About this 2 seater sofas
HOMCOM Velvet-Feel 2 Seater Loveseat in Grey
Short on space but not on comfort? The HOMCOM Velvet-Feel 2 Seater Loveseat gives two people a proper seat in a footprint that suits studios, spare rooms, nurseries-turned-offices and compact living rooms. It is upholstered in velvet in grey. Velvet has a dense, soft pile that catches the light and gives a room a more finished, upholstered look. It rewards a little regular care and feels noticeably plusher than a flat weave.
Foam padding does the work in the seat and back, keeping the cushions plump and supportive. A spring system sits beneath the padding, so the seat has some bounce instead of a flat, dead feel. Tapered wooden legs lift the body off the floor, which lets light and a vacuum cleaner underneath and gives the sofa a lighter look. Listed seat depth is 55cm and seat height 43cm, which means a balanced seat that works for both sitting up and relaxing back. Maximum load is listed at 240kg.
Two-seater sofas like this one are chosen for comfort first: the cushioning, the seat depth and the upholstery matter more than any single extra, and the specification table sets out the details for this model.
Day to day, a two-seater is the sofa you actually end up sitting on: it takes two people, or one person with a laptop and a blanket, and it leaves the rest of the room free for a coffee table, a desk or a play area. Grey is a flexible, calm colour that works with warm woods, cool whites and bolder accent cushions alike.
It is listed as 2 seater. Expect to do a little assembly; instructions and fixings are supplied. Tape its footprint on the floor, then measure the front door, hallway and any stairs so there are no surprises on delivery day.
Colours always look a little different on screen than in a living room, so judge the shade against the listed colour name and the photos together. It suits first homes, rented flats, spare rooms and home offices, and works well as a second sofa in a larger room.
