At Danish Design Co in Singapore, we’ve seen firsthand how buying a sofa should be a thoughtful, emotional choice. After all, a sofa is not just another purchase—it’s where you relax after work, host friends, and share life’s most meaningful moments. Here are two real customer stories that reveal why choosing a sofa you truly love is far more important than chasing the deal.
The Young Couple and the Impulse Purchase
Earlier this year, a young couple visited our showroom in Singapore looking for their very first sofa. They immediately fell in love with the Eilersen Streamline—admiring its comfort, craftsmanship, and the legacy of 125 years of sofa-making behind the Eilersen name.
But they hesitated. Later, at another showroom, the husband was swayed by a sofa on heavy discount with quick availability. Convinced it was the practical choice, they made the purchase.
Regret came almost instantly. The wife realised she didn’t truly love the sofa, and the husband admitted that the “deal” had clouded their judgment. They returned to Danish Design Co, sat again on the Eilersen Streamline, and knew without doubt that this was the sofa they wanted to build their home around.
Though they couldn’t cancel the first order, they decided not to compromise. They bought the Eilersen and quickly resold the other sofa. Their experience reminded us why it’s our job to guide—not pressure—our customers, ensuring they choose a sofa they’ll cherish for years, not just for the weekend sale.
The Danish Couple Who Tried to Compromise
A few years ago, an older Danish couple visited us in Singapore. Having lived with an Eilersen sofa back in Denmark, they knew its comfort and quality well. But when faced with a 3+ month delivery wait, they opted for a BoConcept sofa instead, reasoning it would do for the short time they expected to live in Singapore.
Six months later, they returned. The compromise had left them dissatisfied, and they regretted not waiting for what they truly wanted. This time, they ordered their Eilersen and happily waited. When they eventually moved back to Denmark, their Eilersen came with them—no regrets attached.
Key Lessons for Buying the Right Sofa
Both stories underline a simple truth: choosing the right sofa is about more than deals or convenience. It’s about love, comfort, and long-term satisfaction.
When buying a sofa in Singapore, consider these points:
- Don’t be swayed by discounts if you don’t truly love the sofa.
- Think long term—a quality sofa can last decades.
- Sit, feel, and imagine it in your home before committing.
- Remember: a sofa is where you spend more waking hours than almost any other piece of furniture.

The Takeaway: Buy With Your Heart, Not Just the Deal
Impulse purchases and compromises almost always lead to regret. Instead, choose a sofa that feels right, looks right, and will bring you comfort for years to come. At Danish Design Co in Singapore, we believe the perfect sofa is the one you love from the start—because when you buy with your heart, you’ll never look back.
