Plenty wide enough for one personAnonymous reviewerVery happy with Jättebo, comfortable to sit on, perch on, lie on. Useful storage space for things like jigsaws or blankets underneath. Strong build quality, should last a long time. Covers are sturdy and resist cat/dog scratching well.5
Very uncomfortableAnonymous reviewerWe bought 3 of the large chairs and use them in an L or double and a single. We don't have the arms... and without the arms this is SO uncomfortable. No head support, no cozy corner to sink into. Its rigid and I am gutted we wasted our money buying something that really does not offer the comfort a sofa should. big lesson in try before you buy....2
Not functional without the (expensive!) arms.Anonymous reviewerCover fabric appears to be nice quality. Plywood frame seems very sturdy (impressive, but over-engineered, perhaps?)
Not much to do in terms of assembly, but it was a bit of a struggle to put the covers on, although worth the effort to get them nice and taught, as the sofa now looks as good as the photos on IKEA’s site.
The seat-opening mechanism works well, but is awkward if you have to move the components on their side after assembly (e. g., to fit through a doorway), as they will spring open and are difficult to close without the normal assistance of gravity. I had to use some strong webbing to tie them closed.
Because of the curvature at the edges of the seat top, the bolsters don’t serve as effective arms as we had imagined; they keep falling off the sides (Some sort of velcro option might help here).
We considered buying the arms to go on the ends, but they are wide, taking up too much space, and ridiculously expensive.3
Very comfortable and looks great!Anonymous reviewerIt has been a couple of weeks now since I have had my sofa and they are very comfortable. The sofa looks great and I have got a lot of complements from friends and family. I particularly love the storage, I would defiantly recommend this sofa as they are easy to clean too. Especially great for family with little kids. I couldn’t get the complete set at first as 1 seat sofa in beige was out of stock for a while . Thankfully it is now back in stock and have now completed my set.5
Fantastic sofaAnonymous reviewerWe bought our jattebo sofas back in January, and we're really enjoying them. They are so comfortable and look as good as the day we bought them.
The green colour in particular is fantastic.
Assembly is a bit difficult for the lower sections with the covers, but otherwise it's fantastic.
Plenty of storage space too.
The only shame is all the green covers for the 1 seater and the 1.5 seaters have been out of stock since we ordered them, so we can't complete our sofa. We've been checking the website everyday for updates but IKEA aren't able to tell us when they're back in stock even though they're in all the showrooms.5
So far so goodAnonymous reviewerHad this sofa a month now and so far its been really nice. Comfortable to sit on, easy to take apart and clean if needed. Specially with two young kids. Love that it can be moved into different positions and shapes to suit our needs. Really loving sofa. Hopefully it remains this way5
