How to choose a sofa for daily sleep: what to look for

Good day everyone! I am overwhelmed with emotions today, as another big course on drawing on the iPad ended yesterday.
But I will definitely tell you about how it went in detail :) Today, let's talk about sofas again. Yes Yes. let's get back to such a sick and hackneyed topic - how to choose a dream sofa.

And again, I will not talk about technical characteristics, but only about design, design and more about it.
I have already written an article about styles and shapes… with beautiful illustrations by me… it was so informative.

What are we going to talk about today… You know what – about my (and many designers’) sadness and longing… And sadness is called “HOW TO FIND A DREAM SOFA” for the interior and at the same time… so that it is of high quality, beautiful, laid out (oh, yes -yes, but in our non-Hermitage apartments, a sofa bed is a must-have), it was comfortable and MOST IMPORTANTLY - it did not cost like a spaceship ...

Actually not so...
If the budget allows, then we do not think about where to get a sofa, we just select the shape, size, fabric we need ... and that's it. And I don't care where he comes from - from America or Belgium.

But if there is no budget ...
The crisis is out in the open. And there is no need to tell fairy tales that everything is fine - no ... not great ...

And thanks to the "rate" of our ruble ... we do not have great opportunities buy Belgium, France ... Or rather, not everyone can now have such an opportunity.

And here the other day among us professional designers there was an interesting conversation on the topic - is it possible to buy RUSSIAN PRODUCTION ... and if you buy, then what exactly ...

And note that we were talking exclusively about MASS, those industrial production, and not about small workshops that, to one degree or another, meet all our requirements both in terms of price and quality. Rather, I have a choice here. But when it comes to factories...

I thought… Last year I had a sad experience of purchasing a sofa “BOROVICHI-FURNITURE” for a country house. But at the same time, we have had a sofa from “March 8” in our apartment for a year now and I am very pleased with it in terms of quality, the design is so-so to be honest…

And in one remote project, I also recently needed to choose a sofa that would meet all of the above requirements ... a task ...

And now let's digress from the tasks, and talk about WHAT I CALL THE DREAM SOFA ...

When you open another magazine with AD or MEZANINE interiors, you involuntarily begin to admire the work of Russian decorators - how cool it is in Lately the level of professionals has advanced with us ...

You open American magazines and hover there over every page...
You open European magazines and mentally live your life in what kind of interior. trying it on yourself ... Everything is so beautiful individually ...

Now the Internet is filled with resources that, to one degree or another, provide comprehensive information about trends in design, about why a traditional interior is a good choice, about various styles, flowers, and so on and so on ...

And what kind of sofas are everywhere ... Beautiful sofas!

And now you can’t have an excuse that “how should I know” ... Since the Internet is everywhere ... well, almost everywhere I’m not talking about Kulemino now.

I know very well that many, many people buy design magazines and use Houzz and Pinterest skillfully ...

But why, why do they then buy THIS:

from the Internet

In which beautiful interior it is possible to meet such a MIRACLE? In no…

And what is the reason from my point of view of such a disaster?

IN THE MANUFACTURER!

It is in them and only in them ...

And also in the terrible taste of local buyers (directors of stores that bring such “works” to your small towns and villages).

You buy what they offer you ... since I understand perfectly well that having 20-30 thousand rubles on hand on a sofa is not particularly clear ...

It's good if you have an IKEA nearby.. but if not?

Here is my DREAM SOFA that fits almost any interior. From modern to classic. From everyone's favorite Scandinavia to a traditional American style home.

Simple classic shapes, with or without a case. Only plain and it is better if it is in natural linen-colored fabric upholstery ... small colored pillows and a woolen blanket casually lying on the armrest will be those bright fashionable accents, but no more.
It can be folding, or maybe not, and its cost depends on this ...

This is the sofa that you will find (in one form or another) in almost any decent interior from the cover of a magazine.

You won't see something like this:

from the Internet

And I urge you to just be more attentive to the sofa, its choice and purchase ... you see, the sofa belongs to the BASIC INTERIOR WARDROBE, if we compare it with the fashion and style industry.

It takes the role of a classic coat that almost every lady has… we don’t change sofas every year… It is purchased for a LONG TIME, so it should be in BASIC COLOR, with good quality mechanism and fabric…

It should not bother you in six months ... It should fit into any story of repainting walls, replacing textiles on windows ...
He must LIVE in the interior…
And the interior must breathe ...

And from such miracles - I suffocate, and I get tired in half an hour as I come to our stores ...

Therefore, I walked through our showrooms and made a selection of sofas that can be called worthy in design from our manufacturers, which are worth paying attention to with certain comments, which I will talk about.

So let's go:

I'll start with IKEA.

1. IKEA. Yes, not Russia ... but I put it in the first place, because I love it :))) Now Ikea has a BACCABRU model. She came to replace the famous Ectorp, which we loved so much for its versatility.
Ikea is that great choice for a budget sofa. There are complaints about the sleeping place, but this is not a bed ... It looks very worthy in the interior - we put a plus sign.

2. ANDERSSEN. Same price range… And by and large you can also buy. I am surprised by this quilted piece combined with these studded armrests.
Not friends with one another. Maybe in gray or unbleached linen it will look good.

3. LAGOON. I learned about this factory just yesterday. Honestly, I didn’t see it, I didn’t read it ... Vera, a reader of my blog told about this model and I went to look. Well, that's normal. you can live :)
The price is totally unrealistic. If the pillows are correctly selected, and the sofa itself is not made in velvet-gold, then a worthy option should be obtained.

4. MOON. This factory already occupies a worthy position in our market. They have their own design. And for the most part, I don't like it. But here is the model 053, which we will call classic. True, for me he is too plump :))) Reviews are contradictory. I didn’t put it on anyone myself, so I don’t have live reviews.

5. PINSKDREV FACTORY. I have been told about this Belarusian manufacturer more than once, both by colleagues and ordinary users. Reviews are good for the most part. The PROVENCE model is very similar to the IKEA EKTORP, so I really liked it. Plus, it folds out and the cost is not quite space, although not budget either. This sofa will look great both in white and in flowers.

6. SOFIA. Also a Belarusian manufacturer with a budget segment. The PROVENCE model looks quite decent in form. But the finish presented on the site is horror ... from my point of view. Choose this model in one color, and then sew the pillows yourself into new covers made of beautiful textiles.

7. BOROVICHI. About this factory and specifically this model, I wrote my own. But still, I advise him, since he has a convenient mechanism, it is comfortable to sleep on it. But the sofa itself needs some serious work. Replace large pillows with flowers with plain ones, put small ones in other covers. If possible, choose a plain fabric the highest category. I categorically do not like it in velvets, but it looks decent in matting.

8. PUSH. This beautiful model the manufacturer says new. good news! Really like:)))

I hope there is a decent choice of fabric for this model. Unfortunately, I can not say anything about the quality - if there is real reviews, write please.

An important component of the interior of any room is furniture. It makes the atmosphere in the house more comfortable, cozy, besides, it has useful functionality. If you have to arrange new apartment or at home, and also, if you decide to update individual pieces of furniture, then you will certainly have a question of choice. It is not at all necessary to chase famous imported brands - high-quality furniture Russian production, whose rating is given in this article, deserves your attention.

"Premium".

"Stopplit".
Glazkovskaya MF.

Let's consider the most venerable first three participants in more detail.

"Shatura-Furniture"

The Shatura-Mebel company, founded in 1961, is rightfully considered the best furniture factory in Russia. The range of Shatura products is simply huge, and each unit of production is in enviable demand among domestic consumers. Such trust in the factory is caused not only by competent advertising campaigns, but also by other, more important arguments.

Advantages of the products of the Shatura-Mebel factory:

reliability and strength of the structure;
long service life;
additional protection of the material from mechanical damage;
product functionality and practicality;

"Shatura" is included in the rating of the best furniture factories in Russia also due to the wide range of manufactured products. That is, in the assortment of the company, you can look at products for both home, office, and other highly specialized areas.

In the catalogs of the factory, you can look at upholstered furniture, kitchens, bedrooms, bathroom equipment and much more. Properly designed product design allows you to choose kits or modules for any interior space, be it an apartment, private house, restaurant, office or beauty salon.

Factory Features

Connoisseurs of something noble also have a place to turn around. Shatura is also included in the rating of the best furniture factories in Russia due to attractive sets of elite sets and other chic. Moreover, premium-class products do not just come with inflated prices, but really with the use of high-quality materials and some technological innovations that significantly improve the performance of furniture.

As for the reviews about Shatura, everything is very good here. There are no critical comments regarding the products from users. And if there are negative reviews, they mainly relate to some organizational issues (problems with delivery, assembly, torn packaging, etc.).

"TriYa"

The TriYA company was recognized as the best furniture factory in Russia last year (2016 rating). One of the distinguishing features of the company, in addition to the production of products for various purposes, is the use of environmentally friendly and high-quality wood-shaving materials.

Advantages of TriYa factory products:

high quality;
functionality;
attractive appearance;
a huge selection of modules and other components for retrofitting;
time-tested fittings from Europe;
democratic prices.

The company also occupies a leading position in the rankings of the best kitchen furniture factories in Russia. A huge range of sets, made in a wide variety of styles for large and small kitchens, will allow you to choose exactly what you need.

Distinctive features of the company

In the catalogs of the factory you can find bedrooms, furniture for the nursery, living room, hallway, wardrobes, corners, tables, chairs and much, much more. TriYA is also included in the rating of the best furniture factories in Russia because almost all of the company's products have a universal component, that is, the consumer does not have to buy a whole set at once.

A well-designed modular system allows you to separately purchase some elements that are completely suitable for existing ones. The pricing policy of the factory is quite democratic, so the assortment has a place to turn around for both state employees and premium customers.

Customer opinion

Consumers speak very warmly about the products of the TriYA holding. A lot of positive feedback is left by buyers from the mid-price segment. Many appreciated the versatility of furniture due to modular system and quite reasonable prices. There were no critical comments from users, and all the anger of consumers is directed mainly to problems with delivery, assembly and other organization, which to a small extent depends on the factory itself.

"Lapis lazuli"

The third place in the ranking of the best furniture factories in Russia went to the no less famous Lazurit. The main production facilities of the company are located in the Kaliningrad region. Since 1996, the factory has been pleasing its admirers with high-quality cabinet and upholstered furniture. The company's dealer network covers almost all of Russia, presenting products in many regions.

Advantages of the products of the Lazurit factory:

high-quality lamination of chipboard class E1;
reliable and beautiful facades from MDF;
natural and synthetic fabrics for furniture upholstery to choose from;
the use of technologically advanced polyurethane foam;
sensible spring systems;
wicker furniture is made from good rattan and natural wood.

All materials used in production meet sanitary requirements, that is, certified and safe for the health of consumers.

Company Features

In the catalogs of the factory, you can choose any set or upholstered furniture you like. If the existing assortment is not enough, then at any dealer point you can issue individual order according to the developed project. Therefore, with the help of "Lazurit" you can realize the most daring design decisions.

Feedback on the furniture factory is mostly positive. Consumers did not notice any serious problems, and many were especially pleased with the quality of service at dealer points of sale. Judging by the reviews, there you will not see the problems inherent in many companies with delivery, assembly or confusion in fittings and other troubles. The administration carefully monitors the staff on the ground, so the staff works quickly, accurately and without critical errors.

Summarizing

All of the above factories care about their reputation and try to please the client in everything. And it turns out they are mostly quite successful. Developed business, as well as the available finances, make it possible to hire smart specialists, and in some cases, conduct special training right at the trading places.

The spotless name of the company is extremely important for each factory, so the main emphasis is on product quality. Very often, releasing the next budget kit, the manufacturer sells it at cost or generally exposes it at a loss for himself, but places special emphasis on quality. It is possible to interest a client with a low price, but he will never return to a shelf with a brand whose furniture crumbled after a few months of use. Therefore, serious furniture factories can afford squandering in the budget segment, but with the opportunity to make good profits in the middle or premium class, coupled with an excellent reputation.

Any company from our list can be safely chosen for interior design of apartments, private houses, offices and even industrial premises. In fact, there is no rating as such, because the quality of the products at the output of all the above companies is almost the same - the technologies are the same. It's all about taste and personal preferences: someone likes square, and someone likes round. The same is true with furniture.

In the living room, the sofa can be safely called the main piece of furniture. Most of the day passes on it: we relax and work or just go about our business, watch TV shows and read books. In addition to the living room, the sofa will find its place in almost any type of room. A consumer from Russia and the CIS countries, usually, when purchasing a sofa, determines the service life of 5-10 years. The assertion that foreign manufacturers of upholstered furniture greatly excel in quality over Russian firms is already a delusion today. An analysis of this market showed that it is precisely in terms of price-quality ratio that Russian manufacturers overtake overseas competitors. This is indicated, at least, by the absence of the need for long, long-distance transportation of the product to the country of destination of sales.

So, Russian firms can afford not to save on the quality of materials: upholstery fabric, frame, filling, other small details. At the same time, in a large assortment you can find a sofa in a price category that matches your budget. Of course, the quality is more expensive models will allow you to use the sofa not only in the daytime watching TV, but also for a daily healthy, eight-hour sleep. To use the sofa as bed, it is important that the mattress base has an appropriate block of springs - independent. The cost of such sofas starts from 15,000 rubles. More budget option sofas with Bonnel springs are considered, however, such a mattress cannot boast of orthopedic properties.

Top 10 kitchen manufacturers

1. IKEA (Sweden)

The kitchens of this Swedish manufacturer are popular all over the world and there are at least 7 reasons for this:

Simple yet stylish front design in the traditional, and in modern style .

IKEA kitchen complete with marble countertops and decorative handles

Ikea equips kitchen furniture with high-quality Blum fittings;
Ikea only uses eco-friendly species Chipboard and MDF;
The warranty period for kitchens from Ikea is 25 years;
The ability to independently and free of charge to design a kitchen in online planner on the store's website, and then correct it together with a specialist;
Possibility of local replacement of facades in case of damage, or simply if you want to update the design, say, in a few years.

Consider the cons:

Despite the long warranty period, the actual service life of Ikea kitchens is often not long and is only 7-10 years. Some users in their reviews report that chipboard swells after 3 years;
The choice of facades, firstly, is limited in colors and design, and secondly, it is minimalistic, which is not to everyone's liking. In addition, the interior of the kitchen with a set from Ikea can hardly claim to be unique;

The dimensions of the Ikea headset modules are standard, so it is not always possible to ideally fit the headset to the room and squeeze the maximum out of it.

2. Maria (Russia, Saratov)

The rating of kitchen manufacturers is unthinkable without the most recognizable brand in the country, Maria, which has been specializing in kitchen production for 19 years. The company positions its furniture as furniture with German quality and Italian design.

10 year warranty;
Unlike Ikea, the Maria company relies on an individual approach in designing a headset, which is especially necessary for small kitchens ;
The buyer can monitor the status of his order on the site;
The manufacturer buys materials and components in Italy, Germany and Russia. The company fundamentally does not cooperate with China;
The choice of headset models is quite large. Moreover, both classical and modern kitchens"Maria" are equally good and are often used in TV show projects " Housing problem”,“ School of Repair ”, etc. By the way, the furniture design was developed jointly with Italian designers;

The presence of a large number of points of sale in Russia, where prices vary slightly.

Prices for kitchens in "Maria" are medium and medium-high.

3. Stylish Kitchens (Russia)

This factory is unique in that it produces all (!) furniture components on its own on equipment that was developed by leading European machine tool companies. Thus, every single detail is not stored in warehouses, but is made specifically for the customer.

All salons of the factory are branded, which eliminates dealer margins, reduces the likelihood of errors and delays, and also simplifies the resolution of any contentious issues;
The factory provides free services not only for measuring and designing, but also for delivery and assembly, which is a very significant bonus;
Prices for "Stylish Kitchens" are lower than for furniture from the "Maria" factory.

Salons "Stylish kitchens" are only in Moscow, the Moscow region and St. Petersburg.

4. Leroy Merlin (Poland)

The main advantages of kitchens from Leroy Merlin are availability and the ability to get sets as quickly as possible - literally in 2-3 days, and not the standard 2-3 months.

The prices for Leroy Merlin kitchens are perhaps the lowest in our rating;
The facades of the suites are of quite good quality, there are even inexpensive facades with oak veneer in the assortment;
Kitchens under the trade mark "Delinia" are guaranteed for 25 years;
The order can be picked up almost on the day of payment;

ZOV is a brand of kitchen furniture from Belarus, popular in Russia and the CIS and recognizable in our country thanks to cooperation with the program “Housing Problem” and “School of Repair”. The company has been on the market for over 20 years.

The range includes both economy and premium kitchens;
The warranty period is 5 years;

Furniture assembly is quite expensive and, depending on the dealer, the price of the service can be from 7 to 15% of the order value;
Prices at dealers and representative offices for the same equipment can vary significantly.

6. Plaza Real (Russia, St. Petersburg)

And here is a video review of the kitchen from Plaza Real.

7. Aran Cucine (Italy)

Italian cuisines are valued all over the world for their quality and design. In Russia, kitchens from Italy are most often positioned as premium-class furniture (sometimes unjustified, since the high price is often formed only due to shipping costs and dealer margins), but the Aran brand is an exception. The average cost of one headset is from 2700 Euros, which is comparable to the prices of the domestic "Maria" or " Stylish kitchens". The Aran Cucine brand was founded in 1960.

The Aran factory, unlike other European companies, delivers its kitchens unassembled, which greatly reduces the cost of delivery from Italy. Against the backdrop of the growth of the euro, this factor becomes especially relevant for Russians;
European quality;
Beautiful design of kitchens, not only classic, but also modern;

The delivery of the headset frame in disassembled form is, on the one hand, a plus (the client saves on delivery), and on the other hand, a minus: glued prefabricated frames are better and more durable;
When buying a kitchen from Italy, you will have to put up with an extended delivery time, an overpayment due to the growth of the euro, as well as dealer markups and duties.

8. Häcker Kuchen (Germany)

German manufacturers are famous for using the most advanced technologies in the production of kitchen sets. Hacker is the second largest kitchen brand in Germany. The secret of Haecker's success: the factory adapts the technological and design solutions of elite German manufacturers to the mass market. The slogan of this brand is "Kitchens for everyone".

The prices for Hacker kitchens are comparable to the prices of domestic factories of the middle and medium-high segment.

Expensive and long delivery;
Dealer rates.

9. Kitchen yard (Russia, Moscow)

Kitchen Yard has been on the market since 1996. Kitchens from the Kitchen Yard factory are often used by designers in the School of Repair and Housing Problem programs.

Large selection of colors and styles of facades;
Furniture design was developed jointly with designers from Italy;
Free assembly when ordering a kitchen set and appliances from 150 tr.;
Moderate prices - from 23 thousand rubles per linear meter.

The free warranty covers 2 years - this period is less than that of other Russian factories. 5 year warranty.

10. Announcement (Russia)

The factory was founded in 1999. Kitchens "Announcement" can often be seen in the program "Repair School".

Another photo example of the Announcement kitchen in the interior.

Salons "Announcement" are presented in 30 cities of Russia;
Free delivery in Moscow within the A-107 highway and when ordering from 70 tr.;
Large selection of designs.

Short warranty period - 2 years;
Not very high quality and informative site.

Which kitchens are better - Russian or European production? The furniture of domestic manufacturers is good in that it is adapted to small rooms and is focused on the implementation individual projects. In addition, it is more affordable (especially against the background of the growth of the dollar and the euro) and at the same time comparable in quality to the furniture of European factories. Moreover, most of the major manufacturers work on Italian / German equipment, use their own technologies, materials and accessories, imitate the "Europeans" in design.
When choosing a kitchen, ask about the manufacturer of accessories and the warranty period for it. good loops designed for at least 80-100 thousand opening-closing cycles.
Do you feel that the designer-designer is not competent and attentive enough? In this case, it is worth changing either the designer or the manufacturer, since the kitchen design stage is almost the most important and the likelihood of errors should be minimized.
Buying a kitchen is, if possible, in a branded, not a dealer / franchise salon, or at least from an official sales representative.
When choosing a kitchen manufacturer, do not hesitate to ask if the assemblers are full-time employees of the company who have undergone uniform training and certification.
To minimize the likelihood of errors in the design project, it is advisable to be well versed: learn the principles of kitchen planning and figure out layout options on your own, for example, in our free online constructor .
