What is a single sofa?

A single sofa is about halfway between a sofa and a chair. It’s upholstered and offers all the comfort of a sofa, but in the compact size of a single seat. These kinds of 1 seater sofas allow a single person to sit down, and they’re well cushioned and can have a back on one side or two. It’s the perfect option for relaxing comfortably in a small space or enjoying a TV show, book or video game. Many also can be extended into a bed, making them an extra useful addition to your home.

Why buy a single sofa?

There are many great reasons to buy a single sofa instead of just an ordinary chair. These so-called sofa chairs are a superior choice due to their comfortable upholstery and extra features like pull-out beds. Yet at the same time, single sofas are smaller than typical sofas and therefore a better option when space is at a premium. They give you a cozy spot to read, watch movies or simply sit and relax, no matter the size of your living room.

Single sofas are better than chairs

Standard sofas are comfortable, cozy and relaxing. Plus, they look stylish and make your decor feel a bit fuller. But if space is an issue, or a single seat is all you need, a great compromise is a 1 seater sofa. It has all the comfy, stylish benefits of a sofa but without the unnecessary dimensions or extra space demands of more seats. If you want your living room to feel warm and inviting, a 1 seater sofa is a much more homey choice than a traditional chair.

Single sofas are cozy

Single sofas look and feel soft and elegant. They help you create a stylish arrangement with other chairs and tables in your living room, and they can add extra depth and intrigue to your room design. Also, because of its small size, a 1 seater sofa can fit into many kinds of rooms around your home, including living rooms, home offices or bedrooms. The cushy support they offer can help spice up a corner or an empty spot between two other furniture pieces. And a single sofa’s stylish design makes it an eye-catching addition wherever you put it.

Single sofas are ideal for small spaces

If your home is a bit smaller, or you’re trying to decorate a small room, a single sofa is a great choice for getting lots of comfort without the expense of space. It’s a compact piece of furniture that never feels bulky, and it’s easy to move too. Larger sofas can pose a problem when moving or redecorating, but 1-seater sofas are light and have simple dimensions that can more easily fit through doorways.

What colour 1 seater sofas can I buy?

1 seater sofas come in a variety of colours and designs. The most common has two backrests and an added pull-out bed. This kind of sofa chair comes in beige, black or red. You can also find outdoor single-seat sofas in grey and made from rattan. Browse above to find the right colour and design to suit your room and your style.

Where to put a sofa chair

Because of their smaller size, sofa chairs can work in many rooms throughout your home. The most classic spot is the living room, where they can add a little style and comfort to the decor. Your living room is where you relax and entertain friends, so it’s the perfect place for a comfortable, cozy seat where you can stretch out and enjoy yourself. But a sofa chair also works just as well in your bedroom, especially when used to fill an empty corner or a gap between other furniture. Another common location is a workspace, either in your home or at your office. Sofa chairs are classy and stylish, and they can add an air of sophistication but also comfort to the place where you work.
