What is the best configuration for a sectional sofa with ottoman?

The best configuration for a microfiber sectional sofa with ottoman is an L-shape or a full U-shape design.

A U-shape configuration can include two even, long sides or may have one side shorter than the other. You can use a matching ottoman to elongate one of the sides, or you can place the ottoman directly opposite the sofa as occasional seating for a space that facilitates conversation.

An ottoman will neatly fit either square with the sides to create a faux U-shape to provide extra seating for an L-shape sectional sofa. Alternatively, place the ottoman in the corner of the couch to create an enormous lounging area, ideal for family movie nights.

Are microfiber sofas easy to clean?

Yes, microfiber sofas are exceptionally easy to clean. Besides the incredible comfort of a microfiber sectional sofa with an ottoman, its low maintenance material may be its most attractive feature.

Microfiber is a stain-resistant material, so if you happen to spill on the sofa, it’s possible to get it clean and dry fast. To clean up a spill, you’ll need rubbing alcohol in a small spray bottle, a washcloth, and a sponge of medium-hard bristled brush.

Spray the spill area with the alcohol in the bottle, keeping a distance of 3” to 6” from the fabric. Next, rub the stain with the washcloth using circular movements until it lifts out of the material. Then, simply let the spot air dry, and the sofa is as good as new.

Because a matching ottoman is the same height as the sofa, it also makes an excellent coffee table. Use a serving tray on top of the ottoman to provide a stable flat surface for coffee mugs, remotes, or decorative items.

Is a microfiber sectional sofa soft?

Your microfiber sectional sofa with ottoman will be very soft. Microfiber is a fabric that’s newer on the upholstery scene.

You’ll find that it feels slightly like velvet, but it’s much more cost-efficient and worlds easier to clean. If you take care of your microfiber sectional, you’ll enjoy its softness for years to come.
