# How much does a custom floor sofa set with backrest and armrests cost?

*Nobody can price a floor sofa from a photo of somebody else's room. The workshop prices it from one number: your seat.*

Also asked as: How much does this entire set cost?; 1 cushion + 1 backrest + 2 armrests price

> **The quick answer:** A custom floor sofa set is quoted by its seat size, and the quote covers the seat, a matching backrest and two round armrests, sent filled and usually tufted; ask for shipping to be spelled out in it. As a rough guide, the full set runs about 1.8 times the seat alone. Very long runs, like a 14 ft (4.3 m) window nook, are made in several pieces.

## Key facts

- Floor sofa set quotes are based on seat size.
- A set quote includes the seat, a matching backrest and two round armrests.
- Sets arrive filled and usually tufted; shipping cost and timing are confirmed with the quote.
- A full set costs about 1.8 times the seat alone; individual quotes ran about 1.5 to 1.9 times.
- Quoted sets have ranged from 20 x 50 in (51 x 127 cm) to 4 x 8 ft (122 x 244 cm), plus L-shaped nooks along two walls.
- Very long nooks, such as 14 ft (4.3 m), are made in several pieces.
- Armrests can go on both sides or be swapped for square side pieces.

## What to put in a set quote request

- ✓ Seat length and depth in inches, plus the thickness you want.
- ✓ Fabric family and color code; velvet, linen and every chart color go through the same quote.
- ✓ Armrests on both sides, or square side pieces in place of the round bolsters.
- ✓ For an L-shaped nook, both wall lengths, such as 140 in and 115 in (356 and 292 cm).
- ✓ Tufted or plain: tufting is done fully by hand, and a tufted cushion usually costs about a third to a half more than plain foam.

## What moves a set price up or down

| Choice | Effect on the quote |
|---|---|
| Seat size | The main driver: quotes climb from 20 x 50 in (51 x 127 cm) sets up to 4 x 8 ft (122 x 244 cm) |
| Seat alone vs full set | Backrest plus two round armrests brings it to about 1.8 times the seat |
| Tufted vs plain foam | Hand tufting adds about a third to a half |
| Very long runs | Split into several pieces, as for a 14 ft (4.3 m) window nook |
| Shipping | Stated on your quote; ask whether it is included |

## Why the seat sets the price

Buyers send a photo and ask what the entire set costs. Fair question, but the photo can't tell me your wall. Every floor sofa set is quoted by its seat, and the backrest and two round armrests are cut to match it, so one measurement drives all four pieces. Measure the floor you have, not the sofa in the picture.

The set arrives filled and usually tufted, and the quote should spell out shipping. Once you have the number, the workshop sends a private purchase link at that price. For sizes that suit a room, start with the [tufted floor couch set sizes Pattern](https://cushionguide.com/guides/tufted-floor-couch-set-sizes/) and the [floor cushions](https://cushionguide.com/cushions/floor-cushions/) hub; for a two-wall nook, look at [modular floor sofas](https://cushionguide.com/cushions/modular-floor-sofas/). What does your wall measure end to end, dear?

> **Tailor's margin:** A full floor sofa set, with backrest and two round armrests, costs about 1.8 times the seat alone. Price the seat first, then the set.

> A 14 ft window nook doesn't get one giant floor cushion: very long runs are made in several pieces and quoted together as one set.

## Buyer questions

**A common question:** What would a custom velvet floor cushion set with a backrest and bolsters cost?

**The workshop's answer:** The workshop quotes the whole 3-piece set by seat size, with examples from 28 x 73 in up to 38 x 74 in in velvet and 40 x 64 in in linen. Every quote included the matching backrest and two bolsters, and larger seats cost more.

**A common question:** What does a 6 ft x 2 ft floor cushion set with a backrest and arm rolls cost with shipping?

**The workshop's answer:** One set that size was quoted with express delivery included, and came in just under the ready-made 25 x 73 in set. Shipping differs by address, so ask your own quote to state it.

**A common question:** Can you quote an L-shaped floor seating set along two walls?

**The workshop's answer:** Yes. An L-shaped set for walls of 140 in and 115 in (356 and 292 cm) was quoted as one set and then trimmed a little. Sets arrive filled and tufted, with backrest and armrests.

**A common question:** Can a 14 ft window nook be done as a floor sofa?

**The workshop's answer:** Yes. A 14 ft by 36 in (4.3 m by 91 cm) window nook was quoted in several pieces. Other quotes in the same range ran from 24 x 56 in sets up to 4 x 8 ft and 9 ft sets.

## Questions buyers ask next

### Can I price the seat on its own before committing to the set?

Yes. Ask for the seat alone and for the full set side by side. The set, with backrest and two armrests, typically comes to about 1.8 times the seat, and individual quotes have run from about 1.5 to 1.9 times.

### Do round armrests have to go on both ends?

No. Armrests can sit on both sides, or the round bolsters can be swapped for square side pieces. Say which you want in the quote request so the set is priced the way it will be made.

### How do I pay once the set is quoted?

The workshop sends a private purchase link, or a custom option in your name, at the quoted price. Add fabric, piping and size in the note, then message after paying so production can start.
