  • Assembling the L-shape Hyllie beige version is here - • IKEA Friheten L-shape ...
    Let's set up a IKEA Friheten Sofa, in this case black leatherette fabric version, in time lapse and see how it looks. It's doable by one person but much faster with two sharing the work for sure.

    1) Can this be moved easily within the living room or between rooms?
    2) can this be moved while changing the apartment?
    3) any cons you have experienced untill now of using ?

    • @CluelessDad
      @CluelessDad  3 роки тому +3

      thanks for the questions -
      1) not easily, its not that light, and pretty big, so you'd need wide doors to get it from room to room without having to have multiple people lift it up.
      2) yes, we moved this one from our old office to our new office. I believe the movers put it on a board with roller wheels and then tipped it up on its end to get it through the door ways and into the elevator. so in other words - yes professional movers can handle it easily.
      3) For this particular sofa, no but we never used it as a bed. as a sofa its held up fine. I have the L-shaped cloth version for my home now (upcoming video....) and that one is also fine, but I don't like how they cheaped out on fabric on the cushions (there's a panel on the back of each cushion that you can't see when its put in place, that isn't the same fabric.... )

    I just bought this couch and am trying to assemble it by myself. I've got everything together except I cannot figure out how to get the arms to lock into place. It's like something is blocking it from going flush enough against the couch to slide into place. How did you get them on so easily?

    • @CluelessDad
      @CluelessDad  5 років тому +6

      Nick Harville if I recall you do have to push down kind of hard. And there’s no click to tell you it’s in place.
      Try switching sides? Maybe it matters which side you put it on?

    • @johnzadock1119
      @johnzadock1119 4 роки тому +1

      Yea same problem here. The screw heads protrude and block it from sliding. Plus you skipped the Allihn wrench thing. They have the most bizzare thing were the allihn locks into a bracket.

    I just bought and put this sofa together. I am under the impression that the seat is tilted. Have you experienced it too? When I sit on it I feel the back of the seat goes down, and thus my knees are higher than my butt. I am wondering if this is by design or if it goes away with time.

    • @CluelessDad
      @CluelessDad  3 роки тому

      hmm, no i haven't experienced this on this sofa or a second one (the L-shaped type) that I also assembled. both are pretty flat.
      double check that you tightened everything well?

    Hi, I would like to know how long have you had this sofa and the bomstad material is still in good condition? Has it peel or tear? Do you recomend this faux leather or the fabric version instead?

    • @CluelessDad
      @CluelessDad  3 роки тому

      hi, we've had this one for about 2 years now. it has held up well but we don't sit on it that much (its used in a office waiting area).
      I've had the fabric one (Hyllie beige one), and that is nice too. holds up well (we use it at home and have kids jumping on it all the time). I think the biggest positive of the bomstad is wiping away spills....

      the dimensions of the boxes should be on the IKEA website. If I recall its shorter slightly, since the arm rests are part of the over all width of the sofa, but not attached in the box of course.

    Any chance you could avoid using the side frames of this sofa? I see it's 90 inches long but without the sides, it'd be a perfect 80 for me (or 85 if I keep the shorter side). I'm thinking drill new holes in the back frame and edges of the chaise to screw in the legs...thoughts?

    • @CluelessDad
      @CluelessDad  3 роки тому +1

      I think you'd basically end up having to remake the side pieces but thinner.... so not an easy feat, especially if you want it to still be able to fold flat....
