# What's in the covers-only set, and what size are the covers?

*Four zippered covers in two shapes, enough to dress one floor sofa from the seat to the arms.*

Also asked as: How many pieces are included?; What size are the covers only?

> **The quick answer:** A covers-only set dresses one single floor sofa with four zippered covers: two seat covers of 78 x 39 x 6.5 in (200 x 100 x 17 cm) and two L-shaped backrest covers of 39 x 39 x 15 in (100 x 100 x 39 cm), arms included. An L-shaped sofa needs two sets. Pillowcases come as a gift; metal bars are not included.

## A new coat for a sofa you already love

Covers are how a floor sofa changes its mind. The foam stays, the old coat comes off along its zipper, and the new one can be a different color from the first; the replacement option dresses the whole couch, arms included. The sofa in the photograph wears cream with bright cobalt at the ends, and that is the whole idea: two shapes of cover, two chances to choose a color.

Plan around one detail. The pillowcases arrive as a gift and may not match the set, so let one color speak and the others listen, and treat those cases as the accent.

The [floor sofa replacement covers Pattern](https://cushionguide.com/guides/floor-sofa-replacement-covers/) walks through fit, the [modular floor sofa hub](https://cushionguide.com/cushions/modular-floor-sofas/) shows the shapes, and the wider [cushion covers](https://cushionguide.com/cushions/cushion-covers/) shelf holds the rest.

> **Tailor's margin:** An L-shaped floor sofa takes two covers-only sets: four 78 x 39 in seat covers and four 39 x 39 in L-backrest covers.

> One floor sofa covers set is four zippered pieces: two seat covers at 78 x 39 x 6.5 in and two L-backrest covers at 39 x 39 x 15 in.

## Buyer questions

**A common question:** Can I buy just the covers, and how many pieces come in the set?

**The workshop's answer:** Yes. The covers-only set fits one single sofa: 2 seat covers of 78 x 39 x 6.5 in (200 x 100 x 17 cm) and 2 L-shaped backrest covers of 39 x 39 x 15 in (100 x 100 x 39 cm). For an L-shaped sofa, buy two sets. The L-shaped backrest covers can be bought on their own, and the workshop confirms shipping cost with your order.

**A common question:** What exactly arrives in the covers-only set for the floor sofa?

**The workshop's answer:** Four zippered covers: two for the bottom mattresses and two for the L-shaped backrests, in the sizes on the listing. Pillowcases are added as a gift, though their color may differ. Metal bars are not included and cost extra.

**A common question:** Does the replacement cover add-on dress the whole couch, arms included?

**The workshop's answer:** Yes. It covers the whole couch including the arms, and you can choose a different color for it.

**A common question:** What are the replacement cover dimensions, and can they be custom?

**The workshop's answer:** Two seat covers of 78 x 39 x 6.5 in (200 x 100 x 17 cm) and two L-shaped backrest covers of 39 x 39 x 15 in (100 x 100 x 39 cm). Covers can also be made to custom sizes.

## Questions buyers ask next

### Can I replace a single cover instead of the whole set?

Yes. Single covers, whether base, backrest, corner, armrest or ottoman, are sold on their own in your original color, so a broken zipper or a tear doesn't mean buying a full set. Replacement covers come in standard sizes.

### Can you make covers for a modular sofa from another brand?

Yes. Write the exact size of each piece in the personalization box, for example an 80 x 39 x 7 in (203 x 100 x 18 cm) base. Custom covers take slightly longer, and the workshop may ask for a photo of the sofa.

### Do the covers go in the washing machine?

Yes. Every cover has a hidden zipper, so it comes off completely and machine washes at 86°F (30°C) or lower. Only tufted cushions are sewn closed and can't be removed.
