The best sectional sofas have it all: plenty of seating, endless styles for any home decor, and lots of room to comfortably stretch out. As former Architectural Digest editor Benjamin Reynaert puts it, sectionals allow for “a level of customization akin to bespoke furniture, but without the high-shelf costs that come with building a piece from the ground—or sofa leg—up.” But deciding between just the right sectional versus a sofa can be tough. If you’re worried that sectionals can lean a bit informal or have trouble fitting in tight spaces, you’re not the only one. AD is here to help.
In an era where retailers are all about customization and tailoring, we’ve assembled plenty of editor-vetted options to browse. It’s one thing to talk about the virtues of a piece of furniture and quite another to actually put it to a sit test, especially for a splurge that might cost a few thousand dollars. So we sat—and lay, and jumped, and sprawled—to test dozens of different couches in apartments, suburban homes, and rural farmhouses across the Northeast. AD testers ensured that all the details, from ordering to assembly to nap potential, lived up to our expectations.
Here, 12 editor-tested sectionals that range from a more formal Sabai corner sectional to a plush slipcovered piece from Sixpenny. If you’re looking for an investment piece, our editors gave Article and Interior Define couches high marks. For more family den and living room seating, we also scouted super-comfy modular sofas that will work equally for pet cuddles and movie nights. Now, sit back and read on.

The Winner’s Circle
Overall couch rating: A
It’s easy to see what makes Sven a best-seller for Canadian retailer Article. Available in fabric upholstery (including velvet) or leather, the tufted, midcentury–inspired silhouette checks all the boxes if you’re looking for a classic sectional couch. Not too soft, not too deep seated, not too small (or too big!) for a family of three, the Sven is what reviewer Audrey Lee calls the “Golidlocks of couches.” Because of its solid construction, it might take a minute or two to get the lived-in look of a well-worn leather sofa, but we have a feeling it will be worth the wait.

From a visual perspective, this Interior Define sectional is a standout. So much so that you might not expect it to be comfortable for lounging. While the slimmer profile and elegant shape means it’s not necessarily a sprawl-out-and-watch-movies kind of couch, pretty much every factor of an ID can be customized, so it can be if you want it to! Deeper seats? You can do that. Longer chaise? Yes, that too. And it can be ordered in four lengths, ranging from 91 to 123 inches. Plus, if any part of the process feels overwhelming, Interior Define also provides free design consultations online or in its showrooms located throughout the US so it’s just like having your own interior designer on call.

Sabai Design is known for its sustainable approach to furniture—you won’t find chemically-treated upholstery here. In fact, the Essential Corner Sectional uses recycled velvet or upcycled poly. If you want to curate a maximalist vibe like this playful Brooklyn apartment, go for the amber or mustard in the recycled velvet. The pale colorways of the upcycled poly offer a more timeless feel like the sofas in Lana Condor’s peaceful living room. Our tester was influenced by the resurgence of the earth-tone in the color of the year and went with the delicious chocolate hue because it also has a grounding effect on the overall room design.
The mid-size L-shaped sectional fits perfectly in an apartment setting without blocking any doorways, and even allows for space to fit a side table and a lamp. She noted that the seat cushions do feel firm at first, but soften with use. (Unlike couches that can sag or feel like a sinking sand pit.)
“Even if I drop my whole body weight onto it, it doesn’t feel like it’s going to collapse on me—it’s just a nice place to land.” — Lauren Arzbaecher, commerce producer
- Dimensions: 32” H x 88” W x 88” D
- Materials: Recycled velvet (9 colorways) and upcycled poly (5 colorways); Metal and wood leg options (4)
Shipping & Returns
- Shipping: Products shipped in recycled packaging via FedEx Ground, 2–5 week estimated delivery time
- Return Policy: Accept returns within 30-days of delivery. Must repackage for pick-up via FedEx. Refunds take 5–7 business days and are credited to the original form of payment. There are no exchanges. Any piece you’d like to return outside the 30-day window can be sold via Sabai Design buyback program.

Sixpenny is a eco-friendly brand that’s based on the idea of natural comfort (with fans that include Ashley Tisdale and several digital content creators). In fact, all the company’s seating—like the Neva Chaise Sectional—have ethically sourced down feather–stuffed cushions, frames handcrafted from kiln-dried solid hardwood, and linen-cotton covering options made from luxurious, all-natural materials. While you won’t go wrong with the Neva sectional for your home, know that you can spring for the whole Neva line from Sixpenny as well, which includes a chair, daybed, and even an alternative corner sectional—all with different slipcover options to suit your particular decor style.
“For anyone looking for a big and comfortable sectional, it’s such a winner.”—Zoë Sessums, senior digital design editor

You may be tired of hearing us drone on about how adaptable a modular couch can be , but this one may be the most versatile of them all. Enter: Lovesac Sactionals, whose three different base pieces (the Sectional Seat, Wedge Seat, and Storage Seat) can be configured into just about any seating arrangement, from a U-shaped sectional to a traditional L-shaped (and make it easy to convert your configuration into an extra large sectional). What’s more is each Sactionals piece has a removable and machine-washable cover that’s available in more than 200 color options, making it a breeze to replace damaged seating or update your look when you want a change.

A sectional sofa for under $1,500—that can’t be comfortable, right? Not the case, according to our reviewer, Elise Portale. In fact, the Breanna bouclé sectional from Wayfair-owned AllModern exceeded all expectations when it came to quality, comfort, and style, leaving Portale a convert to the “White Couch Life.”
“I can say that the Breanna as a design is truly wonderful. If you have the space for it, you’re not going to be disappointed by the size, comfort, and durability—I promise.” —Elise Portale, contributing writer

Other Modular Sectionals We Like
If you’re looking for a sofa with a modern design that will grow with you, you might want to consider a modular design where seating can be swapped in or out to accommodate changing spaces. Aside from looking great, many brands allow for customization beyond shape, size, and layout, offering modular coffee tables or storage space to be added where needed.

The Burrow is a family-friendly addition to your living spaces no matter what kind of square footage you’re working with. This three-piece sectional that’s just slightly bigger than a loveseat is particularly accommodating to smaller layouts and thoughtfully designed with the flexibility to add more modules to your system should you desire more seating as your family or space changes. Stain-resistant upholstery, solid plywood frame, and CertiPUR-US–certified foam ensures lasting durability and comfort.
“A great starter sofa for a first home or apartment that you won’t have to send to a landfill when you’re ready to move.” —David Kaufman, contributing writer

After a disappointing experience with a sectional in a similar size and color—one that was overly stiff, uninviting, and required near-constant cleaning—our tester Shoko and her husband wondered whether it was possible to find a truly comfortable couch that also managed to be attractive, kid-friendly, and made using materials we felt good about.
This Sundays sectional was the upgrade upgrade they were looking for. Designed with clean lines, deep cushions, and just-right balance of softness and structure, it never appears slouchy or sloppy (even with a three-year-old who has taken to practicing high dives and somersaults on it). It’s even been easy to clean smaller messes and the fabric hasn’t pilled or dulled. Added bonus: The Wind Down’s generously sized, moveable ottoman doubles as a handy surface for trays or toys (just double-check measurements in advance to make sure it’ll fit comfortably!).
- Dimensions: 104″ wide, 82.5 “deep, 34″ high. Seat depth: 27″, seat height: 18”.
- Materials: 62% cotton, 20% linen, 18% viscose. Seat cushion content: fiber fill and high-density foam. Back and throw cushion content: feather fiber fill. Frame material: local birch and plywood. Foot material: solid ash.
Shipping & Returns
- Shipping: Free delivery on all US and Canadian orders, with assembly included for larger items.
- Return Policy: 30-day return policy for non-sale items in original condition. For in-home delivery items, there is a flat fee of $150 per item.

What you see is what you get with the West Elm sectional—and we mean that in the very best way. True to the photos and the description, this couch more than delivers on comfort and style. It’s well made with contract-grade materials, it’s super plush (enough so that it can serve as an extra bed for guests), and its design is low-key enough that it can be accessorized to fit in most homes, classic or contemporary.
“My favorite aspect of the sectional is how plush it is. It truly feels like you’re sitting on a cloud.” —Juliana Ukiomogbe, contributing writer
- Dimensions: 111–121″ wide, 69″ deep, 35″ tall
- Materials: Velvet, linen, twill, and tweed options available, solid and engineered wood, metal springs, polyurethane foam, feather, and poly fiber blend

- Return Policy: 30-day return policy for items in original condition and (7-day policy for quick-ship upholstery items). Final sale for made-to-order products
Another Slipcovered Sectional We Like
This classic beauty features top-of-the-line upholstery, expert craftsmanship, and the delicate touch that only a slipcover and a little skirt action can provide.

Reminiscent of the famed Cloud Couch from RH, the Movie Night product line from Vancouver-based Sundays Company is essentially the Coastal Grandmother in couch form with its easy and breezy slipcovers and relaxed silhouette. As our contributor Emily Farris points out, the performance fabrics can withstand kids and large pets—plus those lovely covers are removable for handwashing or dry-cleaning, and they come in a variety of neutral shades. Feather-filled and built for lounging with extra-deep seats and ample back cushions built around a solid wood frame, the Movie Night is easily one of the best sofas around if you want to kick back with a large group for, among other things, a binge session. If your living room is on the tinier side, but you love the look of the Movie Night family, have no fear: The Condo version of the sectional is designed for smaller spaces.
“It’s big, deep, durable, and super comfortable.” —Emily Farris, contributing writer
- Dimensions: 135″ wide, 90″ deep, 32″ tall
- Materials: Sundays’ signature Brie LiveLife performance fabric (moisture-repellent and stain-resistant)
Shipping & Returns
- Shipping: Free in-home delivery and assembly for customers in Canada and the US, 3–5 week estimated delivery time

Other Stylish Sectionals to Check Out
Though we don’t have the liberty or the New York real estate to try out all the sectionals in the world, we’d really, really like to. Here’s our wish list of some of the dreamiest sectionals we’ve seen thus far that we like (and think you will, too), but haven’t gotten a chance to check out in person.
A Sexy Sectional: If you’re big on curves and beefy cushions, we’d love to introduce you to Carson (maybe we can say hello together?) Carson, from afar, seems like the kind of couch that would make any living room look like a heavenly hotel. Not quite a conversation pit, but a cushy sofa that has the same sink-in-able feel, it’s made up of four modular components that you can Tetris together or draw apart so people can sit on them in various areas of the room.

A Friendly Sectional: Conversation pits may have been the groovy children of ’70s sectionals, but that doesn’t mean they are passé. Designer Sarah Ellison took to the design with a more contemporary flair that stayed true to generous seating and channel tufting, but in a more streamlined way. The sleek, sloping armrests are clearly attuned to today’s living. The four colorways lean into creams and neutrals, but the Piccolo, a chocolate-hued velvet, is an especially on-trend choice for 2025.

While a budget-friendly pick, the cushions are padded by foam that covers coil springs so you’ll get plenty of support. But if you need even more padding, the four throw pillows are also included.

A Cushy Sectional: This moss textured corduroy corner sectional is essentially two loveseats and an ottoman, which you can tack on at the end or use in the center as a makeshift coffee table. While a budget-friendly pick, the cushions are padded by foam that covers coil springs so you’ll get plenty of support. But if you need even more padding, the four throw pillows are also included.
The U-Pick Sectional: Think of the Anthropologie Celine modular sectional as a “choose your own adventure” couch. Not only can you customize the size and shape, but you can also go rogue and mix and match the baby blue and beige colorways for the ultimate play on check patterns. We appreciate that the ottoman comes in a small and large size so you won’t have to worry about an ill- fitting design. Plus, the top flips into a tray with a pine base.

A Curvy Sectional: The asymmetrical silhouette of the Kaufman two-piece chaise has curves in all the right places. For all its fancy Italianate looks, the sectional is still comfy with a medium firmness cushion, a three on a scale of 1 to 5. Eco-conscious homeowners will also be glad to know that it’s Greenguard Gold Certified, meaning it’s been screened for 10,000 chemicals and VOCs.

West Elm Kaufman 2-Piece Chaise Sectional
A Curvy Sectional: The asymmetrical silhouette of the Kaufman two-piece chaise has curves in all the right places.

Eco-conscious homeowners will also be glad to know that it’s Greenguard Gold Certified, meaning it’s been screened for 10,000 chemicals and VOCs.
A Funky Sectional: Investing in an iconic sofa is a bit like buying a piece of art and the Hans Hopfer Mah Jong sectional should be part of your life’s gallery. The modular seating was originally designed in the 1970s exclusively for Roche Bobois and like the Chinese tile game synonymous with its name, the compositions are endless—convert the cushions into an armchair, a bed, sofa, or an island in your living room. The kaleidoscopic patterns are a dream for a maximalist setup and can accommodate a party of eight.

The kaleidoscopic patterns are a dream for a maximalist setup and can accommodate a party of eight.
A Linen Sectional: Fans of Pierre Frey will love the textured linen upholstery of the Truro sectional that is quiet luxury at its finest. Anchored by a solid oak base, the feather-wrapped cushions are more like a pedestal than your basic couch seat. The armrests allow for ample room lean back and lounge. It’s a thing of beauty.

How We Tested
There are many factors we considered for each of our reviews to give you the insight you need to select the best sectional sofa for your home, namely the following:
Ordering and customization process: Shallow seats or deep seats, armrests or armless, right-facing chaise or left-facing chaise, down seat cushions or foam cushioning, upholstery or leather, L-shape or U-shape—each of the sectionals we tested has possibilities. We also documented the lead times and expected delivery timelines for each model.
Couch delivery and assembly: Curbside or white-glove, fully assembled or DIY. And, if DIY, how many pieces did the sofa arrive in and how difficult was the assembly?
After installation: Here we asked some tough functionality questions of each sectional: Is it practical for a modern home? Is the couch kid- and/or pet-friendly? What are the care and cleaning instructions? And did it look better IRL than in the photos?
One year update: Where possible, we asked if our testers still stood by their original reviews. Some of the questions we asked included:
