Sofa 3-seater with chaise longue, VidaXL VidaXL model 160 cm, black velvet

The VidaXL 3-seater sofa with chaise longue in black velvet is a compact upholstered seating solution with a 160 cm seating width. Designed for living rooms and lounge areas, this sofa combines a traditional three-seat layout with an integrated chaise longue to allow both upright seating and extended reclining. The black velvet upholstery delivers a soft surface and a subtle matte sheen suited to contemporary and transitional interiors.

Advantages

The velvet-covered cushions provide a tactile, comfortable feel while the chaise longue section increases versatility for relaxation or casual seating. Its 160 cm seating width makes it suitable for smaller rooms where a full-size sofa would be impractical. The combination of three-seat capacity and an extended lounge area allows multiple seating arrangements without occupying excessive floor space.

Suitable for

• Compact living rooms and studio apartments where space efficiency is required
• Lounge areas, media rooms or reading nooks that need a mix of seating and reclining options
• Interiors styled in modern, contemporary or transitional designs preferring dark, neutral upholstery

When it may not be suitable

This sofa may not be suitable for very large families or households that regularly require seating for more than three adults, since the seating width is compact at 160 cm. It may also be less suitable for environments that demand heavy-duty commercial upholstery or frequent, rough use because velvet fabrics can show wear and require careful maintenance.

Key specifications

• Seating capacity: three persons (with chaise longue for reclining)
• Seating width: 160 cm
• Upholstery material: velvet (black)
• Configuration: three-seater with integrated chaise longue (L-shape)
• Intended use: residential living rooms, lounges and similar indoor spaces

How to use

Place the sofa on a flat, level floor in the desired room and allow clearance around the chaise longue for access and movement. Use the three-seat section for upright seating and the chaise longue for reclining, reading or watching media. Regularly fluff cushions and rotate removable seat cushions where possible to maintain an even appearance. For cleaning, follow fabric-care guidelines appropriate for velvet upholstery: vacuum with a soft brush attachment and address spills promptly with a damp cloth and gentle blotting, avoiding aggressive rubbing.

What to consider before purchase

• Measure the intended room and entryways to ensure the 160 cm sofa and chaise longue configuration will fit through doors, corridors and stairways.
• Consider the care requirements of velvet upholstery and whether the material suits your household activity level and pets.
• Decide on left- or right-facing chaise placement if the model allows configuration choices; verify orientation before ordering.
• Check the product's assembly and delivery conditions to plan for installation and positioning.

Usage recommendations

Use a low-pile protective throw or armrest covers in high-traffic areas to reduce wear; avoid direct sunlight to minimise colour fading of the black velvet and clean spills immediately following the fabric-care instructions.
