IKEA SÖDERHAMN sofa instructions

To remove the armrests from the SÖDERHAMN sofa:

1. Locate the screws that attach the armrests to the sofa frame. There should be 2-3 screws on the underside of each armrest.

2. Using a screwdriver, unscrew and remove the screws securing the armrest.

3. Gently lift the armrest up and off the sofa frame. The armrest should detach easily once the screws are removed.

4. Repeat this process for the other armrest if you want to remove both.

Once the armrests are removed, you can reattach them later if desired by aligning the armrest with the frame and screwing it back into place

The back cushions on the SÖDERHAMN sofa are not meant to be permanently attached. They are designed as loose cushions that can be rearranged and repositioned as needed. To keep them in place, you can try the following:

1. Ensure the cushions are properly placed on the sofa's backrest. Make sure they are centered and not hanging off the sides.

2. You can use velcro strips or small non-slip pads between the cushions and the backrest to help grip them in place.

3. Fluff and rearrange the cushions regularly to maintain their shape and prevent them from sliding around.

4. Avoid excessive plumping or punching of the cushions, as this can cause them to become misshapen and more prone to shifting.

If the cushions continue to be problematic, you may want to consider using a throw or blanket draped over the backrest to help keep the cushions in place

The armrests on the SÖDERHAMN Sofa are removable, not fixed. According to the product description, "You can choose to use the sofa with or without armrests, depending on the expression you want to create." This means you have the flexibility to remove the armrests if desired. Additionally, if the armrests become worn or damaged over time, it is possible to swap them out for new ones. The modular design of the SÖDERHAMN Sofa allows you to customize the components as needed
