Recently IKEA has discontinued its Kramfors sofa range to make way for its new Kivik sofa range.
We were clicking around the net for affordable leather sofas to recommend to our customers, when we found broken links. Panicked, we kept googling for Kramfors, Kramfors, Kramfors a good 7 minutes.
Disappointed, we immediately called IKEA and a customer service representative told us that they no longer carry Kramfors sofas. That was all there is to it. No explanations. No letter as to why. No farewell we-loved-you-too party. Nada.
A 30 minute drive to IKEA later, our fears were being confirmed. Ikea’s Kramfors range has been replaced by a younger woman! named Kivik! Although she was very pretty (and a bit more conservative than Kramfors was), the nerve of not letting us know sooner.
As Ikea lovers streamed in and out of the store in helium happiness- Ikea slipcovers and sofas were on sale (to soften the blow)- we just sat on the remaining Kramfors for the last time, paying our respects.
But there is hope yet. Comfort Works has got your Kramfors‘ back, literally. We provide custom slipcovers for the Kramfors in its 2 seat, 3 seat and footstool range. The icing on the cake? You can have the slipcovers made in leather too! So if you want to level up or add a couple more years to your Kramfors, visit our website or contact us.
You can also follow us on Twitter or Facebook for more updates.
Do you have any Kramfor covers that resemble the original Myrby Yellow color? I need to recover a chaise, love seat and a 3 seat sofa. I just love the original color….
Hey Rachel,
Unfortunately the only yellow colour we have is our Shire Mustard wool fabric which I’m not a 100% sure whether will be an exact match.
It’s best to get a fabric sample, along with some alternatives here: http://comfort-works.com/en/home/fabric-samples-24
Hope this helps!
Hi I have a 2 seatter and chaise and I’m looking for some replacement fabric covers. IReally I’m looking for grey heavy duty fabric. Can these be made and if so what is the price and delivery duration.
Hey Jo,
Have a look at this page: http://comfort-works.com/en/kramfors-35
It’ll have all the pieces/models that you’re after
The 2 seater starts from $219 in a Dark Grey Canvas Cotton, we ship worldwide for free (in exchange for a feedback)
Cheers,

Hi. We bought Kramfors black leather sofa in 2008 from IKEA in Westchester Ohio, USA. At the time we didn’t get corner piece due to finance situation but we got only 2 sides and used them putting side by side. After 3 months time we wanted to get the corner but it was discontinued. How can we get? If could, is gonna be made in Europe and send to USA or where. Do you have one in the USA by any chance. Help us. Wanted to use this web site but there wasn’t similar black leather. Plus will the size be the same. My worry is the size. What if it will be wrong size. Is there standard size only.
Best wishes,
NAR
Nar, we aren’t the right person to ask for the actual couch itself; we only custom make the slipcover for it 🙂
Hi there, just found your porst about the Kramfors Ikea covers. I have one just like the Yellow one you have on the picture, and am desperate for a new cover. Do you have them? How much and what colors please?
Desperate!!!thanks
We don’t do the yellow one as per Ikea unfortunately, the covers we do are only made in our own fabric designs. Have u tried looking at eBay or Gumtree or Craigslist?
this is a bit offtopic but do you know if one can dissemble a kramfors couch? It just won’t fit thru the staircase of our new appartment.
The only way i know is to remove the metal legs from the sofa, but i think you should know about that already.
Do your Kramfors Fabric Slipcovers fit over both Fabric sofas and Leather sofas? Or just one of the these lines? Which Kramfors line do they fit better?
Thank you.
Hi Natasha,
They can be made to fit either one, you just have to let us know which version it is that you have.
Worth mentioning though, the fabric version of kramfors comes with hard velcro strips at the bottom (the leather version doesn’t) – that basically helps a bit with with the tucking and fitting.
Hope that helps, drop us an email at info@comfortworks.com.au if you’d like to know more.
HI, I have a sofa and chaise combination sofa and the leather has worn through on the sofa side cushion. Do you supply a replacement?
