I love my modular sofa – but these are the 5 things I wish I knew before I bought it

King Living 1977 modular sofa in three different coloured modules in a living room.

Last year, I bought my first ever sofa as after years of living in furnished rentals, I’d moved into my first unfurnished flat. I ended up choosing a modular sofa which started something of a love affair with all things modular sofas for me – seriously, I’m their biggest fan. Because once you go modular, I don’t think you can go back. But in truth, there are a few things I wish I knew before buying my modular sofa.

As part of my job as Room Decor Editor here at Ideal Home, since buying my sofa I have done a lot of extra research around the topic to further inform my guide to best modular sofas and to improve my knowledge and expertise on sofas in general. So in comparison to what I know now, I was pretty clueless back then and I feel like I almost just got lucky that I chose one of the best sofas on the market (at least in my opinion), the King Living 1977 modular sofa.
