Almost every sofa looks good in a photograph. What separates one that still looks good in fifteen years is entirely hidden: the wood inside the arm, the springs under the seat, the density of the foam, the weight of the fiber wrapped around it. This guide opens an Eilersen up layer by layer, from slow-grown Scandinavian pine dried to 8-10% moisture, to no-zag springs tested past 200,000 impacts, to the pre-compressed fiberfill that separates a sofa that ages well from one that deflates. It closes with a checklist for judging any sofa, from any brand.
