Great sectional sofaGabrielaI'm loving this sectional! It has a really elegant and clean look that's super aesthetic. The fabric felt a little rough initially, but it softened up nicely after the first wash. The cushions were initially firm, but they broke in perfectly after just a few days. I highly recommend this sofa.5
Very spaciousMiannaComfortable spacious sectional. Just the right fit for our living room! So many color options as well to fit any homes decor.5
Unbeatable valueEvaI exhaustively searched for a sofa with many specs: narrow corner entryway, cleanable, and tall enough legs to clean underneath. I couldn't stomach the cost of my dream leather sofa (~$12k) and didn't want to spend $7k on something I really didn't want.
I settled on the corner Hyltarp in Tallmyra Blue and couldn't be happier, especially with the sale price. It took 4 hours to assemble and clean up. It is very firm and has decent dimensions (many internet sofas are miniature). The fabric is soft and the blue color is slightly dustier in person, but beautiful. It catches dog hair, but you can't see it (black Newfoundland dog). I'm purchasing a spare slipcover so we can easily switch out when it gets soiled. The total is half the price of slightly higher quality competitors. I was able to fit waterproof mattress protectors under the slipcovers on the seats.
Is it the best quality? No, but it will last me until I can afford that fabulous high end sofa, and then can go to the man cave.5

Best couch! EmmaI’ve only had hand-me-down over the years so this was an important purchase for us after buying our first house. With two dogs, it was important to find a couch that could fit everyone and was easy to clean.
We have the blue slipcover and it’s not itchy. It’s coated so drinks don’t absorb and dirt can be wiped off. Covers come off and go back on with ease (that was always an issue with our old couch).
I’m thinking of getting a slipcover in a different color to switch it up. So many fun options.
We love the size! It comfortably fits 6 people sitting and my partner and I are both able to lay down each side. I couldn’t recommend it more for the price point. 5
Discoloration over timeHarperMy dad purchased this couch for our apartment about 5 years ago. We got it in white so we do not go anywhere near it with food/drinks that can stain.
All over the couch, tan spots have been appearing. We’ve washed the couch, baking soda. All of it. It’s a small apartment so we don’t usually host people, I don’t spray tan, I drink my coffee in the kitchen. He doesn’t drink coffee at all.
We’ve gone on reddit and apparently this happens often with Ikea fabric.
This is so annoying, my couch looks disgusting. 2
Poor quality construction, cushions and fabricAmandaWould return if it was not such a major inconvenience. Backs of corner section do not line up with sides and the fabric is scratchy textured and super thin. Description says extra soft, but the bottom cushions are extra hard foam. Not comfortable at all. Comes in 5 huge boxes and limited assembly instructions. 1
Sturdy and comfyRebeccaLove the color, seems well built. The corner cushion seat sits lower than the other two. Fabric isn’t pet friendly at all. My cats claws get stuck in it. And it’s a bit scratchy. 4
The bestLisaWe have the hyltarp sectional in the tallmyra blue color and it is THE BEST couch we've ever had. It's so comfy, my husband basically falls asleep on it every night, and is easy to clean if something spills. Highly recommend. 5
very happyMThe delivery service for Ikea was great. It arrived on time and it was easy to assemble. The cover is well made and went on easily. I looked everywhere for a couch like this one and found this last minute. To buy a new cover is a little expensive but the quality of frame, cushion etc seems well within cost vs value ratio. Happy customer.5
Beautiful couchSarahThis sectional is beautiful and looks so high end. Easy to put together. Firm, but comfy. I love that it's washable too! 5
