I Test Sofas for a Living — These Are the 8 Best Affordable Ones for Every Home
I’ve seen my fair share of luxe sofas. After all, I look at them in-store every month for AT’s Personal Shopper series. It’s fun to go into a store like Blu Dot or Design Within Reach and pretend like I have a $6,000 couch for a few minutes, but if I’m being honest, my living room seating budget is much lower. After becoming familiar with sofa prices at both low-end retailers, like Wayfair, and more high-end retailers, like West Elm, I’d say $1,500 is a relatively low price you can expect to pay for a sofa that’s still well-made.
I’ve sorted through every single sofa that I and my colleagues have tested and found a handful of stylish yet budget-friendly options. No matter how much space you’re working with or what kind of lifestyle you lead, you’re bound to find at least one model below that suits your home. Who knows — you might even grab a separate sleeper for the guest bedroom!
