Oversized Sofas

What counts as an oversized couch?

An oversized couch is wider, deeper or both than a standard sofa, which is about 84 inches wide and 36 to 40 inches deep. Oversized sofas give more room per seat for lounging, and oversized sectionals can run past 130 inches on the long side.

Will an oversized couch fit my room?

Measure the wall and the floor area, then leave about 30 to 36 inches for walkways and about 18 inches between the seat and the coffee table. Check doorways too: many oversized sectionals ship in sections or compressed, which makes them easier to get inside. See the sofa size guide.

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.

Frequently asked questions

How deep is an oversized couch?

Standard sofas are about 36 to 40 inches deep overall. Oversized and deep sofas are often 40 to 45 inches or more, which leaves room to curl up or lie back.

Is an oversized couch good for a small living room?

Usually not: it can crowd walkways. In a small room, one oversized sofa without extra chairs can work, but a small sofa or small sectional is the safer choice.
