Question 1

What is the difference between a left-hand and right-hand corner sofa?

Accepted Answer

The hand tells you which side the long section (the chaise or return) is on as you look at the sofa from the front. On a right-hand corner sofa (RHC) the return is on your right; on a left-hand corner (LHC) it is on your left. Getting this right is essential, because the sofa has to fit the corner you have. Stand in the room facing where the sofa will go, decide which side the return should run, and match that to LHC or RHC on the product page.

Question 2

What is the difference between a corner sofa and a U-shaped sofa?

Accepted Answer

A corner sofa has a single return that forms one right angle, tucking into a corner. A U-shaped sofa has two returns and wraps around three sides of a space, seating more people but needing much more floor area. This sale includes both, along with corner chaise designs. Choose a standard corner for most rooms and a U-shape only where you have the space; always check the full footprint against your room before ordering.

Question 3

What is a corner chaise?

Accepted Answer

A corner chaise is a corner sofa where the shorter return takes the form of an open chaise — a longer seat without a full back at the end — rather than a squared-off corner. It gives a relaxed place to stretch out. The Somerford models in this sale are corner chaise designs, available in left-hand and right-hand versions. As with any corner sofa, check the orientation and the exact dimensions before ordering.

Question 4

Is everything in this collection reduced?

Accepted Answer

This is a sale collection, so the products shown here are the corner sofas we currently have reduced. Prices and which items are included change over time as stock and promotions change, so the live product pages are always the authoritative source for the current price and any saving. If an item you want is not shown, contact our team on 02476 705 600 and they will let you know what is available.

Question 5

How long does the sale last?

Accepted Answer

Sale periods and individual reductions vary, and some items are longer-term clearance while others are shorter promotions, so we cannot give a single end date. Because stock on sale items can sell through, it is worth ordering promptly if you find the right corner sofa. Check the product page for the current price, and contact us on 02476 705 600 if you would like to confirm availability before ordering.

Question 6

How long does a corner sofa last?

Accepted Answer

There is no single guaranteed figure. Lifespan depends on the frame construction, the upholstery, how heavily the sofa is used and how well it is cared for — details that are not all confirmed in the current product data. A well-cared-for corner sofa kept out of direct heat and sunlight generally lasts longer. Check each product page for the specification once published, and follow the material-appropriate care guidance below to get the most from your sofa.

Question 7

What size room do I need for a corner sofa?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the design and its footprint, which vary widely in this sale from compact corners to large U-shapes and recliner corners. Exact dimensions are not confirmed in the current data, so plan the full footprint, including the return, and leave walking space around the used sides. Always measure your room and check the exact product dimensions before ordering rather than judging from the seat count alone.

Question 8

How do I measure for a corner sofa?

Accepted Answer

Measure the length of both walls the sofa will sit against, then the depth of the main run and the return, and the height if it sits under a window. Mark the full L or U shape on your floor with tape so you can see how it sits and how much walking room remains. Confirm which orientation you need (left or right hand) at the same time, and treat the published product-page measurements as authoritative before ordering.

Question 9

How much walking space should I leave, and how do I check access?

Accepted Answer

Leave around 40–60cm of clear walkway where you pass the sofa, and room in front for a coffee table and leg room. Corner sofas are large, so also measure the width and height of every doorway, hallway, stairwell and tight turn each section must pass through. Whether a sofa splits into sections for delivery is not confirmed in the current data, so confirm the packaged dimensions before your delivery date.

Question 10

What is the difference between fabric, velvet and leather here?

Accepted Answer

This sale includes all three. Fabric offers an everyday, softer finish and is used on most designs; velvet, on the Sloane and Scott models, has a soft pile and a richer look that shows pressure marks; and leather, on the Roma recliners, wipes clean easily. One range uses the term Alaska Fabric. Performance properties are not confirmed in the current data, so choose on look, feel and the care routine you are happy to keep up.

Question 11

What is Alaska Fabric?

Accepted Answer

Alaska Fabric is the exact upholstery term used on the Bishop corner sofas in this sale. We keep this product-specific wording rather than reclassifying it, because the precise composition is not confirmed in the current data, and it should not be described as velvet or as a generic fabric until the approved specification defines it. Check the Bishop product pages, or contact us on 02476 705 600, for the confirmed material detail before ordering.

Question 12

How do I clean a fabric, velvet or leather corner sofa?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the material. Vacuum fabric with an upholstery attachment and blot spills promptly. Brush velvet gently in the direction of the pile and blot rather than rub. Wipe leather with a soft, barely damp cloth and keep it away from direct heat. Across all three, deal with spills quickly and keep the sofa out of prolonged direct sunlight. Specific care codes are not confirmed in the current data, so follow the product care label.

Question 13

Can I remove and wash the covers?

Accepted Answer

Cover removability is not confirmed in the current product data for the sofas in this sale, so please do not assume the covers come off. Some designs have fixed upholstery while others have removable covers. Check the individual product page or care label before attempting to remove anything, or call our team on 02476 705 600 and we will confirm the details for a specific model.

Question 14

Are there corner sofa beds or storage options in the sale?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The sale includes corner sofa beds, such as the Verona High Back sofa beds, and U-shape corner beds with storage, such as the Brixton models, which offer an occasional bed and, in some cases, hidden storage. The exact bed mechanism, mattress and storage dimensions are not confirmed in the current data, so check the individual product page, or call 02476 705 600, before ordering if the bed or storage function is important to you.

Question 15

Are there recliner corner sofas in the sale?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The Roma leather corner sofas in this sale are manual recliners, available in larger multi-seat corner configurations. A recliner corner sofa needs clearance for the reclining action as well as for the corner shape, so plan extra space. Several are subject to availability, so check the live product page for stock and the exact mechanism, or contact us on 02476 705 600, before ordering.

Question 16

Can I return a corner sofa, and what is the return window?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We offer a 14-day returns window, sometimes described as 14-day change of mind, so you have time to be sure the sofa is right for your room. Because corner sofas are large, please keep the packaging until you are certain and check the exact returns conditions for any clearance or sale items. If you need to arrange a return, contact our team on 02476 705 600 and they will talk you through the next steps.

Question 17

What should I do if the sofa arrives damaged?

Accepted Answer

Inspect the sofa on delivery and, if you notice any damage or a fault, report it to us as soon as possible on 02476 705 600 with photographs of the issue. Keeping the packaging and noting any concern at the point of delivery helps us resolve things quickly. The sooner a problem is reported, the sooner we can arrange a repair, replacement or other suitable resolution for you.

Question 18

Do corner sofas require assembly, and do the sections detach?

Accepted Answer

Assembly and whether the sections detach are not confirmed in the current product data for these sofas. Many corner sofas arrive in sections that connect together, which also helps with access, but this varies by model. Please do not assume a particular setup. Check the individual product page, or call 02476 705 600 before ordering if access or assembly is a concern, and we will confirm what is involved for a specific sofa.

Question 19

What warranty applies?

Accepted Answer

We are not stating a specific warranty term for this sale because the exact cover is not confirmed in the current product data, and we would rather leave it pending than quote a figure we cannot verify. This is worth confirming for the recliner models in particular. Please check the individual product page, or contact our team on 02476 705 600, and they will confirm what applies before you order.

Question 20

Which products are currently in stock?

Accepted Answer

This is a busy sale, so stock moves quickly and a number of models are currently out of stock, including some full colour ranges. Roughly half the collection is available to buy at any time. Treat the live product pages as authoritative, sort by availability to see what you can order today, and use the back-in-stock option on any model that is temporarily unavailable, or call 02476 705 600 for the nearest alternative.

Question 21

Can I still get the sale price if an item is out of stock?

Accepted Answer

If a sale item is out of stock, register for a back-in-stock notification on its product page and you will be alerted when it returns. We cannot guarantee that the same price will still apply when an item comes back, because sale prices change, so it is worth acting promptly on in-stock items. If you would like help finding an available alternative at a similar price, call our team on 02476 705 600.

Question 22

Can I register for a back-in-stock notification?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Any out-of-stock model in the sale offers a “notify me when back in stock” option on its product page. Enter your email there and you will be alerted when that model returns. If you would prefer a corner sofa that is available now, sort the collection by availability, or call us on 02476 705 600 and our team will recommend an in-stock alternative in a similar style and colour.

Question 23

How quickly is delivery?

Accepted Answer

The in-stock corner sofas currently show a delivery timeframe on their individual product pages. Please note there is an internal wording point being resolved between the product-level delivery message and our standard delivery policy, so we treat the timeframe shown on each product page as the authoritative one at the point of ordering. Delivery is free to England and Wales and carried out by our two-person team. Confirm the current timeframe on the product page before ordering.

Question 24

Are finance options available on sale items?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can spread the cost with PayPal Pay in 3, Klarna Pay in 3 or Pay in 30, and Clearpay in 4 interest-free fortnightly payments, or choose DivideBuy for a longer-term plan. These options are interest-free where stated and subject to credit check. The exact plans available are shown at checkout. If you would like help choosing a finance option on a sale corner sofa, call our team on 02476 705 600.
