|

[Sofas and couches](https://www.sofasandcouches.com/) are long, upholstered pieces of furniture which can be used to sit or lounge. In the context of conversation, both terms are used interchangeably. Designers prefer to differentiate between the two.

A used couch is another option to save. While you won't be able to customize this type of sofa, it's more affordable than purchasing a brand new one. There are bargains to be found at local market and yard sales, as well as on the online marketplaces of major furniture retailers.

When looking for a sofa, think about the frame quality. Webbing or mesh are cheaper alternatives, whereas the best couches are made from a hardwood frame that has been kiln dried like oak, beech, or beech. There are a variety of springs for a sofa. The ones that are less expensive don't have springs, whereas the ones with higher quality may have serpentine springs or hand-tied eight-way springs.

Fast fashion is a trend that sustainability experts have long warned against. However, it's important to think about the environmental impact large pieces such as couches which will be thrown away. A couch made of sustainable materials produced by a local manufacturer is likely to leave a smaller carbon footprint than one imported from abroad.

|
|
||||||
|
The process of making a sofa is also important to take into account when assessing its eco-friendliness. Does the company use renewable energy sources for its production? Does it use recycled materials to reduce waste? What are the processes that the manufacturing facilities it employs run in terms of protecting natural resources and minimizing pollution?

|
Find a sofa that is made from sustainable materials. You can find them at a vintage or second-hand seller. Many of these sellers offer professional cleaning and repairs to prolong the longevity of furniture, preventing it from ending up in the garbage. Check out the offerings on Kaiyo which is a marketplace that sells and buys pre-loved furnishings to prevent them from being discarded.

For a more sustainable option, look for couches made of organic fabrics or sustainably sourced woods. VivaTerra is one example. It makes couches in the USA using wood sourced ethically and organic hemp or cotton certified by GOTS. Their foam is Cradle To Cradle certified and they use no formaldehyde or flame retardants on their cushions. They also ship their sofas in corrugate containers made from 100% recycled materials and offset all of their carbon emissions.
