About this corner & u-shaped sofas

novalush 147 Inch U-Shaped Corduroy Sofa with Double Chaise in Dark Grey

Corner sofas make the most of an awkward corner and the novalush 147 Inch U-Shaped Corduroy Sofa with Double Chaise is a good example: seating for the family on two sides, with a lounging end for film nights. It is upholstered in corduroy in dark 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.

It is compressed for delivery, so the cushions need time to expand fully after unpacking. Allow a day or two, and up to 72 hours for the deepest foam sections. Listed seat depth is 70cm and seat height 40cm, which means a deep seat that suits lounging, curling up and sitting cross-legged.

Practical extras listed include cup holders and hidden storage, so remotes, phones, drinks and blankets all have somewhere to go.

Day to day, a corner sofa lets everyone face the television, each other or both without competing for the one good seat, and the chaise end becomes the place everybody fights over on a film night. Dark grey is a flexible, calm colour that works with warm woods, cool whites and bolder accent cushions alike.

It is listed as 6 seater. It is ready to use without assembly. As a compressed item it arrives vacuum-packed, so unpack it somewhere you have room, let it expand, and give the cushions a pat to even them out. Measure the room and, just as importantly, the hallway, stairs and doorways it has to get through before you order.

Product photos are taken in controlled lighting, so expect the colour and texture to look a touch different in your own room at different times of day. It is a good fit for film nights and Christmas Day alike, because one piece of furniture seats several people without extra chairs.

Care guide

How to care for your dark grey corduroy corner sofa

A sofa is a big purchase, so a little regular care goes a long way. These steps are written for the corduroy on this sofa; always check the care label on the sofa itself first and test any cleaner on a hidden patch.

1. Vacuum with the ribsOnce a week, run a soft upholstery brush attachment along the length of the ribs rather than across them. This lifts dust and crumbs out of the grooves without flattening the pile.
2. Blot spills, never rubPress a clean, dry cloth onto a spill straight away to lift it. Rubbing drives liquid down into the ribs and can leave a shiny, flattened patch.
3. Revive a flattened pileWhere the ribs have been crushed by sitting, go over the area with a soft clothes brush, working in the direction of the pile, to stand it back up.
4. Keep both arms levelOn a corner sofa the two sides take different amounts of use. Occasionally swap which end you sit in and give the corner cushions a plump so wear stays even.
5. Let it recover after unpackingCompressed foam needs time to reach full shape. Leave the sofa in a well-aired room for the period given in the listing, pat the cushions, and give it a few days of normal use before judging how it sits.
6. Know when to call a professionalIf the sofa is badly stained or the label says professional cleaning only, an upholstery cleaner will know what is safe for the fabric. It costs far less than replacing the sofa, and always test any product on a hidden area first.
