A comfortable soft armchair is no less important than a comfortable sleeping place—it is meant to offer you coziness and relaxation, and at the same time, it should take care of your body. Today, designers offer many design options for this piece of furniture, and finding affordable soft armchairs is not a problem. The problem is choosing the exact armchair that will allow you to fully relax. How do you choose soft armchairs that combine beauty and comfort? That is what we will discuss. The most important thing is to decide why you need a soft armchair. If you need to buy a soft armchair for a study or office, it should have a high backrest. It is better to purchase an armchair that allows you to adjust the backrest—this is ergonomic, functional, and convenient. If your chair is intended for the living room, a lower seat and backrest are acceptable.
It is important that the chair seat is of normal width, ideally up to 50 cm. A narrow seat distributes body weight unevenly between the buttocks and thighs, while a chair with a wide seat has armrests that are too far apart, increasing the load on the forearms. The depth of the seat is also very important—you can get information about it from the consultant in our upholstered furniture store. It should be 2/3 or more of the length of the thigh; otherwise, blood circulation in the legs will be impeded. A lounge chair should not be too high or low—your feet should rest comfortably on the floor.
You should also pay attention to the materials from which modern soft armchairs are made. They are usually filled with polyurethane foam and polyester fiber—these materials provide elasticity and hold their shape well. Often, this padding is complemented by spring blocks for added comfort, which give the chair firmness and durability. If you have purchased a convertible armchair, pay attention to the transformation mechanism of the chair. The most reliable ones are considered to be roll-out chairs. If you choose a chair with a metal frame, the transformation mechanism will serve you long and without problems. If you like wooden furniture, opt for solid natural wood frames instead of fiberboard and particleboard, as it lasts long, perfumes the room, and improves sleep. To save space, you can choose a model with a storage box for bedding.
