Hi all, looking to order a loveseat from ikea (or a similar place, where it can be delivered to my apartment building in boxes disassembled since I don’t have a car or anyone to help me with the couch) for my new apartment. My budget is around $800. I was looking at the 2 seater versions of UPPLAND , PARUP, and VINLINDEN and have seen some mixed reviews for all of them. Some people really like them and some people say that the couches are firm and uncomfortable. I am looking for a relatively soft couch and I will be using it as my primary seating, so I am looking for something that will hold up for a while. If anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate it, thanks!

As in the title! I purchased this sofa/loveseat second hand, and the tag on the bottom (in images) has no product number. It generally fits the dimensions of the Parup loveseat, (65 wide) but the depth is an inch shorter and the feet look different. Additionally, when I purchased a Parup sofa cover for it the cover didn’t fit, and now I’m totally unsure what product this is. I only have a Reg number: VA 19717 (PL) (Poland??) and an ID number: LL1232587. I called Ikea and they said they really don’t know how to identify the product based on this into. Am I totally out of luck here? Appreciate any leads.

Hi everyone!

I'm in the market for a new couch and would love to hear your experiences and recommendations when it comes to IKEA's sofa lineup. I’m especially interested in models that hold up well over time — ones that don’t lose their shape or become uncomfortable after just a couple of years.

Comfort is really important to me, as the main use will be lounging and watching TV/movies. I want something that’s great for sitting, lying down, and just casually slouching. Bonus points if it has open space underneath for a robot vacuum to easily clean.

It’s also important to me that the couch looks good — clean lines, nice design, something that feels cozy but still aesthetically pleasing in the living room. I’d prefer something in a greenish or blueish tone to add some color and life to my otherwise all-white rental apartment.

I’ve seen some mixed reviews saying certain models feel great in the store but quickly become too firm or lose support. Has that been your experience too? Or do you have a couch that still feels great after years of use and also looks nice in your space?
Or should I look elsewhere?

Really appreciate any insights you can share!
