When shopping for the most comfortable sectional sofas, there are two things to keep in mind. First, you’ll want to find options that come with pillowy soft cushions; something that makes you feel like you’re melting into a cloud will make midday naps even better (and if you’re looking for the best cloud couch alternatives, we’ve got you). Secondly, you’ll also need those same cushions to strike a balance of being firm enough to withstand all of those Netflix binge sessions—after all, the time that you will spend lounging on your couch adds up over the years. So, it’s crucial to find a sofa that can do double duty, offering both plush comfort and long-lasting firmness.

It can be tough to make a decision online, but luckily, there are thousands of reviews that can help make a more informed decision. And I’ve sifted through the abyss of feedback to unearth the most comfortable sectional sofas around. It doesn’t matter if you’re into coastal California cool vibes or architectural mid-century aesthetic. Below, you’ll find a mixture of options to elevate your space.

Customer review: “UGHHH I’m in love! I was drooling over this sofa, and after spending wayyyy too much time looking for exactly what I wanted (chaise sectional, offwhite, reversible chaise, removable covers, organic shape) I finally bit the bullet and bought it. It is expensive but for a sofa that ticked off all my boxes, the prices were like 3k+, so relatively this was great. It looks even more beautiful in real life esp in the sunlight.

If anyone was confused like I was, the legs are kind of light toned wood.

It’s pretty comfortable, it’s not like sinking into a cloud comfy but it’s comfy enough to want to sit here and not get up lol. And yes all the covers are removable apart from the base/arms.

I would totally recommend!”

Customer review: “We’ve had this sofa for a year and honestly couldn’t be happier. I was worried about buying a sofa without ever seeing/sitting on it but it’s exactly what I wanted. The cushions were a little stiff and noisy at first but that quickly went away. The fabric is so easy to keep clean, and I have a 130-pound dog who thinks it’s funny to jump on the couch when his paws are muddy. It still looks brand new. The depth is not designed for those who like to sit straight up with their feet on the floor, so keep that in mind.”
