Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Fatboy Sumo Velvet Collection?
The Sumo Velvet Collection is a line of modular indoor sofas designed by Fatboy. Upholstered in ultrasoft recycled velvet (100% rPET), these sofas combine luxurious comfort, modern design, and long-lasting durability. Available in loveseat, 2-seater, 3-seater, and sectional formats, they adapt to any living space.
Is the velvet fabric durable for everyday use?
Yes. The recycled velvet fabric is engineered to resist pilling, shedding, and wear. With a Martindale score of 70,000 rubs, the fabric is suitable for intensive home use while maintaining its elegant sheen.
Can I change the configuration of my Sumo Velvet sofa?
Absolutely. The Sumo Velvet is a modular system. You can start with a loveseat or 2-seater and expand into a larger sectional by adding more modules. Rearranging the layout is easy and designed to adapt as your lifestyle changes.
Is the Sumo Velvet Collection sustainable?
Yes. The upholstery is made from 100% post-consumer recycled polyester. In addition, no glue or staples are used during assembly, which makes every part separable and replaceable. At the end of its life, the entire sofa can be dismantled and recycled.
Does the sofa feel too soft because it’s velvet?
Not at all. While the velvet is soft to the touch, the Sumo Velvet has a firm and supportive seat designed for comfort and durability, making it perfect for daily use.
How firm is the Sumo Velvet sofa?
The Sumo Velvet offers a perfect balance between softness and support. The velvet fabric feels plush and smooth to the touch, while the seat itself is designed to be firm and resilient. This ensures long-lasting comfort that doesn’t lose its shape, making it ideal for everyday lounging without feeling saggy or overly soft.
How do I clean and care for my Sumo Velvet sofa?
The Sumo Velvet is easy to maintain. Its covers can be hand washed only, and it’s important not to bleach, tumble dry, or expose the fabric to harsh sunlight, as this can cause damage or fading. For deeper cleaning, the covers may be dry cleaned using any solvent except trichloroethylene. If ironing is needed, use the lowest heat setting. With proper care, your Sumo Velvet sofa will retain its luxurious look and feel for years.
