Why You Need to Get this Custom Modular Sofa

I’ve been meaning to update my furniture since I’m home most of the time. I feel like my old couch is too big for such a small space. I have been looking at sectional sofas or something with a chaise lounge but I was afraid the pieces were going to be too big.

Finding the perfect sofa is always a challenge, kind of like car shopping. I have been looking all over and couldn’t find anything in the price range I wanted or the style I wanted. Then I came across Allform. It is a modern furniture company that puts together stylish and sleek pieces that are very comfortable. The style is similar to Mid-Century Modern but without the hefty prices.

Allform produces modular sofas and some are even chaise sectionals. It has several options of deep vibrant colors using some environmentally friendly fabrics. Basically, you can customize your very own sofa in three easy steps:

  1. Choose the style you want: Loveseat, sofa, sectional, or even an armchair.
  2. Choose the fabric. You have seven fabric colors to choose from and two leather colors.
  3. Choose the leg color: Natural wood, walnut, or espresso.

That’s it! Of course, you can choose to add on options like throw pillows, lumbar pillows, an ottoman, and even various sized weighted blankets.

If you really have a large space, Allform offers modules all the way up to eight seats and various layouts like a double chaise or corner sectionals. The thing you would need to worry about is how many coffee tables you will need for your new seating arrangements.

The modular sofas use performance fabrics that are scratch-, and stain-resistant. Allform uses high-grade foam and fiber that are designed for a balance of cushiness and comfort. The hardwood frame is sturdily made and is kiln-dried and laminated. Allform sources its hardwoods from Sustainable Forest Initiative certified vendors. The fabric is treated with an eco-friendly stain-resistant product to protect against water, oil, and soiling. The leather tanning process uses a small amount of coloring for the richest color possible without disturbing the natural grain of the leather.

The three-seat sofa is the most popular and measures 90 inches wide by 38 inches deep by 34 inches tall and the leg height is 6 inches. To keep the sofa from sagging, the webbed Tempered Steel Flexolator Grid System uses 11-gauge helical spring coils and is all manufactured in North Carolina.

I really like the fact that Allform is committed to sustainability and eco-friendly products. Its facilities are mindful of water and energy usage, and it even converted its facility to LED lighting. Allform uses water-based glues, all of the material is 95% recycled material, and it uses 100% recycled packaging and padding.

Allform makes it super easy to change up your love seat or sofa. Say you want a sectional for the living room; all you have to do is order the module and it comes with all the hardware and the legs. The best part? You don’t need any tools to assemble the furniture! Which is great since I live in the city and don’t have any tools.

April’s best: Shows on Max that will keep you hooked
From new originals to the best shows in HBO history, these are great shows to stream on Max
Scene from Succession

HBO Max was one of the most popular streaming services in the world due to the volume and the quality of the shows and movies on the platform. You've probably noticed when you log into HBO Max that the platform has been replaced by Max. What does this mean? WarnerMedia and Discovery have merged all of their content into one convenient location. You can still enjoy all of the shows like Succession and The Sopranos that were available on HBO Max, and this new streaming service also includes the kinds of reality shows that were available on Discovery+. Essentially, the libraries of the two services have been merged.
As is the case for many young TV lovers, HBO was one of the places I checked first for great TV, and some of the shows on this list made me realize everything that TV was capable of. What's even better, though, is that Max always has another show on deck.
Whatever kind of show you're looking for, you're likely to find it on Max. From iconic dramas to some of the funniest comedies ever created, every show on this list is a must-watch, whether it's 30 years old or just came out this year. Here are the best Max shows.

My favorite type of actor is the one where I'm watching my new favorite show, and they appear on the screen, and I immediately tell my brother (who happens to be my go-to TV-watching partner), "It's that guy!" No name, no recollection of where I've seen him before. "He's in everything!" This is the best compliment someone can give an actor when they star in a new project. Sure, it's probably fun to be Tom Hanks or Denzel Washington, but those superstars almost devour the characters they play. It's sometimes a disservice to a story when the actors are so famous that they can't help but overshadow the role they're playing.

Walton Goggins is the ultimate "I know him!" TV actor of the 21st century. This man is a chameleon to the highest degree. Goggins transforms from a bitter boomer on a vacation to a transgender motorcycle mama in the blink of an eye. His talents have finally garnered him the recognition he deserves. Before he outgrows his discreet status as TV's most versatile performer, it's time to collect all of his best TV shows into one nice package. After reading this list you'll finally be able to put a name to his face when he's in another great show. These are the best Walton Goggins TV shows.

Even if you've picked a streaming service, it can be impossible to narrow down what you're really looking for. If you've run out of the best Netflix movies and Netflix Original series to watch, you'll need to find somewhere else to turn. Fortunately, Netflix is far from the only game in town. Anyone who uses Amazon Prime to get packages delivered to them quickly also has access to a library of fairly impressive shows and movies.

Amazon is a mega corporation, and you and I both know that it might not care that much about its streaming offerings. It's not it makes its money, or at least most of it. Even still, I was shocked at how many great shows you can watch on Prime, including some you might not expect.
