Sofas & sectionals

Seriously comfortable sofas

Finding the perfect sofa could be considered an art form. Size, material, color, upholstery, shape, features and overall design – they all need to be considered. Otherwise, you’ll end up with a couch that doesn’t fit your space, match your overall interior, or meet your needs. The choice can truly make or break the look, feel and functionality of an entire living room.

Our wide selection of different styles, colors and types of sofas helps ensure you can find your perfect piece of furniture, no matter your budget or style. If you’re on the lookout for a three seat sofa, sofa with chaise lounge, sectional, loveseat or a modular sofa, you’ll find it here. And to help you even further, we've put together a quick guide to assist you in your choice.

What type of sofa do you need?

First, you should consider what you’ll be using your sofa for. Without a clear purpose, it’ll be hard to make a well-founded decision. And a sofa isn’t something you’ll want to be updating frequently.

Sectional couches give you room to spare

Is it to be an elegant centerpiece in a modern living room, stacked with colorful throw pillows? Or a place where the entire family can gather for the Friday pizza dinner and movie marathons? Then you should be looking at sectional sofas to make sure there’s enough room for everyone.

The best sofas and loveseats for small spaces

If you’re living in a smaller space, you might be considering a sleeper sofa. And you should! It’s the perfect solution to a tricky problem: it’s a chill place to hang out by day, and a soft and relaxing bed by night. Simply fold out the mattress when it’s time to go to bed and then tuck it away behind or below the cushions in the morning.

Wondering what to do with the cushions and comforter when you’re not using the sofa as a bed? No problem; get yourself a sleeper sofa with storage where you can place everything when you don’t need it.

Simply don't have the space to make a sleeper sofa work? Consider a loveseat for everyday relaxing and lounging.

Don’t forget to measure the space for your sofa

Make sure to measure your room properly so you can find a balance between your sofa and the rest of the furniture. You want the area to feel calm, not crowded.

Start by measuring the available floor space and compare it with the sofa’s length and depth. Check the sofa’s height, too, especially if it will sit beneath a window or against another wall feature. Seat depth is another detail worth considering. Around 20 to 22 inches offers a more upright sit, while deeper seats give you more space to stretch out.

Once you have your measurements, you can decide on the shape of your sofa. Do you have enough room for an L-shaped or U-shaped sofa? Or should you opt for a rectangular loveseat or three-seat sofa?

And don’t just measure the final destination. Check doorways, hallways, stairways and any tight corners your sofa or sectional will need to pass through on its way into the room. A sofa that fits your space perfectly still needs a clear path to get there.

Finding the best color or pattern for your couch

Once you’ve decided on the size and type of sofa, you need to choose a style and material to complement the rest of the room and its interior. For example, if your style leans more toward modern sofas and home decor, a neutral-hued sofa in a minimalist style will help create a well-balanced impression.

If you’re a bit more colorful and bold with your home style, you could also consider traditional and modern couches in patterned fabrics. It could be the perfect addition to really make the room pop. And if you’re going for a complete look, don’t forget to coordinate with stylish curtains and nice, soft rugs.

Look at the colors already in your space, too. Sofas and sectionals don't have to match your rug, curtains or walls exactly, but choosing colors with similar undertones can help the room feel more cohesive. If the rest of your room already has plenty of color or pattern, a solid sofa can bring some balance. In a more neutral space, a colorful or patterned couch can become the focal point that grounds everything.

And don’t forget to factor in real life: messy kiddos, muddy paw prints and popcorn between the seats. Darker colors and patterns can be a little more forgiving when it comes to everyday wear and tear.

How to choose the best material for your sofa or couch

When choosing a sofa material, think about comfort, durability and how much upkeep you’re comfortable with.

Fabric sofas

Fabric upholstery offers plenty of options when it comes to color and texture.

Benefits of fabric sofas:

• A wide variety of colors, patterns and textures to suit different styles
• Tightly woven fabrics can be a durable choice for households with kids or pets
• Removeable, machine-washable covers available on some sofas for easy clean up

Leather sofas

Leather combines a polished look with a surface designed to stand up to everyday use; however, it does need to be conditioned occasionally.

Benefits of leather sofas:

• Durable and made to stand up to frequent use
• Smooth surface makes crumbs and pet hair easier to remove
• Develops a natural patina and character over time

In the end, the best material for your sofa or sectional is the one that fits the way you live and lounge.
