Thousands of companies are working in the field of upholstered furniture production today, and each considers its product the best (or tries to convince the consumer of this). How not to make a mistake in choosing? The surest way is to analyze reviews. The “Formula Sofa” is the subject of our study today.
Factory "Formula Sofa"
Year of foundation - 1989. It is located in the city of Kirovo-Chepetsk. As the name implies, the factory specializes in the production of upholstered furniture. What, according to the manufacturers, is the “formula” for creating the perfect sofa? Here are the components of success:
- use of modern technology;
- attracting the best furniture specialists from Germany and Italy;
- large-scale production, which allows selling goods at low prices with high quality;
- quality control of raw materials.
Positive feedback: "Formula Sofa" did not fail
The first thing that attracts consumers to factory products is the lower price of furniture than other manufacturers. That is, the model in the "Formula Sofa" will cost less (but not by much) than its competitors. The next plus is quality upholstery materials. It is mainly genuine leather and good fabric. Another attractive point is the successful design of furniture and convenient mechanisms for transforming sofas into berths. The furniture “Sofa Formula”, which is not widespread in Russia, is also produced. For example, recliners. What are they? These are large comfortable chairs that can be transformed using mechanisms: if you press the lever near the armrest, the front panel rises and turns into a soft comfortable footrest. Now in the chair you can almost lie with legs stretched out. In addition, the recliner rotates around its axis and swings. Like customers and a large selection of upholstered furniture.
It was smooth on paper ...
Yes, forget about the ravines! As usual, not only positive reviews, "Formula Sofa" deserves. The main (and biggest) minus is product quality. Consumers note that after one or two months of not very active use of the sofa, the transformation mechanism fails. There are many complaints about the quality of upholstery materials: there have been cases when the top layer of the skin was exfoliated, leaving spots on the upholstery similar to the result of abuse of a tan in humans. By the way, the company recognized that this is a manufacturer’s marriage. There are complaints about the work of craftsmen involved in sewing upholstery. Here and there uneven lines are found, often the allowances for the seams are very small, which leads to the fact that they part. Quite often, spring blocks do not withstand loads - springs fall out.
The trick is that the spring mounts are made of fragile plastic. But the Formula Sofa prices are not budgeted for their products! Buyers have the right to expect that, having paid 100,000 rubles (the average cost of a sofa), they will receive high-quality furniture, which they will use for many years.
Draw conclusions
As we can see, factory products receive far from unambiguous feedback from consumers. “Formula Sofa” has been producing upholstered furniture for several years, and during this time everything happened. The choice is yours.
