Best Sofas of 2020

Buying a sofa is one of the most important purchases you can make for your home: It should look great, feel comfortable, and hold up to extended use. There are so many options to choose from and couches can cost anywhere from hundreds to thousands of dollars, so you want to make sure you’re spending your money on a high quality sofa that’s worth the splurge.

The scientists and engineers at the Good Housekeeping Institute researched sofas from over 50 stores and brands, then surveyed over 3,450 people on our tester panel to get in-depth feedback on the couches they own. Each respondent answered 27 questions about their sofa, giving our team over 93,000 points to read through. We also had our product experts try out the newer brands with less user feedback to make sure the shopping experience was seamless and the quality was top notch. The picks ahead are from brands we love, have unique features with great value, and received rave reviews from our panel.

Not even close. But I don’t regret a penny. It is fantastic."
