I Finally Found a Stylish White Sofa That I’m Not Afraid to Use (and It’s on Sale!)

I’ve been working in the media world since the days before the internet existed, starting my career as an assistant for a small publisher at Time Inc. Eventually, I went on to hold editorial roles at Martha Stewart Living, InTouch, and OK! magazines, and contributed to titles such as Travel + Leisure and Brides. On the digital front, I oversaw content for the websites for The Oprah Winfrey Show and The View, and managed People.com’s day-to-day operations as deputy editor. While at People.com, I had the opportunity to join the parent company’s first commerce team, spearheading the shoppable content strategy for brands including People, InStyle, Essence, and Entertainment Weekly. I was excited by this new world of e-commerce and loved providing readers with the best products to suit their lifestyle. That ultimately led me to Apartment Therapy Media, where I currently oversee a team dedicated to testing and writing about products that can help anyone create a healthy, happy home on any budget. (I’m a bargain hunter and never pay full price.) Whether you’re looking for a new sofa, a nonstick frying pan, or a dreamy comforter, we’ll tell you which ones are worth your money.

No piece of furniture is as fresh and crisp-looking as a white sofa — but owning one comes with risks, like showing dirt and staining. This was a dilemma that AT’s Director of Commerce Partnerships and Strategy, Yasmin, faced earlier this year when she was searching for a white sofa that would match her home’s neutral aesthetic. She had concerns that it might not hold up to daily use, and just when she thought that owning a white couch was completely out of the question, she found a solution: 7th Avenue, a brand that makes contemporary modular sofas that are completely stain-resistant.

Yasmin opted for 7th Avenue’s 3-Seat Modular Chaise Sectional, which includes two corner modules and a detached ottoman that you can place on either side. At 94″ wide with 39” cushions, this sofa is best suited to larger spaces — especially if you opt for the extra-deep 47” version, which costs an additional $750. Both models provide plenty of support, thanks to memory foam and down alternative cushions, which are available in medium-firm and medium-soft firmness levels. What really sets this sofa apart, though, are the covers. Available in three fabrics (textured weave, classic weave, and performance velvet) and 11 colors, the covers can be removed and tossed in the washing machine for easy cleaning — a huge win for Yasmin, who is completely delighted by the sofa.

“It’s comfortable and stylish and has extra-deep seats that I can relax on,” she says. “It’s perfect for watching TV and family time, as well as napping.” More importantly, Yasmin adds, “It combines the aesthetic I was seeking with utility. It’s not like a precious museum piece that you can’t enjoy; I can actually use it day to day and not worry about it getting filthy because the covers are washable.” 

If you’re looking for a durable white sofa or stain-resisitant seating of any kind or color, now’s the perfect time to score it because 7th Avenue is holding a sitewide sale. Just use code LABORDAY at checkout to save 10% off your purchase.
