About this corner & u-shaped sofas
New Luxor Jumbo Cord Corner Sofa in Grey, Left Hand Facing
If the whole household wants to sit together, a corner sofa is the answer. The New Luxor Jumbo Cord Corner Sofa wraps the seating around the room instead of lining it up against one wall. It is upholstered in corduroy in grey. Corduroy has a ribbed pile that looks warm and textured, hides everyday marks better than a smooth weave and feels soft against bare arms. It is one of the most popular living-room upholstery choices in the UK right now.
Memory foam is listed in the seat, so it settles around you rather than pushing back, and returns to shape once you get up. The frame is described as solid wood, which is what holds a sofa square and stops it creaking or sagging as the years go by. With a listed seat depth of 50cm and a seat height of 40cm, you get a balanced seat that works for both sitting up and relaxing back. Maximum load is listed at 200kg.
This listing is the left-hand configuration, so check which side of the corner the chaise or longer section sits on before ordering. Practical extras listed include scatter cushions or pillows, so remotes, phones, drinks and blankets all have somewhere to go.
It uses wall space efficiently and tends to anchor an open-plan room, defining where the living area begins. Grey is the colour most UK living rooms are built around, which makes grey easy to pair with rugs, curtains and wall colours you already own.
It is listed as 4 seater. Expect to do a little assembly; instructions and fixings are supplied. Allow for the walk in as well as the final spot: doorways, stairs and tight hallway corners are where sofas get stuck.
The colour in the photographs is a guide: lighting and screens differ, so judge the shade from the colour name and the photos together. It suits family rooms and open-plan living spaces where the whole household wants to sit together, and homes with a corner that would otherwise be wasted.
