Leather upholstered furniture has always served as a measure of luxury. Indeed, one can hardly call such expensive sofas budget. At the same time, they tried to squeeze them out of faux leather for a long time and win the favor of customers. The first attempts were frankly deplorable. Too artificial material was inferior to natural. But progress cannot be stopped, and today's samples of synthetic eco-leather almost imitate the original one to one.
Now faux leather sofas adorn not only the reception rooms of offices, cafes and restaurants. Stylish models for the house are produced: corners, sofa beds, sets for living rooms. In the catalogs you can find solid classics, fashionable functional high-tech or very expensive original designer designs.
What guides buyers who opt for such models? Most are attractive for the price. Although it is necessary to note here that not all faux leather sofas belong to the economy class. The price jumps from a perfectly acceptable 15 thousand rubles to an amount over 100 thousand. What is the reason? The thing is again in the material. Some types of artificial leather (for example, Alcantara) are valued even higher than the skin of the first category. Plus - execution, accessories, design. It turns out very “biting” sets of upholstered furniture.
The second reason that faux leather sofas enjoy well-deserved attention lies in their high performance. They have amazing wear resistance. Thanks to her, in offices most often you will find furniture made of synthetic materials. Simply, no other is able to withstand such stressful conditions of service. No one took the trouble to calculate how many visitors sits per day on a sofa in the waiting area.
Artificial material is not afraid of moisture; it does not so quickly burn out and wear out. Particularly durable models are not afraid of even small mechanical damage: cuts, scratches.
At the same time, caring for such models is not tedious. The dust is removed with a vacuum cleaner, but it is better to wash off the dirt with a soap solution. Chemistry spoils the surface. The only condition that must be strictly observed is that you need to wipe the artificial coating dry after washing each time.
You will not regret the purchase if you select the right sofa from faux leather. Reviews confirm the reliability and durability of the synthetic material. If you do not choose models covered with a low-quality “oilcloth”, then you will not encounter either a repulsive odor or a crumbling top layer. Modern substitutes are very elastic, soft, pleasant to the touch. And the eco-leather already mentioned above even has special through pores that provide unhindered air exchange.
Faux leather sofas come in a wide variety of colors. The choice is unlimited: solid black, restrained brown, warm chocolate, bright blue, sensual red. A chic and practical soft corner will become a bright center of your home or office.
