Guide Review - Review of Lorelei Sofa from Simplicity Sofas

which makes Ready to Assemble (RTA) upholstered furniture. I interviewed owner Jeff

Could be assembled easily within fifteen minutes, and that it was a high quality product. Jeff
Suggested he would send a sample so I could experience the whole process firsthand.
Delivery
The sofa came in less than a month from when the order was placed. Since It's made
In America, the entire process from ordering to delivery usually takes from 4-5 weeks.
It arrived through UPS freight.
Two boxes were delivered weighing about 150 lbs. altogether. 1 box contained the

pillows, legs and hardware.
Assembling the Sofa
The sofa has a one page instruction sheet, but typically it won't be needed.
The assembly requires no tools. It took me about fifteen minutes, but that was because I
was examining everything closely.
With the back folded over the base, the sofa can make its way through the narrowest of
openings, and it would be easy to carry in its disassembled state as it wouldn't be as
heavy as a fully assembled sofa.
If needed it can be disassembled just as quickly, again without tools, and then put back
together again.
The Sofa
The sofas from Simplicity Sofas are modular and come in three sizes:
An 80" full-size, with three 22" cushions
A 74" mid-size with two 30" cushions
A 68" apartment size with two 27" cushions.
The overall widths vary depending on the size of the arms which come in six different
styles. I opted to receive the mid-sized one. Lorelei is also one of their most popular
styles and one can see why.
Assembled, it's a contemporary design with slender arms and a low, cushioned back.
It has an oak frame and seems well suited to smaller spaces because of its design. Even
Though it's a little sofa, the chair is deep enough for a taller person to sit in comfort,
While the seat height makes it comfortable for a person who's less tall. The seat
cushions are firm and 8" in height.
The sofa can be ordered in any of the Business's over 150 fabric choices, or covered in
the customer's own fabric.
Customer Service
Since Simplicity Sofa sells directly to the customer, you get to experience their
outstanding customer service from the beginning to the end. Poor customer service is
The bane of the furniture business, but Simplicity Sofas provides a excellent experience from
the beginning to the end.
The company was recently the recipient of "Beloved Company" status which is
awarded by nationally acclaimed Customer Service authority Jeanne Bliss for the
Highest levels of customer support.
