Know these 4 tips and you won't be fooled when buying a genuine leather sofa.

Genuine leather sofas are high-end, elegant, and durable, making them very popular. So how can you buy a good genuine leather sofa? The quality of a genuine leather sofa needs to be considered comprehensively from four aspects: the texture of the leather, the sofa structure, the filling, and the details of the processing craftsmanship. DeLo's leather sofas will show you how to buy a satisfactory genuine leather sofa by focusing on these aspects.

First, consider the quality of the leather. The quality of the leather is crucial for a genuine leather sofa. Currently, the main types of leather used for sofas are cowhide and sheepskin, with cowhide being the most suitable. Cowhide is further divided into top-grain cowhide and split leather. Top-grain cowhide is the best sofa material, offering a stronger sense of texture, a more natural grain, and better breathability. Therefore, when choosing a genuine leather sofa, first check if it's made of top-grain cowhide. If a genuine leather sofa manufacturer uses top-grain cowhide, then the raw materials for the sofa are of very high quality.

Secondly, the sofa frame. A sturdy frame provides greater load-bearing capacity and a longer lifespan. When buying a sofa, choose one with a solid wood main frame if possible. If the entire frame uses S-shaped springs, it not only has strong load-bearing capacity and is less prone to deformation, making it more durable, but also has excellent flexibility, preventing the sofa from collapsing. Most sofas have zippers at the bottom; when buying a sofa, you can immediately open it to check the internal frame to see if it has the structure I described, and then check whether the wood used for the solid wood frame has been infested with insects or damaged. For living room leather sofas, the frame must be sturdy, as these sofas are frequently used, making their sturdiness crucial.

Third, the elasticity of the filling. This should be clear to everyone; the filling material is a crucial factor affecting the firmness and support of a sofa. Materials like foam, natural latex, down, and synthetic fabrics are currently the main sofa filling materials. Most sofas are composed of several types of fillings, while high-quality sofas mostly use high-density foam as the primary filling, supplemented by other fillings depending on the desired firmness.

Fourth, the details of the manufacturing process. For any home furniture product, if the details are not handled well and the manufacturing process is poor, even the best raw materials will be wasted, because details can determine success or failure. Whether buying a fabric sofa or a leather sofa, you need to be careful and pay close attention to the details, such as the uniformity of color in each part, the consistency of the stitching, the evenness and fineness of the stitching, the evenness of the armrests, the naturalness of the joints at the curves of the armrests, and whether the fabric and filling are tightly attached. Brands that pay attention to details generally offer sofas of good quality.

If you want to choose a good genuine leather sofa, you can't go wrong if you follow the steps I mentioned above. Of course, you also need to consider your own and your family's actual requirements when choosing a sofa. For example, if you have children, choose a sofa with rounded corners; if you want easy cleaning, buy a high-legged model to make it easier for a sweeper to get in and out; if you have elderly people, choose a sofa that is firmer. These all depend on the specific situation.
