Made.com Sofas Resale Value

Made.com sofas: price by condition

Seller-declared grades, sterling with an approximate US dollar equivalent at £1 ≈ $1.33 (July 2026). What each grade means.

What holds its value across Made.com

• Design-led pieces in good condition, which is what the brand was bought for and what buyers still search by name
• Velvet and bouclé upholstery in the distinctive colours the brand used, which are hard to find elsewhere at any price
• Pieces with all original fixings and assembly instructions, which matter more than usual because replacements cannot be ordered
• Marble and solid-wood topped tables, which are the materials that survive rather than the veneered ones

What pulls Made.com resale value down

• Damaged or stained upholstery, since replacement covers can no longer be ordered from anyone
• Missing fixings and bolts, which on flat-pack furniture from a closed company means sourcing generic substitutes
• Upholstery with no fire-safety label, which UK buyers check for under the cushions
• Chipped veneer and foil edges, which are the usual failure on the lower-priced ranges and cannot be repaired invisibly

Identifying and dating yours

1. Say in the listing that parts and covers are no longer available, because a buyer will find out and it is better coming from you
2. Photograph the label under the seat, which carries the range name and the fire safety information
3. Count and photograph every fixing and the instructions if you still have them, since they cannot be replaced

What lifts any sofa, whatever the label

Sofas are bulky and hard to move, so the practical question of how the buyer gets it home affects the price as much as its condition.

• Solid hardwood frames from established makers
• Removable, washable covers
• Mid-century and design pieces with a following
• Firm cushions that still hold their shape

And what pulls one down

• Sagging seat cushions and a frame that creaks under weight
• Pet hair, odours or visible staining
• Very large corner units that fit few rooms
• Flat-pack frames that will not survive another move

Working out what yours is worth

1. Measure width, depth and height, and check it through your own doorway
2. Photograph each cushion and the frame underneath
3. Search sold listings for the same maker and model

What to state in the listing

• Width, depth and height in centimetres, plus the diagonal for doorway clearance
• Number of seats, and whether it is a sofa bed, recliner or corner unit
• Material: fabric, leather, faux leather, velvet
• Whether the legs unscrew and whether the fire-safety label is attached

Size, type and material: “3 Seater Grey Fabric Sofa, 200cm Wide”. Width in centimetres belongs in the title because buyers are measuring a specific wall. Say if it is a sofa bed, a recliner or a corner unit — those are separate searches with different buyers.

Preparing and photographing it

1. Measure width, depth and height, and measure the sofa’s diagonal too, since that is what determines whether it fits through a doorway.
2. Vacuum thoroughly including under the cushions, and clean any marks you reasonably can.
3. Check the frame by sitting at each end, and look for a fire-safety label, which UK buyers and many buyers elsewhere expect to see.

1. The whole sofa straight on, in daylight, in the room
2. A three-quarter angle showing depth and the arms
3. The cushions lifted, showing the base and the underside condition
4. The fire-safety label, plus any stain, tear or worn patch

When it sells best, and handing it over

Sells year round, with lifts around moving season in spring and summer and in the new year. Neutral colours sell considerably faster than bold ones.

Collection only, and be clear in the listing about which floor it is on and whether you can help carry it. Setting that expectation up front prevents the most common cause of a failed sofa handover.

What buyers ask

Can I still get replacement covers or parts?

No. The company ceased trading in 2022, so spares, covers and warranty support are gone. Sell the piece as it stands and say so plainly.

Does that make the furniture worth less?

It makes damaged pieces worth much less, because they cannot be put right. Undamaged pieces still sell well — the designs are what people wanted in the first place.

How much is a Made.com sofa worth?

Roughly £54 to £360 depending on condition, against £60 to £400 for sofas generally. The identification points above are what move a listing to the top of that range.

What the fees would take elsewhere

At the mid-range £207 for a Made.com sofa, against what the commission marketplaces would deduct:

Seller-side rates verified 26 Jul 2026, percentages only — the per-order and processing charges those platforms add are excluded, so the real gap is wider.
