We've had two sofas in last 20 years, both from IKEA.
Only problem was we bought the second one and couldn't get it in the car. We'd assumed that, like old one, the frame would be a complete item with a separate cover to choice. Removed all three rear seats from Berlingo so as to fit it in. Turned out to be a flat pack and about a foot longer than sofa itself.
Eventually shoved it in stood on it's side and with front passenger seat folded down. But of course then no seat for Mrs B. Left her in cafe while I took it home and returned in my car (couldn't lift it out pf Berlingo on on my own!!)
Bit of an 'own petard' moment as we'd always laughed at folks who bought too much for their car!!
Now, even if we think we'll need all three seats out we leave on in place until we're sure it's not needed.
