Couches Sale - How to Find the Best Deals on Couches and Sofas

Sofas and couches are long and upholstered pieces of furniture which can be used to sit or lounge. Colloquially both terms are often used interchangeably. Designers prefer to differentiate between the two.

A sale is the transfer of ownership of property to another party in exchange for money or other thing of value. Every day, millions of sales transactions are made to improve the financial health of the consumer and business.

  1. Affordability

The purchase of a couch is expensive, but furniture stores frequently offer discounts and specials. NerdWallet recommends shopping for couches during these times to get the most value and avoid spending too much.

Another way to save money is to look for a used sofa. While you won't have the ability to customize this type of sofa, it's more affordable than purchasing a new one. You can find deals at local market and yard sales, as well as on the marketplaces online for major furniture stores.

Take into consideration the frame when looking for a couch. The cheaper options are made of mesh or webbing, while better couches are made of a kiln-dried wooden frame, like oak or beech. The springs on couches also come in different quality levels. Cheaper ones don't have any springs whatsoever, whereas the more expensive ones may include serpentine springs or eight-way hand-tied springs.

A sofa can be equipped with extra features, such as LED lights, power recliners and a bed built-in for the ultimate in comfort. Include a low-rise table or a coffee table to your living room as an additional storage option as well as a decorative element. Find out all the options and visit showrooms in order to try out the furniture.

  1. Sustainability for the environment

While fast fashion has long been in the lexicon of sustainability experts as something to avoid, it's important to think about the environmental impact of large furniture items like couches that will ultimately be put to waste. A couch that's made from sustainable materials and made by a local company will likely leave a smaller carbon footprint than a couch imported from overseas.

The process of making a sofa is also important to consider when determining its eco-friendliness. Does the company make use of renewable energy sources in its production? Does it use recycled materials to reduce waste? What is the way that the manufacturing facilities it operates run in terms of protecting natural resources and minimizing pollution?

To decrease the amount of furniture that ends up in landfills, try looking for a sustainable sofa for sale from an antique or secondhand seller. Many of these sellers offer professional cleaning and repairs to extend the lifespan of furniture and prevent it from ending up in the garbage. You can also check out the offerings at Kaiyo, an online marketplace that buys and sells used furniture to keep it from being discarded.

If you're looking to buy a couch that is more sustainable, pick one made of organic fabrics or wood that's been sustainably obtained. VivaTerra, for example, makes couches in the USA made from wood that is sourced ethically and organic hemp or cotton certified by the GOTS. Their foam is Cradle To Cradle certified and they use no flame retardants or formaldehyde in their cushions. They also ship sofas in 100 recycled corrugated boxes and offset their carbon emissions for the entire year.

There are companies such as Maiden Home that make their couches to order in North Carolina, reducing waste. They make use of repurposed and recycled materials, such as upcycled velvet and polyester, both of which have the OEKO-TEX and GRS certifications.
