What type of velvet sofa should I buy?
Â
While you may already be convinced that a velvet sofa is the perfect fit for you and your living room, knowing exactly which velvet sofa works best can be a little trickier.
Let’s start with the size of your velvet sofa. Do you want a small velvet sofa to complement your current living room set-up, or would you prefer a large velvet sofa that will become the centrepiece of your interior scheme? You can find everything from 2 seater velvet sofas to huge 4 seater sofas in our collection, with enough room to fit the whole family.
You should also think about which type of velvet sofa works best from a practical perspective. You may need a corner velvet sofa to fit the dimensions of your living room, or you might need a velvet sofa bed to keep overnight guests cosy and comfortable.
From velvet Chesterfield sofas to crushed velvet sofas, our collection has got you covered.
Â
Is a velvet sofa hard to maintain?
Â
Velvet sofas (and crushed velvet sofas, in particular) might have a reputation for being a high-maintenance choice, but this material is a lot more durable than people may think.Â
To maintain your velvet sofa, be sure to use a Sofology care kit, which contains all the cleaning products you need to keep your sofa looking great. Be sure to use a clean cloth and warm water on your velvet sofa, following the instructions included in the care kit. Act quickly if a spill happens or you find a stain, blotting first then cleaning the sofa with circular motions. Let the sofa air dry and it should be as good as new. Simple!

How long does a velvet sofa last?
Â
With the right care and maintenance, a velvet sofa can stand the test of time – even in the happy chaos of family life.
In fact, velvet is quite a hardy fabric, which means your velvet sofa can last for decades. All you need to do is give it a quick vacuum once a week and tackle spills as soon as possible.Â
So, whether you’re eyeing up a velvet Chesterfield sofa or want to add a crushed velvet sofa to your set-up, you can rest assured that your velvet sofa will last for years and years to come.
