Questions to Ask Yourself About Modular Furniture
As you consider whether to add a made-to-order couch to your furniture collection, there are a few questions you may wish to ask yourself:- How many seats will I need? Obviously, you will want to account for the current number of people in your family and any furry companions you plan to allow on your couch. However, don’t forget to consider whether you plan to grow your family or invite over regular visitors. Check out the Size Guide here: https://bit.ly/comfy-size-guide
- How much space do I have? Many people would love a nine-seater sectional, but not everyone has the space for it. Measure your space so you can be sure to get the right size and number of pieces for your custom couch.
- Will I be adding in any other seating, tables, rugs, throw pillows, floor pillows, or other furniture and accessories? Consider drawing a sketch of your space to position items where you want them to go. Again, measure everything so you can be sure everything will fit. Or, ask for help from an interior designer.
- Do I want to pick out my custom couch online, or would I rather visit a showroom? If you’re in the Vancouver area, you can book a showroom visit to see our couches in person. Note that you can also request free swatches from CouchHaus, and we’ll ship them to you within two to three days.
- Am I comfortable picking out my custom couch by myself, or could I benefit from expert design services? While picking out a CouchHaus couch is simple, it’s also nice to get an expert’s take on design. We offer free design and space-planning services to help you bring your vision to life. Simply book a virtual consultation or chat with us online, and we’ll be happy to work with you on your project. We’ll account for your space, your challenges, your lifestyle needs, and other factors to make sure your new made-to-order couch is a perfect fit in your home.
- How long does it take to order and build a new couch? For CouchHaus custom couches, you can expect a lead time of 12 to 16 weeks, excluding weekends and holidays. If you need your couch sooner, consider our in-stock and Quick Ship options, which have a shorter lead time.
- What are the store policies? It’s important to understand a store’s warranty and refund policies before buying a custom couch. Here at CouchHaus, we want you to be thrilled with your purchase and will work with you to address any issues with your order. Reach out to hello@couchhaus.com for assistance.
