Learn these facts about genuine leather sofas and avoid wasting money.

Many people love buying genuine leather sofas. Genuine leather sofas look high-end and are among the more expensive styles of sofas. However, many people don't understand genuine leather sofas and often assume that expensive equals good, making them easily scammed and wasting money. Now, we'll share some common knowledge about genuine leather sofas to ensure you don't overspend.

1. Genuine leather sofas are not counterfeit.

First of all, a genuine leather sofa is almost certainly real; it's unlikely to be fake. Therefore, when buying a sofa, if the salesperson tells you it's genuine leather, it definitely is. They generally wouldn't try to cheat you with that. Genuine leather is genuine leather, and artificial leather is artificial leather. Genuine leather sofa manufacturers typically use cowhide, and cowhide and artificial leather have distinct differences.

2. Genuine leather sofas are not necessarily expensive.

I can keep this part very simple, with the aim of changing the preconceived notions some furniture novices have about leather sofas being expensive. Not necessarily! First of all, different materials result in different prices. Take the most affordable genuine leather, for example; a genuine leather sofa would cost around 2,000-3,000 yuan (wood filling is all from inexpensive sources). Therefore, don't assume that genuine leather sofas are always expensive, otherwise, it's easy for them to overcharge. You must ask about the type of leather, check the quality, and examine the materials to determine the approximate price of the sofa and whether it's expensive or cheap.

If top-grain cowhide is used in the production of genuine leather sofas, then the price will be very high. Also, different genuine leather sofa brands target different customer groups, so the prices will vary. For the same similar genuine leather sofa model, some brands are very expensive, while others are cheaper.

3. For genuine leather sofas, you need to check whether they are made entirely of genuine leather or partially genuine leather.

A sofa can be called a genuine leather sofa as long as it uses genuine leather material. Therefore, when buying a sofa, you should ask whether it is a full genuine leather sofa or just a sofa with genuine leather on the surface, because the prices of these two types will differ greatly, and you can easily fall into a trap if you are not careful.
