We have 2 of these sofas in "Hillared" beige color and they look like new after a year. We have a 2 year old kid who jumps on them all the time , we have cleaned it a couple of times but looks firm. I would definitely recommend this sofa.

We've had the 3 seater Kivik for 5 or 6 years I think. It's still a great sofa, I can sleep on it cause the cushions are so comfy. I recently changed the legs and lifted it up a bit higher. I am also planning to buy a new cover from another company in a light colour to update the space as I've had enough of the anthracite. Other than that I'm super pleased with the solid build, quality cushions and overall comfort. Great sofa considering the cost.

For only a two month old sofa, it seems the foam and seams have shifted too much...ie...look at the edges where your knees would be. They're all rolled over towards the floor. More importantly, I read somewhere that the Kivik no longer has the lengths underneath the armrest, but instead moved them under the main part of the sofa. Is this true? If so, it could become problematic if folks ever try to sit on the arms. The old Kivik has the legs supporting the armrests, so it's not an issue. I reaaally like the Kivik in the store, but am a bit wary about the seam shifting and lack of support under the armrests.

A question to anyone and all . . . I will be going to look for a sofa, Kivik is on my list. I see there are comments about the saggy material look/already looking old. Does anyone think it can depend on the choice of fabric? Hillared, Orrsta, or Borred?
@cotafilipe6 жыл бұрын
for a 3 month sofa it seems definitely overly wore off!!
@RobertDevious6 жыл бұрын
The cushions are memory foam, and it makes them look a lot more "dented" or "grooved" than they really are.
@cotafilipe6 жыл бұрын
thank you for the reply Robert. Still, i think the sofa looks overly wore off for just 3 months of use. However, this is far from being an expensive sofa, so "you get what you pay for", and i think it is worth the money. Where i am at, if you are willing (or can $$) spend, around 60-70% more on a couch, you can get a customised couch with much higher quality standards than this one. Good luck
