Three Seater Sofa Guide

Three Seater Sofa Guide

Purchasing a sofa is a big investment, therefore it is important to choose the right one. In this blog, we explore the most asked questions when purchasing a three seater sofa to help you make the right choice. If you have any questions, please feel free to get in touch.

What is the average size of a three seater sofa?

The average size of a three seater sofa is around 110cm wide by 220cm long (around 4 feet by 8 feet). The size of a three seater will depend on the manufacturer of the sofa.

At Habbio, our three seater sofas slightly differ in measurements:

  • HB01: 91cm wide and 197cm long.
  • HB02: 91cm wide and 203cm long.
  • HB03: 91cm wide and 195cm long.
  • HB04: 90cm wide and 196cm long. 
  • HB07: 90cm wide and 212cm long.

Creating the right centre piece: how do I choose the right size for my living room?

Ideally, your sofa shouldn’t take up all the space in your living room, however, it is personal preference. Typically, people follow the 2:3 rule, which is where people divide a room into three and the sofa should take up 2:3’s of it. Ideally there should be around 2 – 3 feet around the sofa for ease of movement.

How many people can sit on a three seater sofa?

Our three seater sofa’s comfortably seat up to three bums, plus a furry friend. It is perfect for a busy household but also offers room for ultimate lounging for a quieter home

How heavy is a three seater sofa?

A three seater sofa usually weighs between 40 – 80 kg depending on the type of materials used and the actual size of the sofa.

At Habbio, our 3 seater sofas are delivered in three boxes and are easily assembled and disassembled. This means the boxes can be easily moved before assembly but the sofa can be taken apart and moved easily whenever needed.

2 seater sofa vs 3 seater sofa

There are a few things to consider when choosing between a 2 seater and a 3 seater sofa, for example:

  • Are there more than two people in your household?
  • Do you often host guests?
  • Do you like to stretch out and lounge on your sofa?
  • Is your living room or space big enough for a three seater sofa?

If your answers to the above questions are yes, then a three seater may be the perfect size for you. Purchasing a modular sofa will allow you to add sections or take them away at any time – therefore your sofa can grow with you and your needs.

Will a 3 seater sofa fit through a door?

Whether or not a 3 seater sofa will fit through a door will depend on the size of the sofa and the size of your doors. Usually, the answer would be yes, but we recommend measuring both to ensure it does fit.

Is assembly required when purchasing a 3-seater sofa?

Some three seaters sofa will require some assembling, however some will come ready assembled – it will completely depend on the sofa and brand you choose.

At Habbio, our three seater sofas come in three boxes and will require some assembling. Read our blog to find out how easy it is to assemble one of our sofas, or alternatively we can assemble the sofa for you during delivery.

How many cushions should you have on a 3 seater sofa?

The number of cushions will be up to you and your personal preference. We recommend around 3 to 6 scatter cushions for a three seater sofa.

Three Seater Sofas From Habbio: Easy to Assemble, Disassemble and Move

At Habbio, we have a range of different three seater sofas to choose from, in a range of colours to suit everyone’s personal taste.

At Habbio, we believe our sofas should be comfy and convenient, we never want you to struggle to transport your sofa, so we designed our sofas to come apart and fit into boxes. All our flat pack sofas can be disassembled, carried by two people and reassembled again in a new space, meaning you’ll never be forced to leave a Habbio behind when you decide to move. Our sofas squeeze through the narrowest of corridors and up the steepest of stairs, designed for minimum hassle and maximum comfort.

A lot of our sofas are modular which means you can add extra units should you ever want to increase the size of your sofa. We wanted to design a sofa that grows with you and lasts for years to come, no matter your change in circumstances.

We also have two seaters, corner sofas, chaise sofas and sofa beds to choose from.

Find out what our customers think about our sofas

“I could not be happier” I ordered a double sofa bed sight-unseen from Canada (for delivery in Bradford, UK). I was a little nervous about doing so, but the reps at the company put me at ease with several pleasant conversations. They also accommodated my request for a later delivery time; the delivery man was super friendly, and he was in and out (after setting it up and taking the time to explain if thoroughly) in 20 minutes—taking all the packaging with him. I could not be more pleased with the quality, the customer service, and the peace of mind. So far, we are loving our choice—no regrets!

Great personal service Habbio have been very personal, friendly and responsive in their service. The organisation of delivery was easy, and on the day Sharon kept me informed of timings, which helped a lot. Daniel, who delivered the sofas, was very helpful and assembled them for us straight away. They are definitely quick to assemble! Gorgeous to look at too, the midnight blue colour even better in real life.
