2. Key Tip for Ensuring a Perfect Fit
When shopping for the right IKEA EKTORP slipcover, be sure to check the thumbnails and product descriptions carefully. One of the easiest ways to avoid mistakes when selecting between options (such as different sizes or editions) is by measuring the width of your furniture.
The key measurement is the width across the back of the sofa, from one armrest to the other. This dimension is unique for each model, so once you’ve measured the full width, you won’t need to measure any other parts of the sofa. With this simple step, you can confidently order the right EKTORP sofa cover and enjoy a perfect fit every time.
