The 12 Best Couches of 2023 for Style and Comfort
Couches are often used as the focal point of indoor living spaces, as they give you somewhere to sit, lounge, and socialize. They also come in a wide range of options, which means "buying a sofa is almost like buying a mattress," explains Jessie Neuman of Numi Interior Design. When looking for a new couch, you want to consider how many people will be using it on a regular basis, what kind of fabric will work best with your household, and the overall style of your space.
With that in mind, we tested and evaluated products on their construction, upholstery options, aesthetic, special features, and overall value. We know that buying a couch has a lot to do with personal style, so we've rounded up options that will fit into spaces big or small, classic or modern, formal or informal.

High-Tech Customizable Seating: Burrow Nomad Sofa
What We Like
Several customization options
Stain-resistant upholstery
Built-in USB charger
Easy to assemble
What We Don't Like
If you’re looking for a well-made sofa that you can easily customize to fit your home, the Burrow Nomad Sofa is the way to go. It comes in five different stain-resistant upholstery colors, and you can personalize a variety of other features, including the leg finish, arm shape, and cushion style. You can also add on a moveable chaise, matching ottoman, or lumbar pillows to complete the setup.
This sofa has a sturdy birch frame and triple-layer foam and fiber cushions that deliver a plush yet supportive feel. It has a USB charger integrated into one of the arms—one of our tester’s favorite features—and thanks to its modular design, you can expand or shorten the sofa if needed.
Burrow makes its furniture in America, and the brand uses sustainably sourced wood and fabric from upcycled materials. It ships to your door in compact, easy-to-lift boxes, though you must assemble the sofa yourself. However, the good news is that it doesn’t require any tools thanks to the brand’s unique latching system. (It also comes apart just as easily in case you need to move it somewhere else.)

What Our Testers Say
"As a military family member, I am always considering how versatile a piece of furniture will be in another home. I never know if we will have a large family room or just a small space, so I tend to avoid bulky or oddly shaped furniture. I assembled the Nomad using all three seats, but I could easily shorten it to a loveseat configuration if needed."—Katie Melynn, Product Tester

Sleek mid-century modern style
Removable cushions and covers
Durable kiln-dried wood frame
What We Don’t Like
You’ll make your living room feel elegant and luxurious with the Article Sven Sofa. Covered in a layer of cotton-blend velvet in the color of your choice, this sofa makes a statement with its clean lines, tufted bench seat and back cushions, and round bolster pillows. Available in a number of different color choices, it stands out whether you opt for a cool blue or standout gold. And it’s comfy to relax on, too, thanks to the foam-padded and fiber- and feather-filled cushions. You can even remove the covers as needed for easy cleaning. Plus, the fabric has undergone the Martindale test to survive 50,000 rubs.
In addition to its comfort and style, this velvet couch is also built with a durable solid wood frame. However, over time, its cushions may require fluffing as wear happens. Additionally, while you can remove the cushion covers for cleaning, they can’t be tossed in the wash; they need to be dry cleaned. Overall, though, these small details don’t detract from the couch’s many perks.

Clean, modern lines and styling
Medium-firm supportive cushions
Versatile enough for any aesthetic
What We Don’t Like
With enough room for three people, retro mid-century modern styling and tweed upholstery, and solid, sturdy construction, Mercury Row’s Isley Upholstered Sofa is a great all-around pick. But best of all, this couch comes with an affordable price tag that packs plenty of value. Its versatile styling looks great in almost any living room, with button-tufted back cushions, crisp square arms, and wood cone legs. The cushions offer a good balance of comfort and support thanks to their medium-firm density and sinuous spring construction. A solid and manufactured wood frame offers long-term sturdiness and support, and the deeper seat is popular among taller customers.
However, you don’t have a lot of customization choices when it comes to this budget-friendly couch. It’s only available in one shade of tweed, and only one type of fabric. Some assembly is required, but customers report that it’s not too lengthy of a process (or too challenging!)–you may not even find that you need tools to get this sofa together.

What We Don’t Like
Leather furniture is prized for its high-end appearance and easy-to-clean fabric, and the Pottery Barn Turner Leather Sofa is a well-made piece that could be in your family for years to come. This leather sofa has a modern yet timeless design with square arms and block legs, and there are four sizes to choose from, ranging from 64.5 to 103.5 inches wide. Plus, there are several dozen top-grain leather colors, allowing you to find the perfect match for your decor.
This high-end sofa has deep seats that are ideal for curling up in, and its down-blend cushions offer cloud-like comfort at the end of a long day. It has a kiln-dried hardwood frame for extreme durability, and the adjustable levelers on the legs prevent it from wobbling on uneven floors. The high-quality leather used on these sofas will develop a burnished patina over time, but keep in mind that certain leather finishes are made-to-order and take longer for delivery—sometimes 12 weeks or more.

Casual chic appearance

What We Don’t Like
If you love the casual look of slipcovered couches, the Neva Sofa is luxurious yet comfortable. It comes in 72- or 84-inch lengths and the design features narrow armrests and a single bench cushion. The loose slipcover comes in a variety of natural fabrics, including cotton canvas, linen, and velvet, and it has oversized French seams along the edges for added flair. Several upholstery options are ready to ship and will arrive in just a few weeks, but if you want a made-to-order piece, the production time could be between 12 to 14 weeks.
In addition to its chic aesthetic, the Neva Sofa is exceptionally well-made. It has a kiln-dried hardwood and plywood frame with both webbing and sinuous spring suspension, and you can choose from feather down or poly fill cushions, both of which have high-density foam in the middle for support. The sofa qualifies for free home delivery and comes backed by a limited lifetime warranty.

Chaise can be positioned on either side
Back cushions can be raised for adjustable comfort
Large enough to lay down
What We Don’t Like
If you’re searching for a couch that’ll adapt to your needs, living room setup, and comfort, Ikea’s SLATORP Sofa can step up! This couch is surprisingly adjustable and adaptable, giving you options when it comes to everyday comfort. Built with a chaise lounge, you can choose which side that chaise is positioned on and switch it up whenever you want something different. The high back on this couch is extra-comfortable for those seeking extra neck support, and as an added perk, the back cushions can be adjusted and moved to change the seat depth and your level of back support. And the foam inside each cushion offers a good amount of firmness for those who prefer some bounce over an extra-plush couch.
Just keep in mind that the light color of this couch’s upholstery can attract dirt and stains–and they can be pretty visible if it’s seeing a lot of wear. The upholstery also isn’t the most durable material, and it can show spots of wear under heavy use. This couch’s adjustable nature makes it quite handy and comfortable, but keep in mind that it’s a better choice for homes with less traffic or rugged use.

Modular couches give you plenty of room to relax and lounge, and they’re super handy if you ever need to change up the configuration, add extra seats, or simply rearrange your seating for a new space. Albany Park’s Kova L-Shape Sofa + Ottoman duo is easy to customize, versatile in its options, and wonderfully comfortable. With a kiln-dried hardwood frame that’s built to last plus removable and reversible back and seat cushions, you’ll get just the right combination of support and plush comfort from this couch.

Plus, this modular couch is easy to put together. It arrives in pieces that are easy to lift, attach, and move around as needed for any space. You can add extras over time or swap the layout for a refresh. As a result, assembly is required–but we love that it’s totally customizable.

Lark Manor Rasberry Rolled Arm Sofa Bed Review
What We Like
Good selection of leather colors
Firm but comfortable seat cushions
Supportive queen-sized mattress
What We Don’t Like
Heavy
For a comfortable sofa that doubles as a sleeping spot for out-of-town guests, you can’t go wrong with the Lark Manor Rasberry Sofa Bed. It has a traditional silhouette with rolled arms and three seat cushions, and it’s finished in genuine leather that's available in more than a dozen colors. Plus, when you need an extra bed, the sofa pulls out into a queen-size innerspring mattress, which our tester described as comfortable and supportive.
Because it houses a mattress, this sofa is heavier than many similarly sized options, and you’ll likely need two people to move it. Our tester liked that the back is covered with leather, allowing it to be styled in the middle of the room if needed, and it has a seated weight capacity of 750 pounds, which should be more than enough to comfortably seat two adults. Certain leather finishes may take a month or two to ship to your home, but overall, it’s a well-priced, versatile sofa that could make a useful addition to your living space.

What Our Testers Say
“One person can easily set up and close this sofa bed. The cushions have a tight fit, so they don’t slide around while you’re using the sofa, yet they’re quick to remove. There’s a single handle in the middle of the bed for pulling the mattress out.”—Stacey L. Nash, Product Tester

What We Like
Wide selection of upholstery fabrics and colors
Plush and comfortable bench cushion
Can customize in multiple ways
What We Don’t Like
A loveseat can be the perfect fit in a small living room, studio apartment, or even office in need of extra seating. The Winslow Loveseat from Interior Define is a great pick for any small space, as this two-person couch is compact yet elegant, subtle and soft. It features gentle curves and soft corners so it doesn’t take up a lot of space, with slimmed-down arms and clean lines. For comfort, there’s a nicely medium-firm bench cushion, and you can opt for either a 24-inch or 29-inch seat depth, depending on your preferences and available space. Every one of these loveseats is made to order, so you can customize your couch in multiple ways for the perfect fit.
However, it’s important to note that because the Winslow Loveseat can be customized from its seat comfort to its seat height to its upholstery, there’s a somewhat limited return window if you aren’t happy with the final result. It’s not a dealbreaker by any means, but worth keeping in mind as you place your order.

Soft chenille upholstery

You can kick up your feet—literally—in the cozy Raymour & Flannigan Stanton Wallaway Reclining Sofa. It seats up to three people, and the two end seats have two-position manual recliners that allow you to lean back and relax. Plus, unlike many recliners that bump into objects behind them, this sofa has a wall-hugging design that only needs 4 inches of clearance to lean back.
This reclining sofa is available in three colors, including a soft chenille. It has classic rolled arms and edge piping for a defined appearance, and it even comes with two throw pillows for styling. Pull-cups on either end allow you to engage the recliner, and the hardwood frame can support up to 250 pounds in each seat.

Removable and reversible cushions
26 inches of seat depth
Sinuous spring cushions offer support
What We Don’t Like
If you want a couch that welcomes you with plush, deep seats, Wayfair’s Emilio Upholstered Sofa will fit the bill. Featuring a seat depth of 26 inches, plus removable and reversible cushions, this spacious sofa offers enough room to really sit back and relax–and lay down! The foam-filled cushions are constructed with sinuous springs for a mix of support and plushness, and they’re less prone to sagging over time. An extra four toss pillows are included for extra lounge comfort (and some style, too.) We also like the fact that the seat and back cushion covers are all removable and easy to clean.
When you’re building your ideal deep-seated couch, just keep in mind that this Wayfair model does offer a number of different fabric upholstery options. While many options are highly durable and even built to be stain- and water-resistant, not all fabrics are this tough. Some may be more delicate and prone to wear, so think about your lifestyle when choosing a fabric (and read the fine print on your top picks!)

Final Verdict
If you're looking for a couch that's stylish, comfortable, and versatile, go with the Burrow Block Nomad Sofa. It has a unique modular design and allows you to customize its fabric, legs, armrest shape, and more–and this particular piece can grow with you over time, making your initial investment one that really pays off. For those on a budget, the Winston Porter Bennith Round Arm Loveseat is compact and inexpensive, yet it only comes in one color.
The Spruce / Angelica LeichSize
Before you start shopping, it’s important to measure the space where you want your couch to go. There’s nothing more frustrating than falling in love with a piece of furniture, only to discover it won’t fit in the room.
"Size really matters when it comes to buying a sofa, something too big or too small for your room can really affect the flow of your space," says Neuman. "It should fill the room nicely and feel inviting, but it should never feel like it's overwhelming your space. I like to always do the blue tape test. Buy yourself some blue painter's tape at any hardware store and tape out the dimensions of the sofa on the floor so you get a good idea of how it will feel in the space. "
Also, be sure to measure the doorways and any stairs leading to the room. You’ll want to make sure there’s clearance to fit every piece of the couch into the room.
Type
There are a few common types of couches and sofas that you’ll encounter when shopping. We’ll go into more details about each kind below, but here are the basics you should know.
First, there are standard sofas, which are one straight line and typically between 72- and 84-inches long. These can generally seat three or four people, and they come in a wide range of styles, materials, and price points. Similarly, you’ll find loveseats, which are essentially small couches, measuring 48- to 72-inches long. Loveseats can comfortably seat two people—hence their name—and are a great solution for smaller spaces. Some people like to have a matching sofa and loveseat for a cohesive look in their living room.
Today, sectionals are an incredibly popular style of couch. These modular couches are made up of more than one piece, and they’re commonly L- or U-shaped. Sectionals provide more seating, making them a good solution for large families or big rooms.
There are also sleeper sofas, which transform into a temporary bed, as well as reclining sofas. Your style options may be more limited if you choose one of these specialty couches, but there are still an impressive range of options available at numerous price points.
Bailey Mariner / The Spruce
Style
One of the most challenging parts of buying a couch can be finding a style you like. There are hundreds of styles available today, but here's a rundown of the most popular styles you may want to consider.
- Mid-century: features clean lines, simple legs, and a low profile
- Chesterfield: features rolled arms, tufted back, and often made of leather
- Lawson: features a boxy shape and detached cushions, and prioritizes comfort
- Bridgewater (also called English roll arm): has low arms that lean outward and is very cushy
- Tuxedo: features a boxy shape and its arms are the same height as its back
- Contemporary: modern, unique, and often unconventional
- Camelback: features a curved back with a “hump” in the middle, as well as high arms
- Scandinavian: popularized by IKEA, has clean lines and is minimalistic
- Settee: a specialty loveseat with a high back and shallow depth
- Chaise: an asymmetrical design with just one arm
These are some of the most common couch and sofa styles, but there are many variations of each. As you shop, you’ll want to take note of which features you like and which styles will look best with your existing decor.
Materials
What your couch is made from will not only dictate its appearance, but its durability, ease of cleaning, and more. The first thing you’ll want to consider is the frame material, as a sturdy frame will ensure your sofa lasts for years. Avoid materials like particleboard and plastic, which can warp or break easily. Pine is a low-cost option for frames, but it won’t last as long as a hardwood such as oak, ash, or beech. To test the frame of a sofa, lift one corner up 6 inches off the ground—the other leg should lift up, as well. If it doesn’t, the frame is likely too flexible and prone to warping or breaking.
You’ll also want to consider the filling of a sofa’s cushions. Perhaps the most comfortable, long-lasting option is high-resilient foam, but this can be quite expensive. Polyurethane foam is a popular option thanks to its low cost and ease of care, but you’ll want to make sure it’s a higher density; otherwise, it may deteriorate over time. Polyester fiber is another inexpensive option, but it flattens quickly, so only choose this option if you're looking for a short-term furniture solution. There’s also high-end goose down fill, which is incredibly comfortable, but extremely expensive and requires a lot of maintenance.
Finally, you’ll need to consider the upholstery material, and be sure to weigh both appearance and functionality. If your couch will be getting a lot of use, you’ll need a tough, durable fabric to ensure it lasts for years to come. Here are some of the most popular fabric options and their benefits:
- Leather: durable and easy to clean, but expensive and can fade over time
- Faux leather: durable and easy to clean, but not as long-lasting as real leather
- Cotton: soft and somewhat durable, but stains and wrinkles easily
- Linen: beautiful and upscale, but hard to care for and soils easily
- Microfiber/polyester: soft, durable, easy to clean, and inexpensive
- Chenille: soft and luxe, but hard to clean
- Velvet: soft and stylish, but also trendy
Comfort
Another key consideration when purchasing a sofa is whether it’s comfortable! It’s hard to gauge whether a couch will be comfortable if you’re buying online, so if you’re able to see the piece in person, you should always do so.
"Depending on how much you will be using it, its comfort is both important and subjective to each person," says Neuman. "Some clients love the loose fluffy feeling of down feathers on a sofa, while others prefer for the structure of foam fill. "
When testing a couch for comfort, you should sit and lie down on it. Evaluate whether it’s supportive enough for your needs and easy to get up. You’ll also want to see if your feet can touch the floor when you’re sitting upright—if not, you may want to look for a sofa that has a shorter depth.
Special Features
You can find couches with several special features. For example, some models have either manual or automatic recliners built into the sofa. You can also find couches with built-in drink holders, USB ports, hidden consoles, and more.
Care
As mentioned above, you’ll want to consider how much maintenance you’re willing to put into keeping your sofa looking nice. Certain materials are easy to care for, while others require professional cleaning. This is an especially important consideration if you have pets, kids, or both.
If you want a low-maintenance sofa, look into leather, faux leather, or polyester options. Most of these models resist spills and stains and can simply be wiped down to clean. There are also treated cotton fabrics that resist stains. If you have pets, you’ll want to ensure whatever fabric you choose won’t get caught on their nails and is easy to vacuum.

FAQ
-
"There really isn't one—the terms are used interchangeably," explains Neuman. "Historically, there was a difference in the furniture's arms, but today they mean the same thing." If anything, some people use the term couch to refer to more casual pieces designed for comfort, which sofas are more formal and stylish.
-
For regular cleaning, you can vacuum loose dirt and crumbs and wipe the leather down with a damp cloth and mild hand soap (test in a small area first). Then buff it with a dry cloth—no need to rinse the soap, it acts as a conditioner to the leather. Use talcum powder or cornstarch to get out grease stains and allow it to sit for 15 minutes before brushing away with a soft-bristle brush. For more specific spot cleaning techniques, check out our guide to cleaning leather furniture.
-
Check the label of your upholstered couch: “W” means you can use a water-based cleaner, “S” designates a solvent-based cleaner is safe, “WS” means you can use either, and an “X” means it should be professionally cleaned. To clean with soap and water, combine a half teaspoon of clear dish soap with warm water and gently spread over the fabric without soaking, and then wipe it clean with a damp cloth. For more specific spot treatments of upholstery, check out our guide to washing upholstery fabric.
-
Many online and in-store retailers offer major savings around national holidays. Throughout the summer and during the fall and winter, you can find sales on couches at Wayfair, All Modern, Ashley Furniture, and more.
There are several types of couches and sofas you’ll encounter as you shop, each of which has its own pros and cons.
Standard
As mentioned above, standard sofas are typically between 72- and 84-inches long and can fit three or four people. Beyond these measurements, standard sofas can vary significantly in their depth, style, and cost. You can find a budget sofa for as little as $200 or opt for a custom option that may run $4,000 or more.
Sectional
As their name implies, sectionals are typically made up of two or more sections, and the most common configurations are L- and U-shaped. Depending on the size sectional you choose, you’ll be able to sit four or more people on the sofa at a time.
L-shaped sections can be right-arm- or left-arm-facing, and this refers to which direction the “L” is meant to face. If you’re planning to purchase an L-shaped sectional, make sure to figure out which side the arm needs to be on before you shop. U-shaped sectionals offer even more seating, and they’re a good option for large rooms. Many people place an ottoman or coffee table in the middle of the U, so you may want to take note of how much space is in the center of the configuration if you already have a table to use.
When shopping for a sectional, make sure the various pieces can be firmly connected. Fabric strips typically aren’t strong enough to hold pieces of a sectional together and may tear over time, leading to awkward gaps between the sitting areas.
Sectionals are typically more expensive than standard sofas. Low-end sectionals start around $400 and range up into the thousands for oversized, luxurious models.
Loveseat
Loveseats are smaller sofas designed to seat just two people. Loveseats are generally between 48- and 72-inches long, making them a popular option for apartments and other small spaces. If you’re looking for a fancier loveseat, you may want to consider a settee, which features a high back and shallow seat—designed more for aesthetics than comfort.
You can purchase loveseats individually, and they typically start at around $150. However, you'll also come across living room sets that include a matching sofa and loveseat.
Sleeper
Sleeper sofas, also called pull-out sofas, look like standard couches, but they contain a hidden mattress that folds out, transforming the sofa into a temporary bed. While not the most comfortable surface to sleep on, pull-out sofas are a great option if you frequently have houseguests and don’t have space for a guest bedroom.
When purchasing a sleeper sofa, you’ll want to consider how comfortable the unit is both as a sofa and as a bed. It’s also important to choose the proper size for your space, and if possible, test how easy it is to pull out and pack up the mattress. You can find twin-sized sleeper sofas for around $400, while larger options are more expensive.
Recliner
Similar to reclining chairs, reclining sofas will simultaneously lower you backward and support your feet with a footrest, putting you in a reclined position. Many people find reclining sofas to be more comfortable for watching movies and even sleeping.
Typically, reclining sofas just have one or two seats that can recline, and they’re either manual, meaning you have to pull a lever, or power reclining, meaning it uses electricity to adjust the seat. Power reclining sofas must be plugged into an outlet to work, so keep this in mind as you lay out your decor.
Budget reclining sofas start at around $400, but a high-end model can cost well over $1,000.
Futon
Futons are a type of specialty sofa that, frankly, are hard to explain if you’ve never seen one. They look more like a bench than a sofa, as most models don’t have armrests, and they can be folded out into a sleeping surface.
Futons are typically less expensive—and therefore less comfortable—than sleeper sofas, and they’re a popular option for college dorms, small apartments, and anyone on a budget. You can find a small futon for as little as $50, and even high-end products won’t cost more than $400 or so.

What I Loved
The beauty of Allform’s loveseats and sofas is that they’re all modular. You can literally start out with armchair and continue buying additional seating modules as your living space and family grow.
Combined with their superior attention to design, functionality, and long-term durability, I had to put them at the top of this list.
For a growing family, the 5-seat corner sectional is by far the best choice. Just from a shopping experience alone, it was so easy to pick an upholstery (you can also select free swatches), leg finish, along with optional add-ons like throw pillows and weighted blankets to make your lounging experience as comfy as possible.
To test this one out and the rest of the top contenders on this list, I invited an actual family of four to test out the sofa; kids, pets, and all. Overall, it was a hit! Plus, the performance fabric upholstery was incredibly easy to clean. Over the course of the 8-day test, I also didn’t notice any pilling.
And if you’re still feeling apprehensive, just know that Allform modular sofas come backed with a lifetime frame warranty and a free 100-day at-home trial, meaning you can send it back at no cost if you don’t completely in love it as a long-term living room fixture.
What I Didn’t Love
While the prospect of assembling a 5-seat sectional seems daunting (something a few reviews pointed out,) it couldn’t have been easier to put the modules, armrests, and back cushions together.

- Cleaning Difficulty: Easy
What I Loved
While it’s a little pricier, this model from West Elm is definitely one of the best family sofas out there. It’s similar in shape to Allform’s 5-seater sectional in that it’s a great corner sofa, but with an added chaise lounge.
I loved the ability to customize for either a right or left-facing chaise, plus the two different widths available (83″ or 93″) depending on how large your living room may be. I went with the 83″ for the purpose of this test and it was definitely roomy enough, but for a growing family, you may want to opt for the larger option.
I also chose one of the performance fabric options to gauge how easy the upholstery and reversible cushions would be to clean. Overall, it held up well to both kids and pets but cleaning stains took a bit more elbow grease than with the Allforms sectional.
As a two-piece sectional, the regular seating and chaise sections arrived in separate boxes but with West Elm‘s white glove delivery service, assembly was included, so I didn’t have to worry about that.
What I Didn’t Love
While the white glove delivery was incredibly convenient, I wasn’t exactly a fan of an additional $100+ fee on top of a $3,000 price tag.
3. Mansfield King
Rolled Arm Sofa by Crate & BarrelShop now
- Price: starting at $4,249
- Dimensions: 93″ width x39″ depth x37″ height, mattress: 80″ length x 93″ width
- Cleaning Difficulty: Medium
- Frame Materials: Hardwood, steel suspension
- Upholstery options: 5 standard fabric options, 40+ custom options
What I Loved
Not only is this an incredibly comfortable and utilitarian couch, it’s also one of the most stylish ones on this list, and one of the best sleeper sofas I’ve tested in the past year. What I love about it is that it’s also a sleeper sofa that pulls out to a king-size mattress, which is perfect if your family has guests over. At 80″, it’s definitely longer than a lot of other sleeper sofa mattresses out there.
In terms of comfort, this one and Allform’s sectional were my personal favorites. The test family I brought in did comment that this one seemed “a little more fussy” and high maintenance than the top two choices. And I could see what they meant seeing as how stains required quite a bit of effort to get out.
What I Didn’t Love
This definitely isn’t a sofa for a small space. Also, with a price tag starting above $4,000, it’s definitely more of an investment piece or splurge rather than a practical purchase for most. Additionally, this sofa is made to order, meaning you won’t get it with the standard 2-3 week lead time you’d get from other retailers. Currently, West Elm quotes new orders on this model arriving at least 3 months past the date of ordering.
4. Nomad Sectional by Burrow
Shop Now
- Price: $1,790
- Dimensions: 86″ width x 61″ depth x 33″ height
- Cleaning Difficulty: Medium
- Upholstery options: 5 fabric options
What I Loved
Burrow is an eCommerce brand focused on creating chic, modern sofas and furniture for any room in your home. What I love about the Nomad is its broad appeal (over 800 positive reviews,) and the range of customization options based on your own needs and design preferences. It’s also the only sofa on this list for which you can customize the armrest style (arch, block, or slope.) You can even customize whether or not the back cushions are tufted.
Like Allform, you also get the option of getting swatches before committing to your new sofa. Plus, I appreciated the add-ons like the optional chaise, lumbar pillows, ottomans, and a sleep kit in case you want to have guests over.
What I Didn’t Love
While it has an easy-to-latch modular design, I didn’t find the latch mechanism all that “easy” to operate compared to Allform’s sectional. Additionally, it wasn’t exactly an “easy cleaning” sofa, and took a bit more effort to keep presentable and clean.

- Price: starts at $1,509
- Dimensions: 84″ width x 36″depth x 33″ height
- Cleaning Difficulty: Easy
- Frame Materials: hardwood frame
What I Loved
Both I and the test family loved the performance microfiber upholstery. While it wasn’t the softest or easiest sofa to assemble, it was definitely worth it when it came to the relatively low price. Plus, the solid hardwood frame felt comparable to the more expensive sofas on this list, making it a more durable bargain I could see a lot of families appreciating.
Stylistically, I also loved its chic, mid-century appeal. It features tufted back cushions and solid, square armrests.
What I Didn’t Love
As far as the sofa itself, I wasn’t a huge fan of how the foam cushions weren’t removable or reversible/ Additionally, I noted several customer reviews that complained about colors “looking off” in person compared to how they appeared in the site’s product photography.
I appreciated the additional protection plan, but you should know that it is an additional $143 on top of the sofa’s price tag and delivery fee, and the plan is up after 5 years.

Look for
pet-friendly performance fabricFor all those multi-species families out there, think about loveseats, sofas, and sectionals that can hold up to pet hair and scratches as well as they’re stain-resistant against crayons and apple juice. For instance, you likely won’t be going with a velvet sofa unless it’s specifically a performance velvet that’s easy to clean.
Always be on the look-out for dog-friendly sofas, along with the best sofas for cat people. As a pro-tip, look out for couches with removable slipcovers for the seat cushions, back cushions, and throw pillows.

Rating of the best Anderssen sofas.

ANDERSSEN offers value for money sofas for your home. Here are the models of our factory, which were appreciated by buyers not only in Moscow, but throughout Russia. We order high-quality durable furniture that creates comfort in the house, bringing an atmosphere of warmth and tranquility to the interior.
Top quality sofa rating
If the furniture is designed to combine several functions, it is invariably subject to increased requirements for quality and reliability. Multiple cycles of folding and unfolding are the main factor affecting the durability of the structure. That is why the mechanisms of the sofas responsible for the transformation, at the ANDERSSEN factory, undergo a long-term test for durability. To date, the best sofas for sleeping are in no way inferior in quality and comfort to beds. Specially designed transformation structures allow minimizing the sensations from the joints of individual furniture elements. The most comfortable for sleeping are sofas with accordion and eurobook transformation mechanisms. Let's consider their features in more detail.
Best sofas with accordion mechanism
Accordion ー mechanism with three elements folded in the form of an accordion (accordion). In the assembled state, the headboard element and the middle third of the bed are the back. And the element, which is a footboard when disassembled, becomes a seat when assembled. A very significant advantage of this system is the significant capacity of the bed. It can comfortably accommodate 2 adults and 1 child.
Pay attention to the Goodwin model. When folded, it is a compact upholstered furniture with a length of 152 to 212 cm. That is, you can choose to order a sofa for 2 or 3 full seats. The depth of the model is only 90 cm ー it takes up very little space from the wall.
Unfolded sofa bed features:
- bed with dimensions 90/130/150/165/190 by 200 cm;
- No joints and seams,
- anatomical flat mattress for daily sleep.
At the base of the mattress is high-quality polyurethane foam, which ensures optimal back support during sleep and rest. The sofa is moderately soft, while quite elastic ー it is pleasant to spend time on it with the whole family.
The model is finished with decorative wooden overlays, the shade of which the ANDERSSEN specialist will help you choose depending on the desired color and pattern of the upholstery.
Overview of Eurobook sofas for sleeping
Mechanism eurobook consists of 2 parts: seat and backrest. The eurobook unfolds simply and quickly: the seat rolls out and the backrest lowers. The bed is comfortable for 1 or 2 people.
Eurobook sofas are simple and durable. They are ideal for small spaces, as unfolding does not imply a significant increase in the area of \u200b\u200bthe bed.
The rating of sofas for the living room with the Eurobook mechanism from the ANDERSSEN factory is deservedly headed by the Goodwin-Eurobook sofa. It combines the convenience and compactness of a straight sofa and an incredibly comfortable bed, which is formed when this model is unfolded. Support of a backbone during a dream is provided by the spring block. Thanks to the spring system, the Goodwin model mattress is moderately rigid and elastic enough - the combination is optimal for a healthy sound sleep. Spring sofas are among the most durable on the upholstered furniture market.
A distinctive feature of the Goodwin sofa bed are:
- shallow when folded ー only 98 cm from the wall;
- sufficient length of the sofa when folded ー 3 adults can comfortably sit on it or one adult can lie down without unfolding it;
- when unfolded, the model does not take up much space ー the distance from the wall will be 161 cm.
- There is a spacious laundry box under the seat.
Sofa bed Goodwin harmoniously fit into the interior of a small apartment. In addition to its functional advantages, it is also incredibly cozy, creating a warm, pleasant atmosphere in the room. You can choose any upholstery fabric for this model ー our specialist will help you choose the option that suits the interior of your home.

When folded, with its compactness (the depth of the model is only 91 cm), it forms 3 seats. One person can lie down on it, without laying it out, during the daytime rest.
When unfolded, it is a sleeping place with dimensions of 155 by 190/200 cm. Light-D mattress is made of high quality polyurethane foam. It is quite elastic, provides optimal back support during sleep and rest.
The eurosof transformation mechanism is easy to operate: a section with drawers for linen is pulled forward, and half of the seat reclines on it. Separately, it should be noted that the storage space in this model is very roomy. This sofa will help solve the problem of lack of space for things in the apartment.
Armrests "Light-D" are made of wood. The color of the armrests, as well as the upholstery of the sofa, can be chosen from the ANDERSSEN catalog. Thus, the range of fabrics is represented by more than 5000 types of upholstery materials ー from jacquard and flock to artificial leather.

The best corner sofas for your comfort
- Home
- Blog
- The best corner sofas for your comfort visiting friends or acquaintances? Some look at renovations, others pay attention to the smell of delicious food, but most often our eyes cling to furniture: is it beautiful? is it stylish? is everything comfortable? And most often on the review there is a corner sofa in the living room, because this is the main room where it is customary to receive guests.
But we arrange a beautiful living room not only to make pleasant acquaintances. In the hall we are going to watch movies, relax after work. And often, you have to sleep on the sofa in the living room, especially when the apartment is two-room, and one of the rooms is at the disposal of the child, and parents - what remains.
Here are two reasons why it is so important to put a super-comfortable and beautiful sofa in the living room.
3 factors that determine the comfort of a corner sofa
Let's look at what factors determine that it will be convenient for you to use the sofa, and the selected model will provide you with the level of comfort that you dream of.
Transformation mechanism and filler
The most popular transformation mechanisms for corner sofas: eurobook, dolphin and pantograph. Each of them implies that after laying out the sofa will turn into a comfortable double bed. There should be no height differences or gaps between the seat and the backrest. Ideally, the seat and back are joined closely without forming seams. If there are small irregularities, they can be easily eliminated with a topper.
Corner sofas are filled with: Bonnel reinforced spring blocks, orthopedic base with a layer of elastic (orthopedic) foam, less often pocket spring blocks. These are the most suitable filler options if you are going to use a corner sofa for sleeping, and strive to organize a sleeping place with maximum comfort.
Furniture size and dimensions of the room
Even before buying furniture, you will have to assess whether the chosen model will fit in the room, how proportional its dimensions are to the area of the room and, corny, is there enough space in the room to expand the sofa on occasion.
To choose the right dimensions for upholstered furniture, take a full measurement of the room, write down all measurements on a sheet, indicating also the dimensions of all the furniture that is already installed in the living room or that you are going to use in the interior.
Additional goodies
It's great when a sofa is not only to sit or sleep on. See what additional options you can provide with new furniture in the living room.
If there are wide wooden armrests, they can be used instead of a coffee table: put tea and a plate with buns or biscuits on them; put a laptop and watch movies or work; arrange materials for needlework, and engage in creativity without allocating a separate workshop for it. And there are corners with a built-in coffee table - it's even more convenient.
When the corner is equipped with built-in bedside tables, you can store books, magazines and other useful little things there.
Built-in niches or linen drawers save space in your closet.
How to choose a corner sofa design?
We often prefer a corner sofa because we have heard somewhere that it is beautiful. But all houses and apartments, even with the same layout, are different, just like those who live there. Therefore, instead of giving you one photo of a sofa in the interior and saying that it will be beautiful like this, let's try to figure it out: beautiful - how is it? What to look for and how to choose a stylish corner?
Upholstery color choice
If the walls are decorated in neutral, monochrome shades, you can safely choose upholstery from a bright palette to make the corner in the living room an accent element of the interior.
When the walls are painted in bright colors or covered with wallpaper with ornate complex patterns, bright upholstered furniture will be another spot, but already superfluous, it will tire the eye. Therefore, under the walls with an ornament, it is better to choose a sofa in a restrained palette: coffee, beige or gray.
Upholstery fabric
The strength and durability of the fabric is expressed in terms of Martindale cycles. If there is no other information in the technical description of the furniture than this, it means that a standard furniture fabric has been used. But the more these same Martindale cycles, the stronger and more resistant it is to rubbing, color fading, etc.
Popular upholstery materials: chenille, flock, microvelour, leather and eco-leather. The most expensive and beautiful of them is chenille, it is easy to clean, soft to the touch, durable, withstands cat scratches. Velor is slightly cheaper, but it is more difficult to remove stains from it. Flock - even cheaper, but tougher to the touch. This upholstery is suitable for the corners separating the kitchen and living room.
As for leather and eco-leather, at first they are equally beautiful and sometimes it is even difficult to find differences. But leather still lasts longer than a substitute, and it can be restored, unlike eco-leather.
Combination with a carpet
There is an unwritten rule in the organization of the interior: the carpet should be 20-50 centimeters longer than the sofa, especially if the sofa steps over the edge of the carpet. Or the carpet lies only under the coffee table between the sofa and the wall. A win-win option is to lay a carpet around the entire perimeter of the room.
Space zoning
Corner sofa is increasingly used to divide the room into functional areas. To do this, the corner can be completely integrated into the color palette of the room or adjusted to the color scheme of only that part of the room to which it belongs. For example, the corner stands on the border of the kitchen and living room. The kitchen is dominated by beige, while the living room is dominated by a gray-blue hue. And since the sofa is still an element of the living room, it is also chosen in a gray-blue palette.
How do you know if a corner sofa will last a long time?
The frame material and fittings are responsible for the strength and durability of the sofa. If the frame is solid wood, reinforced with a steel pipe or completely metal, it will not be demolished. Sofa accessories are a layout mechanism. The simpler and more reliable it is, the more years the corner sofa is measured by its manufacturer.
And of course, it makes sense to look at the warranty from the store or from the manufacturer. For example, in the Furniture Shara store, all corner sofas have a 3-year warranty. This means that you are making a purchase for a long time. Our sofas have been tested not only for strength, compliance with ECO standards, etc.
