What's included in this collection?

98 black leather-look sofas and matching sets across ten ranges — Valerie, Verona, Roma, Sienna, Valencia, Box, Chesterfield, Valencia Electric, Cinema and Outlet. It covers single 2 and 3 seaters, sets up to 3+2+1, and fixed, manual-recliner and electric-recliner options. Most are in stock.

Are these sofas genuine leather?

It varies by product, so we don't claim the whole range is genuine leather. Some are genuine or bonded leather and others are leather-look upholstery — the Chesterfield models, for example, are a bonded-leather-style finish. Check the individual product page for the exact material of any sofa you're considering.

What's the difference between fixed, manual and electric recliners?

A fixed sofa has no moving parts. A manual recliner (Roma, Valencia) tilts back using a handle you operate yourself, with no power needed. An electric recliner (Valencia Electric, Cinema) moves at the touch of a button but needs a mains socket within reach. Both reclining types need clearance behind to tilt back.

Which ranges are reclining?

Roma and Valencia are manual reclining ranges; Valencia Electric and Cinema are electric reclining. The Valerie, Verona, Sienna, Box and Chesterfield ranges are fixed (non-reclining). Check the product title and page to confirm the mechanism, as it's stated per product.

Do any sofas have cup holders?

The Cinema electric recliner sets are the ones confirmed to include two cup holders each, built in for a home-cinema feel. No other range should be assumed to have cup holders — check the specific product page. As electric recliners, the Cinema sets also need a power socket within reach.

What configurations can I buy?

Individual 2 and 3 seater sofas, plus matching sets in 2+1, 2+2, 2+1+1, 3+1, 3+2, 3+1+1, 3+2+1 and 3+3. The notation shows how seats split across pieces — a 3+2 is a 3 seater plus a 2 seater, and 3+2+1 adds an armchair. Use the filters to narrow to what you want.

What is the difference between a 3+2 and a 3+2+1 set?

A 3+2 set is a 3 seater sofa plus a 2 seater sofa. A 3+2+1 adds a single armchair, giving an extra individual seat and the most coordinated seating. The 3+2+1 needs more floor space, so measure your room and plan the layout before choosing.

Which configuration suits a family?

Families often choose a 3+2 or 3+1, or a three-piece set such as 3+2+1 for individual armchairs alongside a sofa. For a large room or regular hosting, a 3+3 gives the most seating. Larger sets and reclining suites need substantial floor space, so plan walkways and recline clearance.

How do I measure for a sofa or set?

Measure the wall space and floor depth where the sofa will sit and mark the footprint on the floor, leaving room for walkways and — for recliners — for the seat to tilt back. Then check those figures against the product's dimensions on its page before ordering.

How do I measure doorway and hallway access?

Measure your doorways, hallways, tight turns, staircases and any lift at the narrowest point, for both width and height, and check those against the product dimensions. For a multi-piece set, plan how each piece will be brought in. If in doubt, call us on 02476 705 600 before ordering.

Do I need a socket for an electric recliner?

Yes — electric recliners (the Valencia Electric and Cinema ranges) need a mains socket within reach, and it's worth planning a tidy, trip-safe cable route. Exact cable and plug details vary by product, so check the product page or ask our team on 02476 705 600 if the socket is some distance away.

How should I care for a black leather sofa?

Follow the product-specific care instructions first, as genuine, bonded and leather-look finishes differ. As a general routine, wipe spills promptly with a clean, slightly damp cloth, dust with a soft cloth, and avoid abrasive tools and harsh cleaners. Keep the sofa out of prolonged direct sunlight and excessive heat.

How long will a black leather sofa last?

There's no single figure — it depends on the material, how much it's used, how well it's cared for and the product's construction. We don't quote a fixed number of years or make durability claims. Following the care guidance and checking the product page for its specification is the best guide.

Are the products in stock?

Most are — availability is shown live on each product. At the time of writing, 82 of 98 are in stock, with the out-of-stock lines mainly in the Outlet range, the Box sets and the two Roma corner sofas. You can request a back-in-stock alert on anything unavailable, and order promptly if a product shows only a few left.

How quickly is delivery?

Delivery is free to England and Wales by a two-person team, and timeframes can vary by product.
