boxes and are then assembled in under five minutes. What’s more, Snug can usually
deliver within a week - gone are the days of waiting eight weeks for a sofa to arrive, only
to realise it won’t fit through the door. The other sofa options include modular elements,
helping your sofa grow with your family - and they come in a whole host of stain-resistant
(coffee, wine, small hand prints, paw prints) colours.
Owner Dan was also sceptical about ordering a sofa online - Snug Sofa have UK stores to
try out the products, but these were not in his locale. Though, he admits he needn’t have
worried “the sofa is amazingly comfortable - my expectations were low as it was a sofa
bed, but amazingly it’s even more comfy than my normal sofa upstairs. That, combined
with lightning fast delivery, made something I was dreading incredibly easy. Because of
lockdown, we haven’t had guests yet, but they’ll be able to sleep on a queen sized bed,
which is pretty impressive for a sofa bed! It was a good opportunity to inject some colour
into the room too!”
Did the couple have any regrets from the project? “Only that I wish we’d done it sooner” says
Kate. “Working on renovations this size are intimidating, but having a good plan of each step
and executing it are the key points - you do have to consider the unique challenges of your
own project and try to plan ahead to a degree. We were just desperate for some extra space
with us both working from home, and this has given a new lease of life to an area we hadn’t
been using. It feels like a natural extension of our home and I love all the products we’ve
used - so much so that we are thinking of changing up some rooms upstairs!”
