Article Sven review

Article Sven ranks third because it is the best value for a full-size sofa: $1,299 buys an 88-inch tufted sofa with two bolster pillows. Article calls it its most popular sofa. The frame is kiln-dried solid pine with solid rubberwood legs and nylon webbing, and the cushions are high-density polyurethane foam with polyester fiber. The Ratine Buff fabric we priced is 100% polyester and rated at 50,000 rubs on the Martindale abrasion test, which Article notes is well above the 20,000-rub industry standard. The seat is 24 inches deep and 19 inches high. Assembly takes about 10 minutes, and Article backs the purchase with a 30-day satisfaction guarantee. Leather versions in Charme Tan start at $1,699, and a 72-inch loveseat is also available. The limits are a fixed, non-modular shape, spot-clean-only care and a delivery estimate to Los Angeles of January 16 to 27 for the color we checked. We compared documented features and published prices and did not sit on the sofa.
