Two-seater sofa

How do you translate a ‘two-seater sofa’ into Spanish?
Would ‘un sofá de dos plazas’ be correct?
Could we omit ‘de’ and say ‘un sofá dos plazas’

What if we add 'a elegir':
'un sofá dos plazas a elegir'.
Does this change the meaning at all, or does it simply mean we can choose from a range of two-seaters?

Many thanks in advance.

What if we add 'a elegir':
'un sofá de dos plazas a elegir'.

Many thanks in advance.

A pleasure.
