Status Check.
Status: Sofa and Slipcover are available from IKEA, but for some reason the slipcovers are always out of stock.
Slipcover: IKEA Kivik slipcovers available from Comfort Works
Measurements: IKEA Kivik sofa dimensions and measurements.
Cool Factor: Large, spacious, contemporary and modern looking. It has large armrests that serve as additional seating and the armrests can be detached when joining the Kivik with any other Kiviks to create a Kivik sectional.
Ugh Factor: Unnaturally low armrests which just doesn’t feel quite right. It’s also a little pricier than expected.

Our Review.
We were so excited to try the KIVIK for ourselves that we took the day to visit the IKEA store just see how the KIVIK felt in person. To read our full reviews and first impressions on the sofa, click here.
In short, the Kivik is actually quite a looker and somewhat comfortable for an IKEA sofa – but it’s just a little bit pricey.
Although this model is still available at IKEA stores, Comfort Works offers slipcovers in alternative fabric and leather options for this model. Check out our loose fit long skirt Kivik slipcovers as well for the 2 seater & 3 seater models.

Is it possible to convert my kivik sectional into two separate couches? I want to get rid of the corner portion of the sectional. I can’t find on the Ikea website if you can just buy two armrests to do this.
by Hema
Hi Sandra,
That’s a fabulous idea. However, you might want to check with your local IKEA store if they have stock of only the Kivik armrests.
Hope that helps!

I am looking at purchasing the Kivik 5 seater sectional. Can this be assembled with the longer end to the right OR left? In the description online the longer end is to the right (and of course I need it to the left). Thank you!

Hi Amanda,
The Kivik 5-seater sectional can be assembled with the longer end on the left, if you wish. Hope this helps. ?

Hi there,
Could you please provide the answers for a few height measurements?
1) Floor to top of couch frame (back)
2) Floor to top of back cushion
3) Leg height
I’m trying to determine if a semi-disassembled Kivik could fit through a narrow hallway. Thanks!
by Hema
Hi there AJ,
The rough measurements of the back of the Kivik would be about 70 cm. The leg height would be approximately 10 cm high.
Hope this helps.

Do you know if the Kivik corner section but without the corner has the same dimensions as the loveseat? So if I wanted to do just that two-seat section with a pair of Kivik arms, will a Kivik loveseat set of covers fit?
by Chuck
Hey Julianne!
By default from IKEA, the Kivik Corner section minus the corner is indeed the 2-seat section 🙂
So as per your query, if you wanted a 2-seat section + a pair of arms then yes – the Kivik Loveseat covers should theoretically fit.
Hope this helps!

Does anyone have the dimensions needed for ordering replacement seat (not back) cushions for the standard Kivik Sofa?
by Chuck
Hey Bruce,
For the Kivik 3 seater sofa seat cushion cover it should be 91 x 76 x 12 cm.
Hope this helps!
