maybe you have a used sofa or a second-hand floral candy that is not enough. Or maybe your seat cushions are sagging and worn out. If you need a new sofa, you’ve come to the right place. A few of us here at the WIRED Gear team have spent several months testing a batch of some of the most popular sofas you can order online, without ever leaving home. These are our favorites.
As with bed-in-a-box mattresses, ordering a sofa online is easier than it seems. Simply choose what you want, place an order, and voila: several boxes will arrive on your porch. Put the pieces together and you’re done. But it is important to investigate. Many sofa manufacturers offer fabric samples, which you should take advantage of to make sure the color and feel are exactly what you want. Be sure to measure the area where your sofa will be, as well as door frames and stairs for delivery.
Updated June 2024: We added a new sofa and updated prices throughout.
