1: COLOR RULES.
Look for colors that express your personal style or work with colors you already have in your room because color will be the first element you respond to.
2: THE COMFORT TEST.
Once you find the couch you like, test it for comfort. Bounce up and down on the cushions. Make sure you like the feel. After all, you are the one that will be sitting on it.
3: DURABILITY.
Lift the frame and wiggle the arms. Does it feel heavy and sturdy? Do the arms hold firm indicating good workmanship?
4: FEEL.
How does it feel? Check out the fabric. Are the seams straight? Does the fabric line up properly? Most importantly, do you like the way it feels when you sit on it?
5: PRICE CHECK.
Good quality sofas are available in all price ranges. Price and compare.
6: MAKE SURE IT FITS.
Make sure it fits, but doesn't overwhelm. Additionally, you want to make sure it isn't dwarfed by your other pieces. - 15359
