A Couch With Pull Out Ottoman Can Help a Small Space Host Guests

A pull-out ottoman can be used to accommodate guests in a small space without sacrificing storage space or floor space. These sofas are constructed of engineered woods and kiln-dried hardwoods that look sleek and durable.

This model by Pottery Barn features a tufted shape with an arm that is tall and rolled, as well as tufts, giving it romantic English look. It's covered in pet- and kid-friendly performance fabrics that come in more than 100 shades.

1. Pottery Barn

Pottery Barn has positioned itself among the top brands for home decor by embracing an elevated rustic look that appeals to those with modern sensibilities but yearn for heritage-style furniture. The brand is synonymous with elegant living and entertaining. It's not difficult to see why this demographic likes the way they display their catalogs and images on their website.

While the majority of the fabric-upholstered sofas at Pottery Barn is made in America, the majority leather sofas are imported. This is standard for the industry and is aspect that makes Pottery Barn a good choice for shoppers who are trying to stay within their budget while also looking for high-end furniture.

The quality of furniture at Pottery Barn is good for the price and their upholstered sofas are durable and comfortable to them. The frames are made from engineered wood, or a combination of the two. The company does a good job of expressing their commitment to sustainability with images and descriptions that show what kind of wood is used, for example, FSC-certified wood or BIFMA compliant wood. They are also one of the first retailers who work with The Renewal Workshop, which aims to reuse or repurpose products that have been damaged or no longer in demand. This helps reduce the amount of waste that they leave to landfills.

Pottery Barn's customer support is top-notch. They make it easy to personalize your order and you can easily change fabric swatches. The color swatches they provide are accurate and it's nice that you can also select leather swatches. The biggest issue I have with their website is that the sofa images do not update when you change the fabric, and it can be difficult to get a feel of how the couch will appear in person with the new upholstery.

2. Anthropologie

Anthropologie's bohemian rhapsody style is popular with trendsetters and free spirits. The sofa collection is no exception. The retailer was founded in 1992 and is now part of the URBN group (which includes Urban Outfitters Free People and BHLDN). Their brand is about creating the look that is as unique as you are.

Their online storefront looks similar to an art gallery, with every sofa being the center of attention. The many photos for each couch tell a visual story, giving the viewer a sense of personality and style. You can zoom into the finer details and textures of the fabric. This method of design is a great alternative to other furniture websites which can feel like scrolling down a sea of the exact same sofas.

It is important to note that the majority of Anthropologie's sofas are made to order, which adds to the overall cost and timeline of your purchase. However Anthropologie is making an effort to reduce their environmental footprint by making use of recycled fibers and responsibly procured wood. We also appreciate the one year warranty that they provide which is a step up over the standard warranties offered by retailers.

The Anthropologie sleeper sofa features an elegant design that hides the queen-sized mattress. It is available in velvet, linen and performance linen in more than 10 colors.

The Anthropologie Homebody Sofa is another standout option. It comes with an integrated chaise for the ultimate comfort. It's customizable, sectional with pull out bed and storage up to three reclining seats, making it possible to find the ideal configuration for your space. It's more expensive than other options, but the comfort factor is worth it.

3. Joybird

Joybird is a pioneer in the online furniture space. Their website is professionally designed, and it's as if you're scrolling through an Instagram feed.

Joybird offers an unrestricted warranty of life for frames, joints and sinuous springs. They also offer a five-year Extended Warranty for accidents as well as little surprises (like tears or stains).

I like that they have a page that tells you exactly how to take care of their furniture and fabric. They offer a list of recommended cleaners and instructions on how to vacuum or steam your sofa. I would like to see more furniture stores would include this useful information!

On their product pages they provide two image carousels on their product pages, one for showing the couch from all angles and the other for displaying the features and lifestyle. The only drawback is the details can be lost if you choose a dark fabric. It's difficult to determine the texture and color.

They offer free fabric swatches, however they're shipped in a large container and can be a waste for those who only want a handful of samples. It's also a bit disappointing that they do not offer a variety of stain colors for their sofas.

4. Apt 2B

The company was founded on the notion of offering better quality alternatives to mass-produced furniture, and making luxurious furniture more affordable, Apt 2B has grown into a top online retailer for contemporary furniture at reasonable prices.

In addition to a great choice of fabrics, Apt 2B also offers various customizable features that make these couches more appealing. Many of their fabrics have 100,000 double rub counts which means they can withstand a lot wear and tear, and are easy-to-clean. Certain of their fabrics have a limited warranty.

The brand also offers custom options for their products that allow customers to select the size and color as well as upholstery. In fact the sectionals of the company can be expanded to fit almost every living room layout. They are designed with flexibility in mind. They are a great option for smaller apartments as well as ranch-style homes and large homes.
