The Pro’s and Con’s of a low or high sitting sofa

Are you in the market for a new sofa and trying to decide whether to go for a low or high sitting style? At Sheepbridge Interiors, we understand that choosing the right sofa is an important decision that can greatly impact the overall look and feel of your living space. In this blog post, we'll be discussing the pros and cons of low and high sitting sofas to help you make an informed decision.

Low Sitting Sofas:
Pros:
Low sitting sofas tend to have a modern and contemporary feel that can add a sleek and stylish look to your home.
They are great for small spaces as they create an illusion of more open space in the room.
They are ideal for those who prefer a more casual and relaxed seating position, perfect for lounging and watching TV.
In addition, less material and frame work within the sofa could lead to it be less expensive.

Cons:
Low sitting sofas may not be as comfortable for those who prefer a more upright seating position or have trouble getting up from a lower seat.
They may not be the best choice for formal settings, as they tend to have a more casual and informal appearance.
They may not be the best option if you have pets, as low sitting sofas is easier for your pet to climb onto.
They can be more accessible for those with mobility issues, as it is easier to get in and out of the sofa.

High Sitting Sofas:
Pros:
High sitting sofas offer a more traditional and formal look, making them a great choice for more elegant living spaces.
They offer better support for those who prefer a more upright seating position or have trouble getting up from a lower seat.
They may be more comfortable for those who suffer from back or joint pain as they provide better support.
They can be easier to clean and maintain as they are often made with higher quality materials.

Cons:
High sitting sofas may take up more space in the room, making them less suitable for smaller living spaces.
They may not be as casual and relaxed as low sitting sofas, making them less ideal for lounging and watching TV.
