If your Ektorp corner sofa has been part of your home for years, you probably know exactly why it is so difficult to replace. It is spacious, comfortable and made for everything from quiet evenings to family gatherings. But while the sofa itself may still have plenty of life left, its original cover can eventually become faded, worn or simply out of step with your current interior.
We have good news: a tailor-made IKEA Ektorp sofa cover for the four-seat corner model is now available at Covereo. You can finally refresh this much-loved sofa without replacing the furniture you already enjoy. Explore the available fabrics and colours and see how different your Ektorp could look.
A comfortable classic worth keeping
The Ektorp corner sofa has a distinctive character. Its generous proportions, soft cushions and rounded armrests create the relaxed, welcoming look that has made the series so popular. It is a sofa designed to be lived on, not just admired from a distance.
That is also why a worn cover should not mean the end of the sofa. A new Ektorp couch cover can extend its life and give the whole room a fresh direction. It is a practical way to update your interior while keeping a piece of furniture that is still comfortable, functional and familiar.
Created specifically for the four-seat corner model
A universal stretch cover may hide the old upholstery, but it often hides the shape of the sofa too. Our Ektorp slipcover is designed specifically for the four-seat corner model, following its original lines and proportions. The tailored fit and piping preserve the classic Ektorp appearance, so the result looks more like upholstery than a loose cover placed over the sofa.
The complete set consists of 12 individual pieces:
- one cover for the main frame;
- six covers for the back cushions;
- five covers for the seat cushions.
The cover fits both left- and right-hand arrangements. However, it is not suitable for the corner sofa-bed version.
Before ordering, check that your sofa measures approximately 243 × 243 cm and compare its shape with the product photographs. This simple step will help you confirm that you have the correct Ektorp model.

One sofa, many possible styles
Because a corner sofa occupies such a large part of the room, changing its colour or texture can transform the entire interior. The right Ektorp sofa slipcover does much more than conceal signs of wear—it can make your living room feel lighter, warmer, calmer or more expressive.
Natural beige and textured woven fabrics work beautifully in modern farmhouse and English country interiors. Soft greys and muted blues create a relaxed Hamptons-inspired look, while olive green, navy or deep burgundy can give the room more depth and personality. Velvet introduces a refined finish, whereas a herringbone fabric adds subtle pattern while keeping the sofa timeless.
You do not need to redecorate the entire room. Sometimes a new sofa colour, a few cushions and a coordinating throw are enough to create a completely different atmosphere.
Designed for real, everyday homes
A sofa should be able to handle everyday life. Children climb on it, pets curl up on the cushions, drinks are occasionally spilled and the whole family gathers there at the end of the day. That is why our Ektorp slipcovers are available in durable fabrics created with regular use in mind.
The separate covers can be removed for cleaning, making the sofa easier to maintain than furniture with permanently fixed upholstery. Depending on the collection, you can also choose practical stain-resistant and pet-friendly options.
If you are unsure about the colour or texture, consider ordering fabric samples first. Screens can display shades differently, while a physical sample allows you to see and touch the material in your own home and compare it with your walls, flooring and existing accessories.
Made to order for your Ektorp
Every cover is made to order in the European Union. The usual production time is one to three weeks, and each order is protected by our Fit Guarantee. If the fit is not right, we will remake the cover or provide a refund.
Keeping a sofa you already love can be both a practical and rewarding choice. Instead of looking for a replacement, you can give your Ektorp a new colour, texture and personality—and let it become part of the next chapter of your home.
