Frequently asked questions

Will a wooden sofa arm tray fit my sofa?

Our wooden sofa arm trays are designed to fit most standard sofa armrests up to approximately 20–22 cm (8–8.5 inches) wide. The tray slides over the arm from above and sits stable by its own weight. For very wide or rounded arms, measure your armrest width before ordering and contact us to confirm fit.

How do I stop the sofa arm tray from sliding?

Our trays use gravity and the natural grip of wood to stay in place on the armrest. On very smooth fabric or leather sofas, you can add a thin non-slip mat under the tray (cut from any non-slip drawer liner). The weight of a drink on the tray surface also helps keep it stable during normal use.

Can I use a sofa arm tray as a laptop stand on the couch?

Yes — many customers use their wooden couch arm tray as a compact laptop or tablet stand while relaxing on the sofa. The flat tray surface comfortably holds a 13–15 inch laptop. The phone slot can also hold a tablet vertically for video calls or streaming.

Does the sofa tray protect the sofa arm from damage?

Yes — that is one of the main reasons customers buy a sofa arm tray. The tray covers the top and sides of the armrest, protecting the fabric or leather from drink rings, food spills, TV remote scratches and general wear. This is especially useful for light-coloured sofas and for families with young children.

What is the difference between the sofa arm tray colours?

Natural ash is a light warm grain — the most neutral finish. Walnut is darker and richer, ideal for darker sofas and mid-century interiors. Vintage finish has an aged appearance that complements rustic and boho interiors. Burned wood has a deep charred surface with strong contrast — best for bold, industrial or eclectic living rooms. Exotic colors (grey, yellow, red, beige) are painted finishes for matching a specific sofa or decor palette.

Can the sofa arm tray be personalised?

Yes — several designs can be engraved with a name, initials or short message, making them a popular personalised housewarming gift or birthday present. Contact us before ordering to discuss engraving options and to confirm availability for your chosen design and finish.

Do you ship sofa arm trays to the US?

Yes — we ship worldwide from Latvia, Europe. US delivery typically takes 7–14 business days. Each tray arrives fully finished and ready to use — no assembly needed.
