U Shape Sofa Builder ,
Nabru’s design your own U shape sofa tool allows you to create a custom built U shape sofa which has been designed specifically with your home in mind. Using our U shape sofa builder you can create U shape sofas from the very small right up to big U shape sofas that measure 5 meters by 5 meters by 5 meters, big enough even for the very biggest of rooms.
We’ve supplied our U shape sofas to every conceivable location and room in the house but in general we find that most customers are purchasing for their lounge or living room, loft and attic rooms, basements and home cinema or AV rooms.
Our tailor made U shape sofa tool takes you step by step through the process of building your U shape sofa, first of all you select the type of arms that you wish (from 7 different choices) and then you select the type of seats that you wish to purchase and the number of seats that you wish to purchase on each leg of the U sofa. Typically by careful varying the combination of arms and seats on your wraparound u shaped sofa you can get to measurements that are within 10cm or so of your room size.
Finally, once you have decided on the optimal dimensions for your U shape sofa you can customise it by choosing from piping detail, any one of the 75+ fabrics that we stock, whether to include storage trays, steel or wooden feet, standard or soft seating.
Once you’ve designed your dream U shape sofa all that’s left is for you to buy it and enjoy it!

U Shape Sofa Buying Guide
Have you ever dreamed of having a large U shaped sofa for your lounge, basement or home
entertainment room? Maybe you've been put off by the high price tag for many U shaped
sofas or you're concerned that you won't be able to fit one in? This detailed buying
guide answers all the questions that you may have so that you can find the U shaped
sofa that's perfect for you...
Why buy a U Shaped sofa?
If you are looking to purchase a U shape sofa then as a general rule you need to have a large living
space or room to fit the sofa, that's because by their very nature U shaped sofas tend to be very large,
that aside there are very many good reasons to purchase a U shape sofa.
For example you might have a large family or regularly entertain lots of guests, if that's the case then you'll have no problem seating everybody in comfort round your large U shape sofa.
Another popular reason for purchasing a U shaped sofa is to go into a large basement room or loft room, most often our clients have developed these large additional spaces in their homes as home entertainment or home cinema spaces, and a large U shaped sofa works perfectly in a home entertainment room.
And finally, we've always found that a corner seat tends to be the most popular seat on any corner sofa, so another great reason to buy a U shape sofa is so that you can have two corner seats, his and hers so to speak!
Design your own U Shaped sofa
If you do some browsing round the internet and shops you'll find that there's a common problem when it
comes to shopping for a U shape sofa, which is that most retailers have a one size fits all approach,
this tends to restrict your choice quite a lot and often leads to a "make do" approach where you end
up buying a U shape sofa which is either a little too small or a little too large for your room.
There is however an alternative, yes you might have guessed it! We'd recommend using the nabru design your own u shaped sofa tool to create a sofa which is perfectly proportioned for your room, amount of space and most importantly your lifestyle.
We'll discuss how this works and the many options that you have in the following sections of this guide.
Top Tip:
Before getting started with our design your own sofa tool, we advise
you to measure up your room first to see what size U-Shape sofa will fit.
Small U Shaped sofa
Now we've already talked about how U shaped sofas are really quite large by their very nature, however,
as we have a design your own U Shape sofa tool there's quite a lot of flexibility in the size that you
can make your U shape sofa, for example the smallest U shaped sofa that we offer is 154 x 261 x 154cm,
there's also the option to add an extension seat to one of our corner sofas, you can do this using our
design your own corner sofa tool and create a small wraparound corner sofa that way.
Smallest U Shaped Sofa
This is the smallest U Shape sofa that we offer, it might work well if you have a long
narrow living space and you and your partner want to be able to put your feet up and lie
back at the end of a long hard day, there's also the added benefit that with this configuration
you will both get a corner seat which we always find are everybody's favourite seat in the house!
Wraparound Corner Sofa
Both our u shape sofa builder tool and corner sofa builder tool have an
extension seat tool which allows you to turn most of the seats on the sofas into extended seats, if you extend the
outside seat on a corner sofa you can turn it into a wraparound sofa.
See what you can design
Top Tip:
A popular use for the extension seat is the availability to move this and swap with other seats
on the sofa, for example you can move the above to the left side of the sofa or even in the middle.
Large U Shaped sofa
This is where U shaped sofas really come into their own, you can go to town with our u shape sofa
builder tool and create a sofa that's as big as 5.5 meters in any direction, with a sofa that is
this big we'd recommend that you go for the larger seat sizes that we offer as these are more likely
to complement the scale of the sofa.
Of course you don't have to stop there, with our sofa builder tools it's possible to create U shape
sofas that are even bigger, here's how:
Two complimentary corner sofas
You could order two reciprocal corner sofas, one with an armless end on the left and the other with an armless end on the right and butt the armless ends up against each other in the middle, using this technique you can create a U shaped sofa which has a centre section that measures up to 9 meters across with the added bonus that you have a little more flexibility on how you organise your room as you could use the sofas as two separate corner sofas or as one big U shaped sofa.
Armless right corner sofa
Armless left corner sofa

Even bigger?
You could make a U shaped sofa that's even bigger by using a combination of corner sofas and armless sofas, theoretically there is no limit to how big your U shaped sofa could be using this technique.
U Shaped sofa bed
Wouldn't it be great to add a sofa bed to your U shaped sofa as well so you've got extra sleeping space
for guests that come over to stay? Well if your answer is yes we have great news for you as you can
incorporate a sofa bed into your U sofa, we offer 3 different sizes depending on the size and shape
of the sofa that you have selected, these are a single bed, a double bed and a large double bed.
A lot of people are concerned that adding a sofa bed to their sofa will compromise the seating comfort of their sofa, that's not the case with a nabru sofa, our unique design ensures that the seats over a sofa bed are just as comfortable as the rest of the seats on your sofa.
To deploy the sofa bed just takes a few minutes, all you have to do is lift off the seats that the sofa bed is stowed beneath and then pull out the sofa bed mechanism, the latter is a threefold metal action sofa bed mechanism with a sprung base and foam mattress.
Depending on the size and configuration of the U shaped sofa that you are planning on purchasing you can choose whether to have the sofa bed beneath any of the left seats, centre seats or right seats of your wraparound sofa, however, one restriction is that you can only have one sofa bed for one U sofa! The restrictions and permissible options on where the sofa bed can be are all built into the u shape sofa bed builder tool.
Will it fit?
Of course a big concern for any purchaser of a large U shaped sofa is going to be getting it into
the room where you want it to go, this issue is often compounded for U shaped sofas by the fact
that they are often purchased as home cinema sofas to go into inaccessible rooms in the house
such as an attic or a basement.
The great news here is that nabru specialise in making and selling sofas for awkward access and difficult to access spaces, all of our sofas, even our very large U shaped sofas are sold as self assembly sofa kits which are carried into the home in pieces and then assembled in situ. In this regard, a question that we often get asked is what's the biggest individual part of a nabru sofa? No doubt by customers who think that the biggest component is the limiting factor, but you shouldn't concern yourself with that, we've designed our sofas so that no one individual part will cause access restrictions, the general rule is that if you can get into the room then you'll get one of our sofas into the room, no matter how big it is, even loft hatches are not a problem.
What you do need to concern yourself with is making sure that you have enough space in the room where you plan that the sofa should go, in this regard we'd recommend that you take a look at the handy tips and advice in our 'how to measure your home for a sofa' guide.

Customise Your U Sofa
Once you've decided on the perfect size for your U Sofa there are plenty of ways that you can customise it
using the options on our customise and buy page, some examples of the options that are available to you are:
75+ different fabrics - you can choose to have your U sofa made in any one of 75+ different fabric textures and colours and still have it delivered the next working day.
Wood or steel feet - you can choose between solid hardwood feet or brushed steel feet options.
Seating type - a choice between standard and soft seating, the latter has an elasticised webbing base.
Piping detail - the outside edges of the cushions can be piped by wrapping some of the material in piping cord and stitching it into the seams of the cushions, this creates some attractive detailing to the edges of the cushions.
Two Tone fabrics - you have the option to combine two different fabrics on the sofa at the same time, one for the seat and back cushions and a second contrasting fabric for the arms and frame of the sofa, this can result in a striking appearance for your U sofa.
