5 best IKEA 3-seater sofas

You don’t need a 2-seater, but a 3-seater for your home. We know, sometimes the 2-seater just isn’t big enough, whether you’re living alone, with a partner or have a tiny family of 3. Without further ado, let’s take a look at the 5 best IKEA 3-seater sofas that are currently available in the market.

1. Uppland

The Uppland has seats that run deep – 58cm (22⅞ inches) and a height that’s 47cm (18½ inches). The length of the sofa is 224cm (88¼ inches).

The Uppland’s seat cushions are made of pocket springs, high resilience foam and polyester fibres, so it’s easy to bounce off the cushion when you need to get up and get going. According to IKEA, the cushions are able to retain their shape year after year thanks to the combination of polyester fibres and cut foam.

2. Friheten

The Friheten is not exactly identified as a 3-seater, but it seats 3 people and it’s too good to not be listed here. The Friheten is a sleeper sofa, so apart from sitting and lounging on it as a sofa, it could be turned into a bed for your overnight guest too.

Considering that this is a sleeper sofa, it surely comes with a length that’s longer than the Ektorp at 225cm (88⅝ inches). It also offers pretty deep seating that’s 61cm (24 inches).

Even though the Friheten is upholstered, we are able to make machine-washable slipcovers for it. Take a look at the slipcover styles for the Friheten.

3. Finnala

Seen as the successor to the Vimle (which has been discontinued in the US and Canada), the Finnala is similar to the Vimle in so many ways. Apart from a few parts that have increased length, the Finnala is pretty much similar to the Vimle.

The 55cm-deep seat cushions are firm and offer a lot of space for you to sit comfortably. That’s also because of the pocket springs in the seat cushions and wadding on the uppermost layer that keeps it springy.

However, with only 6 colour options, you might want to consider getting a naked sofa and slipcover it with customisable sofa covers instead.

4. Harlanda

The Harlanda 3-seater is by far the widest among other sofas on this list, standing at 249cm (98 inches). The seat height is also comparatively higher than the others, which is 49cm (19¼ inches). If you’re tall, the Harlanda 3-seater would be a great fit in your home.

The back cushions are removable, giving you the freedom to arrange them as you like. Its seat cushions are plush, and based on how wide it is, nap times on the Harlanda are awesome!

5. Färlov

One look and you know the Färlov is a stylish one. Although the small pillows look a little extra, but they also add a touch of fanciness together with the sloped arms. Plus, we’ll never complain about getting too many pillows.

The Färlov comes in 4 slipcover options, but it seems to look better in lighter colours such as the white one by IKEA. Don’t let the colour options stop you from picking this sofa. We’ve got so many fabric colours and styles that you can choose from. You can either purchase a naked sofa and use our slipcovers, or just buy it in white and get an extra set of beautiful slipcovers from Comfort Works.
