How our Cocobella Sofas are made

by Sophie Conran 07 Aug 2024

I am very proud that our John Lewis Cocobella sofas are made by hand here in the UK. I recently went up to the workshop in Preston, Lancashire, to meet the team of wonderful people there. The workshop was founded over 50 years ago and was recently voted the UK's best upholstery manufacturer. Walking around the workshop spaces with Jamie, who heads up all the workshop operations was super interesting and a lot of fun too!

We started by seeing how the fabric is carefully laid out on a very high tech computerised cutting table.

The computer can automatically work out how to best use each piece of fabric to ensure the maximum level of usage whilst at the same time, ensuring that all the patterns will match up perfectly. In our case, this means all of our stripes align and look fabulous on each sofa. Next we visited the very skilled team that sews together all the covers so beautifully. It was truly amazing to see how perfectly they sew each and every cushion and cover.

Then we visited the frame making team and learned how each frame is made using solid birch hardwood. I was very impressed to discover that every single frame they are making for us is guaranteed for 25 years!

Our sofas have a special type of spring in the base, called a fishmouth spring. This type of spring gives the front edge of the sofa a lovely springy feeling and has the benefit of both helping you get out more easily and being more comfortable to sit in.

Next, we went to see how the frame is upholstered. Every little detail is considered extremely carefully and very skilfully done - I was amazed by how many different layers are inside the sofas

The last step was watching how the covers are fitted for the first time and the cushions going on too. Each cushion is made with a combination of feather and foam from plant based materials. It means that the amount of plumping you need to do is very reduced compared to a feather and down cushion.

It’s really amazing to see how quickly the sofa goes from being an upholstered frame to looking like a gorgeous sofa. Each one is steamed by hand and the final result is truly fabulous.

I really loved my visit and feel extremely happy to know that every one of our sofas that are made for John Lewis is put together with so much love.

Our delivery team will unwrap and assemble all Products upon delivery. Delivery to locations outside the United Kingdom mainland and Republic of Ireland mainland 7.16. We are now also able to deliver products at a location outside the United Kingdom mainland and Republic of Ireland mainland, with the exception of delicate items such as ceramics and glassware.

Products transported outside the United Kingdom mainland and Republic of Ireland mainland may be subject to customs, handling, import and/or export duties, and may require licences, clearances and other consents in order for the Products to be so transported.

Subject to the remainder of this clause 10, you have the following applicable ‘cooling off period’ during which you may cancel your order: 10.2.1. For Products from our Standard Furniture Range you have the right to amend or cancel your order up to 7 days after the original order date. Any changes to your order after 7 days will incur a 5% amendment fee per item amended. Any orders that are cancelled in full after 7 days will incur a 5% cancellation fee on the total value of your order up to the value of £500. Please note, any amendments to part of your order will reset the delivery lead time to your whole order, if applicable. 10.2.2. If you wish to return your furniture order, we offer a no quibbles return policy within 14 days of delivery. A restocking fee will be charged and deducted from your refund. The restocking fee will be £300 or 5% of the item being returned, whichever is the greater value. Please note, the original delivery fee will not be compensated. 10.2.4. For Bespoke Products, including COM or designer fabrics, you may not cancel your order once production has begun, nor after delivery. No refund is therefore possible on any bespoke products. 10.3. If you exercise your right to cancel a Product, excluding bespoke products, then (subject to the terms of this clause 10) we will refund the price of that Product you paid to us when you placed the order, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us) up to the amount of the least expensive delivery. Where possible, refunds will be made using the same means of payment as you used to purchase the relevant Products. In the case of card payments, refunds will be made to the original card of purchase. 10.4. Products must be returned to us in a saleable condition and we reserve the right to make reasonable deductions from the amount refunded to you if there are signs of wear and/or damage to the Products. All returned Products will be inspected in our warehouse and, if deemed to be damaged or sullied, we will charge you a fee to reflect the amount by which the value of the Products has been diminished. In the case of furniture, it should be noted that any marks on fabric covers, legs or any part of the furniture will be assessed and charged for at replacement value. It is therefore very important that any item of furniture you wish to return is not used and is covered with protective packaging as soon as possible. Lighting must be returned in its original packaging to avoid damage. 10.5. If you order Products and you arrange for the Products to be shipped to a location outside the United Kingdom or Republic of Ireland, clauses 10.2 and 10.5 are modified in that you still have the right to return the Products but it is your responsibility to arrange for and pay for the Products to be shipped back to the United Kingdom mainland or Republic of Ireland and stored there at your cost until the time that we have agreed to collect them. The cost of returns from countries such as the US, Canada, Mainland Europe or any other country outside the UK will be the responsibility of the buyer. We will collect the Products from any address in the United Kingdom mainland or Republic of Ireland (for example, a relative’s house or a shipping and storage facility); unfortunately, we cannot wait at a port to collect the Products directly from any vessel. 10.6. If you wish to exercise your right to cancel a Furniture Product order please email us at customerqueries@sophieconran.com 10.8. This clause 10 does not affect your statutory rights. 11. Customer Own Materials on Furniture 11.1. This clause 11 applies to any fabric (or other item) that you supply to us or which you specify and is not on our Website (‘Customer Own Material’). We refer to any Product that, at your request, we make with a Customer Own Material as a ‘Customer Own Material Product’. Customer Own Material meterage quotes may vary depending on pattern repeat in fabric. 11.2. We may refuse to use any Customer Own Material which we consider to be unsuitable. 11.3. You agree to ensure that your Customer Own Material is in all respects safe and suitable for application in the Product. 11.4. Customer Own Materials will become owned by us when we receive them; ownership in any of them which we return to you (whether unused or incorporated in the Product) will revert to you upon delivery to you. 11.5. We may cut, work on and otherwise treat and deal with your Customer Own Materials as we consider appropriate in the course of making the Product and (unless you state in writing with your order that surplus should be returned to you) we may use or dispose of excess fabric or items as we think fit. 11.6. Lead times for bespoke products will be confirmed after customer own material has been received by the manufacturer. 12. Guarantees 12.1. Subject to the remainder of this clause 11 and clause 13 (Our Liability), we provide the following guarantees (‘Guarantees’): 12.1.1. Our furniture carries a 25 years wooden frame construction guarantee against faulty workmanship and/or faulty materials. Exceptions to this are: 12.1.1.2 Cushion fillings and coverings and upholstery on our Products are guaranteed for two years from the date of delivery except that we do not provide any guarantee for fabric (or other items) supplied at your specification by yourself or a third party, nor in respect of any defect in Products caused by any defect in, failure of or unsuitability of any fabric or other items so supplied. 12.2. Our Guarantees are limited to Products sold and retained in the United Kingdom or Republic of Ireland and used solely for non-commercial purposes. 12.3. Our Guarantees do not cover fair wear and tear, neglect, abuse or misuse of your Products (including failure to follow any Product care instructions that we provide), loss or damage (including rusting and corrosion) due to unreasonable exposure to water or weather; loss or damage due to fire, smoke, explosion, lightning, sunlight, infestation by animals or boring insects, theft, accidental damage or loss or damage caused by a third party. 12.4. If you wish to make a claim under our Guarantees, please contact us by e-mail at customerqueries@sophieconran.com. 12.5. Where defective Products are covered by one of our Guarantees, we will endeavour to repair them free of charge. If a repair is not possible you will be offered a replacement and only if a suitable replacement is not available will you be offered a refund. Where possible, refunds will be made using the same means of payment as you used to purchase the relevant Products. In the case of card payments, refunds will be made to the original card of purchase. 12.6. Our Guarantees may not be assigned to a third party. 12.7. The law gives you certain statutory rights for the repair, exchange or refund of faulty products. These rights are not affected by this clause 12. 13. Fabrics 13.1. Fabric batches may vary. The majority of our fabrics are created from natural materials, and thus, unlike man made products, there can be slight variations between batches. The most common variation is that of colour – although the actual variation is often almost negligible or very slight. Some fabrics are more susceptible to this than others. 13.2. Whilst we guarantee to make all your orders from the same batch, we cannot guarantee that subsequent orders will match your original order. 13.3. Because of the nature of the materials used, any finishes that are applied to the exterior of our Products may alter the final colour and feel of the fabric. 13.4. We cannot accept any responsibility for fading or discolouration caused by exposure to direct or indirect sunlight. Sunlight affects different fabrics in different ways, but sunlight, whether direct or indirect, will nevertheless always affect fabric colour. Darker fabrics, because they have further to fall, are likely to discolour and fade more. Different fabrics, dark or light are liable to fade or discolour at different rates. 13.5. After delivery, we cannot accept any responsibility for fading or discolouration, due to exposure or contact with any chemicals sprayed nearby or applied directly. Please also note that there are certain aerosol sprays, most particularly odour neutralisers and nicotine neutralisers, which contain chemicals that can react with fabric dyes (the cans should warn against spraying close to upholstery without first covering it.. 13.6. We recommend that you dry clean all removable covers that require dry cleaning. 13.7. Blot dry any wet spillages with a clean dry cloth as soon as possible. Do not use a wet cloth or rub the fabric. 14. Our liability 14.1 Sophie Conran Shop does not look to exclude or limit liability for personal injury or death arising from its negligence or that of its employees, agents, members or directors or for any misrepresentation that is fraudulent. 14.2 To the utmost extent allowed by law and save as provided above, neither www.sophieconran.com nor any linked company shall be liable to you by reason of any representation, or any implied condition, guarantee, or other term, or any duty at common law, or under the express terms of the contract, or in negligence (whether on the part of www.sophieconran.com or any of its employees, agents, members or directors or otherwise) for any indirect special or resultant loss or damage (including but not limited to loss of profit or loss of saving), expenses, costs, or other claims for compensation whatsoever which arise out of or in connection with the use of the www.sophieconran.com website, the supply of the products or their use of resale by you). 14.3 These limitations of liability, as outlined here, shall apply equally for the benefit of www.sophieconran.com and any other linked company as if references to www.sophieconran.com included references to each linked company. 14.4 Whilst we try and do everything reasonable to try and keep the information on this website up-to-date and correct, www.sophieconran.com do not give any warranty to its completeness or correctness and www.sophieconran.com cannot be held responsible for any omissions, errors or for any resulting implications from the use of this information. 14.5 www.sophieconran.com make all reasonable effort to ensure a reliable and fast service but we do not guarantee that you that your use of this website will be free from interruption or errors and cannot be held responsible for any disruption, loss of or corruption of any material in transit, or loss of or corruption of material or data when downloaded onto computer systems. 14.6 In addition, www.sophieconran.com cannot be held responsible or liable for your use of any websites that are accessible from this website as we do not have any control or responsibility for these.
