seating area, seat height, seating comfort and the associated upholstery are crucial. If all of these points have been taken into account, then you can be reasonably sure that your favorite sofa will fit well into your four walls in terms of design and size.
After the purchase, hopefully it won't be quick to buy again. As with all upholstered furniture, act with appropriate caution. If you buy the white velvet sofa, you have to be more careful than with the black woven couch. Measures for “protection” would beand cushions that reduce wear and tear, as well as side or coffee tables on which glasses, plates, books, etc. can be placed instead of remaining on the sofa.
Shopping for a sofa online: tips & tricks
“Buy a couch in an online shop – absolutely crazy, never.” Absolutely understandable, but the fact is that the journey to the nearest furniture store is sometimes long, there is simply not enough time or you simply cannot find a model that you like in your personal area. Here are a few tips and tricks to make shopping for sofas online easier.
- To estimate the space the couch will take up, its length and width can be marked on the floor using tape or tape. If you still have moving boxes lying around, you can add them in a comparable amount
- Many online shops offer pictures of the furniture with dimensions as well as in different positions and perspectives
- Sometimes you can use your smartphone and go to the website of the store or the brand where the sofa is availableuse to place it virtually in the room
- If the model is available in a store near you or someone you know already has it, just check it out there and try it out.
When does a sofa become worn out?
On average, a sofa lasts eight years. A high-quality sofa even lasts up to 15 years. Of course, these are just guidelines. Factors such as the wear and tear on the piece of furniture as well as the quality of the fabric are crucial. If you have pets who like to lie on the sofa, or a large household with one or more children who like to turn the armrests into a playground, leather sofas, modern sofas, etc. can wear out more quickly.
Which sofa bed is the best?
A couch with bed function is something that many are looking for. Because only a few people have the space or the budget for a guest bed, let alone a complete extra room. In the past, sofa beds often had the connotation of being “not nice” or “disturbing” in the furnishings. That has changed, because today they have a modern design, a practical bed box or sometimes even an integrated spring mattress.
