Important features of armchairs

1. Comfort

An armchair should be comfortable and offer optimal seating comfort. This is determined by the upholstery, the seat height and the ergonomics of the chair.

2. Materials

The choice of materials influences both the appearance and the durability of the armchair. Commonly used materials are:

  • Wood: For a classic and warm look.
  • Metal: For modern and industrial designs.
  • Fabric: For comfort and versatility in colors and patterns.
  • Leather: For luxury and durability.

3. Design and style

Armchairs are available in a variety of designs and styles, from classic to modern. Choose a design that suits your interior and personal taste.

4. Colors and patterns

The color and pattern of an armchair can significantly affect the atmosphere of a room. Neutral colors add elegance, while bold patterns and colors add accents.

Tips for choosing the right armchair

1. Determine the intended use

Consider where the armchair will be placed and how it will be used. A lounge armchair for the living room has different requirements than a decorative armchair for the entrance area.

2. Test comfort

Before you buy, sit on the armchair and test its comfort. Pay attention to the padding and the support for your back and arms.

3. Materials and care

Choose materials that suit your lifestyle. Leather is easy to care for and durable, while fabrics need to be cleaned regularly.

4. Consider colors and patterns

Choose colors and patterns that match your decor. Neutral tones are versatile, while bold colors and patterns can add accents.

5. Set a budget

Armchairs can vary greatly in price. Set a budget and look for chairs that are within your price range.

Care of armchairs

Clean the chair regularly to remove dust and dirt. Use special cleaning products for leather and care products suitable for fabrics.

2. Protection from sunlight

Protect the chair from direct sunlight to avoid discoloration and material damage.

3. Treat stains immediately

Treat stains immediately to avoid permanent damage. Use appropriate stain removers for fabric chairs and special leather care products for leather chairs.

4. Maintain upholstery

Be careful not to overload the upholstery and protect it from excessive wear. If the covers are removable, washing them will make maintenance easier.

5. Maintain mechanical parts

If the chair has adjustable features, check mechanical parts regularly. Lubricate moving parts when necessary and tighten loose screws.
