Ever since I bought this used sofa, I’ve been waking up sneezing with itchy eyes every morning… can a sofa cause allergies or is this just a coincidence?
A sofa itself does not directly cause allergies, but it can become a major source of allergens.
Upholstered sofas easily trap dust mites, pet dander, mold, and pollen, which can trigger sneezing, allergic rhinitis, or skin irritation.
Studies show that fabric furniture is one of the highest indoor reservoirs of dust mites, especially when humidity exceeds 50%, which promotes their growth.
If symptoms persist, consider deep cleaning or switching to anti-allergy materials.
