How to get the right sofa for your home

The type of sofa you choose to go for depends on the purpose of the seat. A love seat sofa can accommodate two people.

Sofas come in many shapes and sizes. The right one for you will depend on how much space you have, how many people you hope to accommodate, and what you basically want to use it for.
There are different types of sofas.
The standard sofa sits three to four people. Loveseat is intended for two people and the sectional sofa, which consists of two or more pieces arranged in an L- or U-shaped configuration. Sofa bed/daybed: A sofa bed transforms to lay out flat, offering a mattress-like surface to rest. A daybed is essentially a sofa with more depth intended for lounging comfortably stretched across its length.

Espiranto
This kind has three functions; it can be used for sitting (normally), arm rest in leather material, and body contact is of suede fabric.
Suede is a type of leather that is derived from any type of animal skin used in the production of normal leather, only this is done with the underside of animal skin, which is much softer than the outside.

It may not be as long lasting as normal leather but it if fluffy and gives a feeling of comfort and softness to the touch and also against skin.
The second function is that it can be used as a bed (one of the two-seater sofa) where you can retire when you are too tired to go to the bedroom, or have a guest, or watching a movie.
The sofa has sections beneath where one can store cushions, even baby toys. This prevents your sitting room from being overcrowded.

Recliner
This kind has two types; manual recliner and electric recliner. The manual reclining sofa has an option of either a catch or a handle release at the side of the chair.
