Buying Guide

Tartan armchairs have finally descended from the Scottish Highlands to bring us and the rest of the world some Scottish style. Tartan is a stunning and timeless pattern that looks great in any room. It even comes in several different styles.

Today, we'll talk about how you can bring home the best tartan armchair, which is the best way for you to make your home even cozier. Our buying guide will help you avoid costly mistakes and make the right buying decision.

Think about your room's layout. Then, pick a spot that you will allocate for the furniture piece. Measure this spot carefully and make room for any existing furniture. Your home's new addition should fit in the room comfortably. Leave enough space for you to move around the piece without having to squeeze yourself past it.

The simplest way you can figure out the size of your tartan armchair is by using a masking tape or newspaper in outlining the furniture's dimensions on the floor. Do so before you click that "buy" button on an online furniture store.

Of course, you need to consider the width of your doorframe as you wouldn't want to experience problems by the time the piece is delivered to your home.

Lastly, you must ensure that there's enough space in your room to position the armchair away from the radiator (if you have one), so you wouldn't feel the direct heat that's coming off of it. It's important that you leave a good distance between the radiator and the furniture piece as it'll guard against cracking or heat damage.

What types of armchair fillings are there?

There are three types of armchair fillings: foam, fiber, and feather.

  • Foam is the primary filling in most armchairs as it gives a firm experience while retaining the seat's shape. The downside to the material is that it doesn't give a very comfortable feeling when sat on.
  • As for fiber, you may already know that it's man-made or synthetic. It's much like a duvet's inner material, which offers medium comfort. The disadvantage of this type of filling is that it needs to be plumped up regularly.
  • Last but not the least is feather, which is the most luxurious, relaxed, and soft solution. Still, it would need constant plumping.

The filling that you choose for the seat will make a difference as to how much relaxation and enjoyment you can get from the armchair. Think about what you'll be using the chair for most. A soft armchair is great for curling up as you watch your favorite TV shows, while a firmer seat will be able to support your posture which is needed when you are entertaining guests and catching up on some reading.

You're now ready to dive headfirst into the marketplace! Keep what you've learned from our buying guide in mind and you'll find the right tartan armchair.
