Lecong Sofa Buying Guide: Size, Comfort, Upholstery and Structure
Choose sofas through room fit, sitting needs, internal structure, cushioning, upholstery batch, module connections, packing and verification.
A sofa should not be selected only by appearance and a brief sit test. Translate the room, access route and user needs into dimensions and comfort criteria, then check frame, support, cushioning, upholstery, removable parts, module connections and maintenance, and confirm how the display relates to the ordered version.
Scope of this guide
This guide provides an execution framework for furniture sourcing and product selection. Contract, inspection, freight, installation and destination-country requirements should be confirmed in writing by the relevant supplier or professional adviser.

What to define and retain
| Selection question | What to compare |
|---|---|
| Check room and handling dimensions | Record walls, access, doors, lifts, turns and overall width, depth, height and module sizes |
| Turn comfort into comparable criteria | Compare seat height and depth, back angle, arm height, firmness and ease of standing |
| Understand structure and cushioning | Ask for frame, support, cushion layers, recovery and removable scope, retaining samples or data |
| Confirm the upholstery version | Record material, colour, batch, nap or grain direction, joins, cleaning needs and allowed variation |
| Verify modules, packing and order relationship | Confirm connectors, orientation, legs, cushion count, packed dimensions and whether the display matches the order |
Recommended workflow

Frequently asked questions
Can a short sit test predict long-term comfort?
It gives an initial impression; also compare posture, use duration, cushion structure, recovery and intended users.
Will ordered upholstery look exactly like the showroom sample?
Confirm the actual code and batch. Batch, lighting and material direction can create visible differences.
