The Lift Sofa by Jens Juul Eilersen is a refined, minimalist piece that earns its name from a genuinely clever built-in mechanism. Each backrest can be individually raised to provide neck support whenever you need it, then glided back into position with a single easy movement. Clean lines, no conspicuous details, and a quality of construction that keeps the design relevant year after year. Back cushions are padded with down. Two arm and neck-roll pillows with down padding are included. All cushion covers have zip closures.

This is the Quickship version, upholstered in Jena 26 and available for immediate delivery from Eilersen's warehouse. This model is also available in a full range of upholstery options and three additional sizes. To explore customization options, see below or contact us.

Optional extra cushions can be added to your Lift for more comfort, support, or styling flexibility. These are add-on cushions for the sofa, not a required seat cushion selection.

Optional Add-on
Foam Cushion

Optional Add-on
Down-Top Cushion
A softer accessory cushion with a foam core wrapped in 100% down and small duck feathers in a ribbed featherproof cambric casing. Best for a more relaxed, lived-in feel.
