If you are seeking to update your living room aesthetic this
season one of the most sought after pieces on the market is the modular
sofa, a unique contemporary furniture piece which is constructed by
slotting together individual sections to assemble a sofa suite. These
innovative new products quickly becoming extraordinarily popular in
interior design circles but as they aren't built in the conventional
manner, there is every reason to ask whether they are actually safe to
use for your living room or lounge. So if you find yourself questioning
the safety of a piece which is already broken into separate pieces, here
is a quick guide to allay your fears on the subject.
When looking
at a modular sofa in a showroom perhaps one of the first things you
will notice is that they tend to be wider and deeper than a conventional
sofa but offer far less in terms of a back support than you would
otherwise expect. This is perhaps one of the main concerns for a number
of shoppers in the sense that without a solid back support it's actually
surprisingly easy to fall off a modular suite in comparison to a
conventional design, causing injury to the user. However, provided that
you are not seeking to lean back on a chaise section, where the back
rest is entirely removed, you should feel secure that you won't incur
any such injury as each sofa is designed to support the user and will
undergo numerous safety tests during production to check for build
quality.
