Interestingly, the Farlov white covers actually do have some linen in them. The Gronlid / Harlanda covers are made of smooth, 100% cotton, which feels and looks expensive–almost like linen, while the white Farlov cover is more textured, as you can see in this photo: I would have loved it if IKEA offered the same slip covers as their Gronlid (now called Harlanda) sectional, which we also own (and love) and which is currently the focal point of our basement family room.

Also, I recently noticed (in late August 2022) that the Farlov loveseat was available for online purchase and delivery in the Flodafors Gray option.

There are a few things to consider before making this purchase, so I hope this post answers all your questions about these pieces. I actually thought about putting this post together a year ago, but I’ve learned a lot about these pieces since then, so I’m glad I waited. So I’ll do my best to cover everything you might want to know. I just remember searching online for an IKEA Farlov review before we purchased our set and discovering there were very few reviews of both the sofa and chairs. So today I’m sharing my Ikea Farlov review, including why I decided to go with the Farlov line, things you should know before purchasing, pros and cons, and everything in between!īy the way, this post isn’t sponsored in any way.
