3 Seater Leather Sofas

A sofa is more than a place to sit when that sofa is a three seater leather sofa. Large and luxurious, our leather 3-seater sofas score full marks for style and are the perfect place to relax any time of day. If this is the sofa for you we congratulate you on your decision – a leather 3-seater sofa is always going to look and feel fabulous. But if you're spoiled for choice, we’re here to guide you to the perfect one.

Choosing the right leather 3 seater sofa

If you’re already browsing three seater leather sofas, you probably have a pretty good idea of what you want from a sofa in terms of comfort. Soft and luxurious, leather upholstery is definitely synonymous with relaxation.

The main question you may face is around sofa style. Do you want a leather 3-seater sofa that’s more classic or more contemporary in style? Do you prefer the traditional look of a Chesterfield sofa with its scroll arms and sumptuous buttoning, or a high-back modern sofa with wide arms and comfy headrests? Do you want a chaise end designed to make stretching out even easier, or a three seater leather sofa with power recliners? Our leather 3-seater sofa collection includes all of the above and more. Not sure which style is right for you? It’s often better to embark on a sofa search with an open mind – you may very well surprise yourself.

Starting with the basics, our leather 3-seater sofas tend to be “classic back” in style. This means that the back cushions match the seat cushions, seat for seat, unlike “pillow back” style where back cushioning is provided by a group of larger and smaller cushions which can be positioned wherever you like. Pillow back sofas tend to have a more casual look while classic back sofas feel a little neater and tidier, but neither one is better than the other. It all comes down to personal preference.

In terms of colour, our leather 3-seater sofas come in every hue, from classic leather colours to unexpected modern shades. Love the idea of classic brown leather sofa? You’ll find every shade from light taupe to dark chocolate brown. Want a contemporary neutral – something on-trend but still timeless? Check out our grey 3-seater recliner sofa. If you’d like your living room to reflect your bold personality, know that our leather 3-seater sofas come in a really wide range of colours including red, blue and orange. (We especially love our green leather 3-seater sofas – cool and contemporary yet undeniably sophisticated).

Functionality is another consideration. We’d always recommend that you choose a recliner sofa over a non-reclining sofa if your budget and the layout of your living room allows. Remember, power recliner sofas need to be located close to a power source to avoid having unsightly extension leads running across your lounge floor.

If you need your new sofa to do double duty as a sofa bed?, you might be interested to know that we offer three seater leather sofa beds for that perfect combination of sofa style and sofa utility. Even if you have a guest room with a guest bed or a sofa bed, having another sofa bed in the living room maximises sleeping options at busy family times like Christmas or if your teens have multi-friend sleepovers.

There’s always a lot to consider when buying a new sofa. If you’d like a little extra assistance as you research and choose your new three seater leather sofa, take a look at our upholstered furniture care guide. Written by the upholstery experts here at Furniture Village, this online guide walks you through all the questions you need to ask as you choose your new sofa.

What if a three seater leather sofa isn’t right for me?

Leather is a fabulous upholstery choice. It really does stand the test of time as it’s surprisingly hardwearing and always in style. Leather actually improves with age, and many leather sofa owners say they prefer the look of a worn-in leather sofa.

But if leather isn't right for you, be sure to take a look at our 3-seater fabric sofas. We’re pleased to offer a huge range of fabric sofa styles, so if you’ve seen a leather 3-seater sofa in a style you love, chances are that we’ll be able to show it to you in fabric too. Choosing fabric upholstery also means you have access to a really wide range of options – cotton blends, linens, tweeds, woven fabrics, microfibres and more. Some fabric types are more family friendly (meaning easier to clean) than others, so if you have pets, young children or even an accident-prone spouse, be sure to do a little research beforehand.

The finishing touches

Another really great benefit of choosing a leather 3-seater sofa is that leather sofas just seem to work with every style of furniture from traditional oak furniture to modern high-gloss furniture. That being said, if you’re ready for a floor-to-ceiling living room makeover, be sure you spend some time browsing our living room style gallery for inspiration.

For a simple room refresh, our home accessories department offers a wonderful section of lighting, cushions, and ornamental finishing touches. A new rug and pair of new table lamps might be all that your living room needs – alongside your new leather 3-seater sofa – to feel like a whole new space. Just be sure that there’s enough seating for all the family plus a couple more guest seats beside. Add an armchair or two – perhaps leather armchairs to match your new three seater leather sofa – for the ultimate in family relaxation.

Caring for your new leather 3 seater sofa

A three seater leather sofa can be a big purchase, so you’ll want to make sure that you take good care of it. Remember how we said that leather tends to improve with age and that many people prefer that softened and worn-in leather sofa look? Leather that’s taken good care of most definitely tends to wear in better. Please make sure that you read the manufacturer's care instructions from start to finish, and then take a look at the leather furniture section of our guest bedupholstered furniture care guide.
