Will be getting my sofa from Hatch soon.. madewith new material called aquaclean where most stains can be remived by water only.

Will post a review...fingers crossed..

Review

OK..receieved the sofa 2 months. Nothing much to complain..the sofa came as ordered. The material is pretty good so far, kids had spliied milk and son on it...just need to wipe with water and the stain goes off.

I would rate Hatch as 3 and half stars..juts above average. Nothing special or extraordinary service provided.

Where you see this brand? If you google cannot find the co website. Better be careful coz how you justify they are giving real full leather.
Survey a few shop before decide. There is always better deal outside than home fair.

They do not have any retail shops, only selling at fairs. I also like their sofa, one of the most comfy sofa I ever tested, almost wanted to book a set too but held back by my wife due to budget issue. Till now me still thinking of their recliners but too over my budget la. But although they do not hv any physical shops, the most you will lose is rm100 to rm200 of deposits. Not sure about now, but the last time I enquire about 3 months ago, they only take rm100 of deposit, balance you can pay by credit card when they delivers to you. They will also drop by your place to do a final measurement and will give suggestion according to your place setup and design. A different kind of selling concept, the most you lose is your deposits. Worth the risk if you can afford the price and like their sofa

Oh ya, I must add, they claim to be using only full leather but to me i really cannot tell if it is genuine or not. This is another risk I must say.

So financial strong? Need only RM100-200 deposit till delivery.
Big co also required 30%-40% deposits.
There are time, fair sample and actual delivery do feel and look different.
Can share any photo here? Tempting offer yeah.

If your delivery time still far away, can save a bit every month and more if got bonus time.
No harm if really no big deposits required.
Scare only suddenly they ask higher deposits when near delivery or you won't get the delivery.
Give some sweetener before lock you in.

Ask a few seller for tips on identifying the real full leather.
Compare against those in Lorenzo and etc.

thats the problem, nowdays synthetic leather looks so real, I was told even those in the trade also cant really tell off hand. If you hv the $$, go for auto instead of manual as it is easier to control at which point you want it to stop. Usually for a 3 seater recliners, only the left and right seat can be reclined but theirs, they can make every seat to be able to recline, so you can have as many seater in a row and all reclinable

if the depth of your sofa seat or it's frame is not deep enough, having a 3 seater all reclined tend to flip backwards
hence practice for 3 seater is having the middle unable to recline act as an anchor

do agree on the auto vs manual, auto can stop whichever point u wish to stop, & manual have issue kicking it back in after extended.

If u plan go for auto, think of your wiring plans 1st , i messed this up , end up need to find extra large carpet to cover wire along it to power the motors

Help Needed Sifu... Pls. advise ..Worth or not?

Wanted to grab sofa but I noob..

I saw Lorenzo doing sales.. I went to their shop - 3 shops together 3 storey high..I think so big no close shop or cheat ppl right?

2 + 3 seater for RM4575...The one with tiger in broucher..

half leather top is Bovine leather means cowhide leather right?

meranti hard wood means this is better quality wood can last longer? Can sustain termite bite?

I did not take the last 1 seater or else the price will be RM6020.. around RM1400 for additional 1 seater not worth.. I may as well top up a bit get a 1 seater rocking chair right?

I go online check again Lorenzo which design series and technical specs just to be 100% sure....

My biggest issue with Lorenzo is I saw their receipt mention pay 30% deposit but the sales person asking me pay 50%... Can ar?

warranty list black n white on Sales Order - New Set, warranty on stiches and wooden frame 3 yrs.. Is this all I need? Anything to add? I saw at Lorenzo website they do not warranty against leather surface, in case your dogs or cats scratch on them sad.gif

My other question will be if 2+3 seater above I put one straight line by the wall ok or not? I don't want to put L shape to save space smile.gif

I do the conversion around 11.6ft, my living room hall 12.5 ft...


The design ok or not? To me look solid... No recliner, strong wooden leg..

What does it means by rounded structure is formed with a mix of high quality foam and natural fibers? The material long lasting or not?

The sales girl tell me pocketed spring? Is this good?

I am shopping for an L-shape sofa with recliner. Got such design?

Any upholstery expert here can give tips on how to shop for sofa? There are so many brands that are unheard of in exhibition. How to know if they are reliable and how to assess workmanship? Which brand is reliable?

I know there are many factories that make good quality furniture in Malaysia. I have been to a furniture factory in Muar before, but they say they don't do retail. Many of them only do export. How to buy export quality made in Malaysia furniture?

Thanks.
