The Ebern Designs 2231 series is a modular sectional sofa. Assembly involves attaching the feet to the base, connecting the backrests/handrails, and joining the modules together using the provided Velcro strips. If cushions appear creased or flat due to compressed packaging, pat them several times and place them in sunlight for approximately 10 minutes to help them fluff up.
Assembly instructions
The assembly process is similar for all modules (Left Armrest, Right Armrest, Middle Seat, and Ottoman). Follow these general steps for each piece:

- Step 1: Turn the seat frame upside down and screw the feet into the designated holes in a clockwise direction.
- Step 2: Attach the backrest or handrail to the seat frame. Ensure all brackets are aligned correctly.
- Step 3: Secure the back cushions and seat bags onto the frame.
- Step 4: Place the pillows and final cushions as indicated in the specific module diagram.
Connecting the sectional
To create the full sectional configuration, place the desired modules (2231-L, 2231-R, Middle Seats, and Ottomans) next to each other. Use the provided Velcro connection strips to secure the modules together at the base, ensuring the sofa remains stable and the pieces do not slide apart.

Cushion care
Because the product is shipped in compressed packaging, the covers may have creases upon arrival. This is normal and will not affect the use of the sofa. To restore the shape and remove creases:
- Pat the cushions and backrests several times.
- Place the cushions in sunlight for about 10 minutes to allow them to fluff up.
- Wait for a short period; the creases will naturally smooth out over time.
