Show me your sofas!

I'm on a quest. I'm looking for the holy grail - a sofa which is both modern and comfy, which doesn't have a ridiculously low back but likewise isn't just a stack of little cushions, a sofa which isn't ridiculously oversized but which has room to stretch out, a sofa I can lounge on but which doesn't look like a shapeless bean bag. Also preferably not so big I have to get a glazer in to remove the windows because it won't fit round the awkward corner. And not crazy expensive.

I'm asking too much, aren't I?

IKEA.

It’s modular so can be as long or short as you like. We made ours a corner so that we could both stretch out.

It’s called Vimle :)

I have this one from scs we got it at the start of the year it's soooo comfy, the cushions at the back look low but they are actually perfect. We have a 2 and 3 seater and both are long enough to lie down on. Not sure about the awkward door though they brought ours in the back door which is a straight path to the living room.

Love that Steph, and tbh a corner sofa was always my plan, but the room layout is weird and I'm not convinced we can manage a corner sofa Sad

Knowledge that is exactly the sort of modern-but-comfy I'm looking for. Thinking in neutral tones so I can chuck a couple of cushions on it to brighten it up but it's not a colour commitment.

First time in our own home for years so we're very excited about being able to nest a bit.

We have it in the sort of blue colour it comes in 4 different ones I think and we paid a wee bit extra to have the sturdier foam in the 3 seater and the arm chair because they are the ones that are mostly used and I would say it does make a difference and the cushions keep their shape better than the 2 seater which just has standard foam. It has a really nice sized footstool too if you were looking for one. This is our first couch that we got to pick for our house so I'm still so happy to come home and be able to lounge about on it 😂 scs had a lot of nice ones!
