    Hi, You mentioned that the set you have on promotion is hang split leather on the back etc. What exactly is split leather? PVC or PU?

    For half leather options, would gray be a good option if i were afraid of colors fading at a different rate?

    next, what are the payment terms like? how much deposit and when is the remainder paid?

    I have seen the brand name zolano on your sofas, seems like there are a few companies including yourself getting stocks from them. What makes you different from the rest like mode studio and ion living?If you don't mind can leave me a message at benjamin.lim@gmail.com

    Hi BenjaminLim

    Thank you for your enquiries, the 3 seater and L shape is going at the same price, as this is a promotional item, we are unable to give further discount. The usual selling price for this unit is SGD 2988. I am sad that my previous posts has been deleted by the administrator, in EL all our full leather sofas uses Top Grain leather, that means the leather on the back and sides of the sofas are of the same quality as your seats and back cushions.

    It is market practice that for full leather sofas, split leather are being used for the sides and back, the price for a Top/split full leather sofa is more cost effective than a full top grain leather sofa, however the quality will be compromised. In EL we offer a 5 year warranty for all our sofa sets we do not want to compromise on the quality and the durability, that is why we uses full top grain leather for a full leather sofa set.

    I would like to share with you that we uses corrected bovine leather for our sofa sets, that means, the imperfections are being sanded off and an artificial grain impressed on to the surface and dressed with stain and dyes.

    Unless you are going for full grain which has natural grains and of course you will have to live with the imperfections. The cost of a full grain and a top grain differs greatly. the former being much more premium.

    Lastly, since you needed a sofa end Jan next year its advisable that you book early for a sofa set. In EL our delivery lead time is about 8 to 10 weeks. As for the pricing, if you were to follow our ads a few months back, this unit has been selling at SGD 2299 and it has increased to SGD 2499, there will be some adjustments come December, I hope that you understand that material costs has rising tremendously, especially leather, we are suppressing the price and maintained it at SGD 2499 in order to cope with the economic downturn for the past 1 to 2 months. We all know that in Singapore, prices always go north and never south, hence if you really like to sofa, please book it early!! I really love to see you there again, be part of the EL family which so many of our customers has done and we are still interacting with ecah other in the forum to disucss about the sofa sets that they bought which I think its quite interesting. Thank you and have a nice day!!

    Hi El,

    Hi. I just visited your showroom today. I'm pretty interested in the promotional set with the rounded pillow.

    Was informed that it will come with a motorized slider with a L on the other side. I am looking only at a 3 seater. Was quoted 2499 for a half leather set.

    I am just concerned about going for a half leather option.

    Am just wondering if there is any chance of a further discount? I only need the set around end Jan and looking around now. Was going through your website. BUt it seems that some people say that top grain leather could mean leather that is printed with the patterns? Its rather confusing. I was told that the leather EL uses is 1.3-1.5mm?

    Would be great if there can be any additional discounts which would tempt me further to commit earlier? Not sure if the promo is restricted to certain colors only?
