Firstly, it is necessary to measure the length of the sofa, and the distance from one arm to the other arm is the length of the sofa. During the measurement process, it should be noted that the edge of the sofa may not be a straight line, so a center point needs to be used as a reference to align the measurement starting and ending points.
2. Measure width
Similar in length, measuring the width of a sofa requires the distance from one arm to the other arm. When measuring, it is necessary to consider the possibility of corners or curved edges on the sofa, and measurements should be taken along the widest point.

Measuring the height of a sofa requires the distance from the ground to the bottom of the sofa. It should be noted that some sofas may have feet at the bottom, so the height of the feet needs to be measured and added to the measurement results.

Measuring the depth of a sofa requires the distance from the front end of the sofa to the backrest. During the measurement process, it should be noted that there may be grooves or cushions on the sofa. In this case, the point closest to the backrest of the groove or cushion should be used as the starting point for measurement.
Summary:

The center point should be used as a reference and aligned with the measurement starting and ending points; The sofa may have bottom feet, grooves or cushions, and the corresponding height or depth needs to be added or subtracted from the measurement results.
