10 Cloud Couch Dupes That Won’t Break the Bank

With 16 module combinations, 218 fabrics and three different seat depths to choose from, Crate & Barrel’s Lounge 2-piece sofa definitely checks the “versatility” box. But even with all those options, this thick-weave chenille Chai Mossa fabric would be the winner.

When on the hunt for the world’s most comfortable couches, always consider seat depth, cushion-fill material, fabric choices, and its fabrication. The frames and fabric of West Elm’s Harmony modular sofas are hand built and finished in the U.S. to the highest manufacturing standards. Its ultra-soft feather-wrapped cushions create a cloud-like layer on its simple, boxy frame. So, already two clear wins for this cloud couch dupe!

A truly tough modular sofa, each piece is fully finished and can be moved around to form any configuration (there aren’t any connectors). After 20,000 testing cycles, its smooth platform foundation stood up to sagging three times better than a spring system.

Sink-in seat cushions, down-blend lumbar-support pillows and free rein to choose your ideal arm and seat combo make Pottery Barn’s Westwood sectionals one of the most comfortable couches out there. Add in the option of easy-on-easy-off slip covers and a customized, fabric-matching pet furniture throw, and the higher price per piece may just be worth it.

With its puffy, rounded edges and super-soft wool boucle upholstery, the Leigh corner sectional is the most cloud-like cloud couch of the bunch. The low profile and duck-feather-and-dense-foam cushions are just begging for you to fall backwards into its full-on fluffiness.

There are two features that set IKEA’s Finnala sectional apart as a standout in a sea of cloud-couch dupes. The first is storage — the chaise section safely lifts up to provide ample space to stash guest bedding or extra throws. And the second is IKEA’s 10-year limited warranty, because if you’re going to spend this chunk of change, having some guarantees feels good.
