What is a corduroy sofa?

A sofa upholstered in corduroy — a soft, textured fabric recognisable by the raised cords, or wales, that run across it. That ribbed texture gives a warm, cosy, characterful feel. At Furniture Instore the corduroy range is traditional in style and comes in caramel, shark, brown and beige, as an armchair, 2 and 3 seater, corner and matching sets.

What is corduroy fabric made of?

Corduroy is a hard-wearing woven fabric, usually cotton or a cotton blend, defined by its raised parallel cords with soft channels between them. That corded texture is what gives it its distinctive look and cosy, tactile feel, and it's a durable fabric that has stayed popular for many years.

What is the difference between corduroy and velvet?

They're both soft, but distinct. Velvet has a smooth, all-over plush pile with a sheen. Corduroy has raised parallel cords, or wales, with channels between them, so it has a ribbed texture you can see and feel. We keep corduroy distinct from velvet, plain fabric, suede and leather, so you always know exactly what you're buying.

What colours are available?

Four: caramel, shark, brown and beige. Caramel is a warm golden tan; shark is a deep, cool grey; brown is rich and cosy; and beige is a soft, light neutral. The mid and darker shades such as shark and brown are the most forgiving of everyday marks, while beige rewards a little more care. Check the product grid above for current stock.

What colour is shark?

Shark is a genuine colourway name — not a typo — for a deep, cool grey, a little like the colour of sharkskin. It's smart and contemporary, works with almost any scheme, and hides everyday marks well, which makes it one of the more practical choices in the range.

Do you have corduroy corner sofas?

Yes. A corduroy corner sofa adds plenty of seating in one cosy, L-shaped piece, ideal for larger or open-plan rooms, with the soft ribbed fabric making it an especially inviting spot. When choosing, check whether you need a left-hand or right-hand facing corner and measure both sides plus your doorways and hallways for delivery.

What sizes and combinations are available?

A single armchair, a 2 seater, a 3 seater and a corner, plus matching sofa set combinations such as 3+2, 3+3, 3+2+1 and 2+1+1, with more layouts besides. Smaller sizes suit compact rooms, while the corner and larger sets suit busy family or open-plan spaces. Check the product grid above for what's currently in stock.

Are corduroy sofas durable and hard-wearing?

Yes. Corduroy's tight, corded weave is genuinely hard-wearing and stands up well to daily use, which is part of why it has stayed popular for so long. Like any pile fabric it benefits from regular light care to keep the cords looking their best, and the mid and darker colours are the most forgiving of everyday marks.

How do I clean and care for a corduroy sofa?

Vacuum weekly on a low setting or with an upholstery brush, working along the direction of the cords to lift dust from between the ribs, and plump and rotate the cushions. Blot spills straight away — dab rather than rub, so you don't flatten the pile — and avoid soaking the fabric. For marks, use a cleaner suitable for the fabric, test it on a hidden area first, and check the care label.

What is your returns policy?

We offer a 14-day change of mind returns window from the day your sofa is delivered, on items returned in their original condition. To arrange a return, contact our team within those 14 days and we'll talk you through the next steps. This is in addition to your statutory rights, which cover goods that are faulty or not as described.

What happens if my sofa arrives damaged?

If your sofa arrives with any damage, contact our team as soon as possible — ideally within 48 hours — with a few photographs, and we'll arrange a repair, replacement or collection. It helps to check the sofa over on delivery before the team leaves where you can.

Do I need to assemble the sofa myself?

There's very little to do. Our two-person team brings the sofa into your room and fits any feet or connects any sections on-site, so it's ready to use. Larger sets arrive in pieces that link together, with no tools needed.

What guarantee comes with these sofas?

Every sofa is inspected before it leaves us, and your purchase is protected by your statutory rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, which cover goods that are faulty or not as described. You also have our 14-day change of mind returns. For confirmation of any specific manufacturer guarantee on a particular model, please check the product page or ask our team before you order.
