And this is our new sofa...

So here's our new sofa... fits all our specs and makes the livingroom look more spacious because it's a L design, unlike the previous day bed + 3 seater.

The dimensions are just right, without customization. However, this shop does all sorts of customization if you prefer different legs, length, firmness and even dimensions (which means a whole new look). I understand they charge a customization fee of RM500 but as with all things in Malaysia, this is negotiable.


This L shape is 10.5feet in length and the L measures up to 6.5ft. The beautiful part is it comes with 6 stools - 3 on each side of the arm rest so it saves space. When we have many guests, we just pull out the stools, voila!

Besides the stools, I like the armrests.  It measures around 8inches, and just nice for my laptop and ipad to rest as I do my work.

I'd say the kids' favourite would be the headrest.  As with many sofa these days, it's adjustable.  So that suits us very nicely.  If pushed all the way down, it becomes flat and that's where the kids lay or sit (yes, they have taken the sofa to greater heights).

Another version comes with extendable seats but we didn't want that.

So all in, after haggling... I think we got quite a good bargain considering the quality and workmanship is commendable... and comes with 10 year warranty too - even the armrest!

The kids can now put their bags on the sofa, and Vic can sit on the sofa with her soiled uniform after school, WITHOUT the mother screaming at them.  Maid is happy too that she don't have to vacuum and wash the covers anymore.

@eugene, yes they are all over the sofa. That William even "helped himself" whilst the lorry man was undressing the sofa, ie taking out the plastic wrappings. Haha! Vic has claimed the corner L for herself. : )

Looks really good and practical. It has been so long since I looked at sofas. Did not know sofas can be sophisticated now.

Looks good. Not easy to get a big sofa without any custom fit. Yup, the stools def a good idea!

But for me, I changed from black leather sofa to white leather sofa. Next round, I will go for black again. I still jump when the kids eat and drop stuff on the white sofa ;)

Sofa looks good. I have always like leather sofa and even for our car seats. Less dust which gives problems to sensitive nose like my wife and kids. And thanks very much for the invitation to link up our blog.. Would love that very much. Keep in touch ya.. :)
