Cloud Couches

What is a cloud couch?

A cloud couch is a style, not a brand: a low, deep-seated sofa with wide, squared arms and thick, soft cushions that give it a relaxed, cloud-like look. Many are modular, so the seats can be rearranged into a sofa, an L-shape or a U-shape.

What to check before you buy

Seat depth. Deep seats are made for lounging; if you prefer to sit upright, plan on back pillows. Our guide to cushion firmness and fill explains the difference.

Size. Cloud sectionals are big, some well over 10 feet wide. Before you order, measure your room and every doorway, hallway and stair on the way in. Our guide to measuring for a sofa shows how, and the sofa finder checks the fit for you.

Fabric. Choose soft chenille or textured corduroy, and check the cleaning code on each listing (see sofa care).

Frequently asked questions

Are cloud couches comfortable?

Very, for lounging: deep seats and soft, overstuffed cushions let you sink in and stretch out. If you like to sit upright, add a couple of firm back pillows, because the seat depth that makes them great for lounging gives less back support.

How big is a cloud couch?

They vary widely. Ours range from cloud sofas about 81" wide to U-shaped cloud sectionals about 145" wide; each listing gives the exact dimensions. Check them against your room and doorways with our measuring guide.

Do cloud couches come apart?

Many cloud sectionals are modular, so they arrive and move as separate seats; one-piece cloud sofas do not. Each listing says which it is.

What is the coziest, fluffiest type of couch?

A cloud couch. Its deep seats, low arms and plush, pillow-like cushions are made for sinking in, which is why people also call it a fluffy couch, a plush couch or a lounge couch. For the softest sit, look for feather-blend or fiber-wrapped cushions; for more support, choose foam cores.
