Selecting Upholstery for Couches-Tips from Authentic Upholstery

Bargo, Nsw, January 30, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Authentic Upholstery offers durable but reasonable fabric for sofas and couches. A wide variety of domestic and commercial upholstery in Sydney is provided by them. Chenille fabric, faux suede, velvets, drill fabrics and a lot more variety is offered by Authentic Upholstery.

According to Colin and his team, Chenille fabric is durable and soft whereas leather is quite long lasting. Faux suede and velvets look lovely and have a great textural quality but looks worn when placed in a high traffic area. Drill fabrics get easily stained but are hard wearing. Leather couches are also very popular and durable pieces offering longevity, cleanability and superior comfort.

So, it is actually the sofa’s covering that is most important. In fact, this is what is seen and it is this part that receives the most wear and tear. To keep a sofa look good, it is thus important to have a high quality covering.

Colin says, “Dirt and stains are essential considerations for pet owners and parents because both pets and children are well known couch destroyers. Dark color fabrics and patterned fabrics can hide stains better than light colored and plain fabrics. The industrial-strength commercial grade upholstery fabric can withstand wear and tear of the high traffic areas. Some of the commercial fabrics can also deter bacteria.”

Colin added, “A slipcover can be used to keep the couch look new for long. These slipcovers can be taken off to wash when they become dirty.”

 ‘You get what you pay for’-this is a very popular saying and it’s truer in case of a lifespan of a couch. A cheap couch never holds up to the durability like a top-end couch. In most of the cases, the fabric of the cheap couches look worn, the pop springs and sometimes the couch even breaks after constant and regular use over the year. A good quality couch retains its good look for a long time and offers years of comfort and enjoyment.
