Pebl Tolo 3 Seat Sofa, one sofa that changes with the day
The Tolo 3 Seat is the anchor piece of the Tolo collection, a generous 236cm outdoor sofa built on a full aluminium frame and hand woven in 6mm olefin rope. It seats three comfortably, and it is designed to be lived on rather than looked at.
Tolo is designed by Robin Delaere for Pebl, a Belgian studio whose work is built around craftsmanship and quiet, timeless shapes with a modular twist. The sofa is a Red Dot Award winner.
What sets it apart is Pebl's FLEX SEATING SYSTEM. The backrest flips, so the same sofa moves from upright seating when people are over, to a deep relaxed lounge with a coffee, to a flat daybed for lying in the sun. It takes a few seconds and needs no tools and no extra parts.
The frame is Tiger powder coated aluminium, so it will not rust and stays light enough to move around a deck or terrace on your own. The olefin rope was chosen for weather resistance, colourfastness and the way it feels against bare skin. Four loose pillows are included, two large and two small.

Care & Cleaning
Rinse the rope and frame with fresh water and wipe with a soft cloth and mild soapy water. Avoid solvents, bleach and abrasive pads, which will dull the powder coating. Bring cushions and pillows inside, or store them in a dry place, when the sofa is not in use for long periods. In coastal areas rinse the frame more often to clear salt spray.

Furniture Cover for the Pebl Tolo 3-Seat Sofa, cut to fit at 237cm wide in waterproof 300D polyester with a PU coating.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Pebl flex seating system?
It lets one sofa work three ways. Regular seating is upright and social. Flip the backrest for deep seating. Adjust the cushions again for a flat lounge. No tools and no extra parts.
Is a cover available?
Yes. Purpose made covers are available for the Tolo sofas, the lounge chair and the nine piece dining set, in 300D polyester with a PU coating. Fit a cover only once the furniture is clean and dry.
How do I look after it?
Rinse the rope and the aluminium frame with fresh water, then wipe with a soft cloth and mild soapy water. Avoid solvents, bleach and abrasive pads. In coastal areas rinse the frame more often to clear salt spray.
Please note: rope and fabric colours may vary very slightly between production batches.
