Sofa or Sectional - Which is Best?

Have you been considering upgrading your living furniture? When it comes to living room furniture, you have several options for furniture arrangements. You can go with recliners, sofas, accent chairs, comfy sectionals and more! It's important to think through your decision on your living room furniture because you will likely have it for a while. Today, our furniture store at the Lake of the Ozarks would like to discuss the difference between a sofa and sectional and help you decide which is best for both your living room and lifestyle.


Which is Best? 

Deciding whether a sectional or a sofa is best in your living room really comes down to your lifestyle, space, and family needs. Ask yourself the following the questions to help determine which is best for you.

Who will be using your sectional or sofa? 

Who will be using your furniture plays a big part in the decision process. Will it be primarily used by family or do you have frequent guests that will be using it? For family, a nice big comfy sectional is great for sinking into after a long day. If you have frequent guests, a sofa might be more appropriate because people won't want to bump into each other on the chaise.

Is Flexibility a Priority? 

If you are limited on space and you decide to go with a sectional, you likely won't have the flexibility to rearrange your furniture in the future. If flexibility is important to you, a sectional might not be the best choice.

How Much Space Do You Have to Work With? 

The amount of space you have to work with plays a big role in determining which furniture piece is best. If you have a lot of space to work with, a sectional is a great option! If you are lacking in space, you may consider going with a sofa an loveseat or recliner to go with it.

What's Your Design Vision? 

Are you trying to create a more elegant or a more casual space? Generally, a sectional is considered more casual. For a more elegant look, consider a sofa and a nice accent chair or two.


Who Will You Use It? 

How do you plan to use your furniture? Do you picture yourself watching the big games with family and friends or reading the newspaper? Will you host gatherings or put your feet up after a long day at work? Try and picture how you will you use your furniture and let that determine which is best - sectional or sofa.
