For any of you who have been considering purchasing the EKTORP sofa, I wanted to let you know about a one-day sale in honor of IKEA opening their 45th store in the US. (The newest store is in Indianapolis.) This Wednesday, Oct. 11th, the EKTORP sofa frame will be $100 off both in-stores and online.

I can tell you after owning and living hard on our EKTORP sofas for nearly two years, I would definitely recommend. I can attest to both the sturdiness of the frame and the comfort. They’ve really been perfect for this phase of our family’s life. I will confess to not washing the slipcovers nearly as often as I should. I’m thinking of investing in another set soon, which is really the beauty of a slipcovered sofa.

Thank you! I am debating between Ektorp and Kivik. Have you heard anything about Kivik sofa- how it performs and style wise ? We recently purchased two Ektorp chairs w white slip covers and we like the look but seems that the cushions may be worn out soon as they are stuffed w polyester fiber.
My 20 year old sofa (not an Ektorp) started to get saggy and we saved it by going to the local upholstery shop and having them cut new high density cushions for the seats. It’s still going strong and I kept it out of the landfill.
