Long lasting and comfortableHeikeWe bought this in 2021 (gray/black) and it still looks brandnew despite heavy use. We do use blankets to sit on it, though, because of the dogs and because it's cozier. It's also great to sleep on for guests because of the support of the coils. When the back cusions are removed it's almost a twin size. Best couch we ever bought. Stylish too.5
Looks good and is very comfortable. DavidIt's very firm and I love the space under neath coz it allows easy cleaning. 5
Nice when you first get itWilliamHad it for a few months and ended up returning it. DO NOT get the velvet variants. I had the red one and you will get the most random stains on it from nothing. Water will stain it. Also the base cushions start to get lumpy rather quickly. Glad I was able to jump ship. 2
Low quality Anonymous reviewerFirst we couldn’t get one of the sofa arms attached the mounting holes were totally mis-aligned due to manufacturing defect. Then, you sit on the chaise lounge part and it deforms and the fabric looks all stretched after a single use. The sofa is firm and uncomfortable. We ended up returning it.1
Overall pretty good sofaEkaterinaIt’s been a year since we bought this sofa and we were able to see its pros and cons in full.
First of all I would say that for us seems that quality is good enough for the price suggested, it’s cozy and comfy (we purchased few pillows for comfortable seating) and we loved the size of it, three people can fit on it easily! One of our guests even slept on it (we covered it with mattress topper) and it was fine.
But of course there are some drawbacks:
- the biggest problem is the fabric, it stretches and can become dirty and shabby very quick I think
- and the second thing is that chase started loosing its firmness
Anyways as I said in the beginning good value for the money.5
Very happyKevinMy old Ikea Kivik couch had lost all its support and resilience. The cushions like marshmallows. My back increasingly unhappy. So it was time to consider an upgrade. When I first sat on the Applaryd at the store. I was struck by how firm it was. Yet.... it was still quite comfortable. Now, a few weeks down the road, I'm very happy with that decision. My back feels far more supported, and I can relax more easily. Not a cheap item, but IMHO worth the investment.5
LOVE IT!!!!!!BrendaLOVE IT!!!!!!5
Looks sleekWillThe streamlined style fits well in a smaller space. Generally comfortable--review measurements of seat height and depth for personal preferences.4
Deteriorating after 4 monthsAndrewWe purchased this sofa and chaise in blue and within the first 4 months there has been pilling and separation of the fabric on the sofa cushions (seats). The couch is comfortable and spacious but considering the quality and cost of the piece, I would steer clear of this product.1
Fantastic value, stylish, and comfy!KendraVery easy to put together, the fabric seems durable, and the cushions are the perfect firmness. If needed, the chaise can be switched to the other side, so that's great if you move and need it switched. A few throw pillows add more comfort as the back of the couch is as another reviewer wrote - at a 90 degree angle from the floor, but I find it comfortable as is. It's a tremendous value for what it is. It replaced a one year old custom curved and very pricey couch that was falling apart, and I wish this would have been available back then when I bought that one.5
Probably the best ikea couch / sectional and definitely the best sofa on the internet under $2000 by a wide marginTaireAesthetically pleasing design, comfortable feel, amazing fabric, easy to install. I crossed shopped this sectional vs styles from mid range American and danish brands and this came out on top, sacrificing a bit of originality ( from a design perspective ) for overwhelming value. It is pleasant to look at, very comfortable to sit on, and quite solid to boot. It's the most used couch in our house and our 2 year old toddlers love it ( they spent a lot of time jumping up and down on it and it shows zero signs of wear although we've only owned it for 3-4 months ).5
ImpracticalAizadaI think the makers never tried sitting on the sofa themselves. We used to have a cheap couch from IKEA, and it was much more comfortable!
The worst thing is the back pillow. The couch has a straight and rigid back, made at an angle of 90 degrees, as well as a short seat, which does not allow you to settle down with your legs and relax at all. The bulge of the back falls on the area above the waist. Our entire family is disappointed with this purchase. I would really love to return it but it would cost me another 500$ to pay movers.1
