Is corduroy a good choice for a family sofa?

It is soft and durable, but the ribbed texture traps lint, crumbs and pet hair, and it is harder to wipe clean than leather or flat-weave fabric. It suits adults and older children better than a household with pets or toddlers.

How big a room does the Berlin need?

At 106 inches long and 78 inches wide, it needs a wall run of roughly nine feet plus clearance for walking around the chaise. Measure doorways and hallways before delivery, since the two pieces arrive separately but are still large.

Does the chaise sit on the left or the right?

The configuration is an armless sofa piece plus a right-arm-facing chaise, so the chaise sits on the right as you face the sofa. Check your room layout against that before ordering.

Will the dark brown fabric fade?

Corduroy can fade with prolonged direct sunlight, so keep it out of strong afternoon sun or use blinds. Rotating and flipping the cushions helps even out wear.

How do I care for corduroy?

Vacuum the ribs with a brush attachment regularly and blot spills rather than rub. Brush the nap back in one direction after cleaning to keep the texture even.
